ing the torch are (from left) Irwin L Cohn, the dinner chairman;

and brass and has an olivewood handle. Depicted on the torch are the
Menora, the hammer symbol of Judah Maccabee and the ancient
Temple in Jerusalem, the only remaining wall known as the Western
Wall or the Wailing Wall. The translation of the Hebrew inscription
on the torch refers to Israel and reads: "Her freedom shall burn as
a torch."

NEWARK (JTA)—A hearing
has been set for June 5 in the first
civil rights case in this state in
which a home owner who allegedly
violated anti-discrimination stat-
utes in blocking the sale of a
neighboring house to a Jew, faces
the same punitive damages hith-
erto applied only to real estate
brokers. George S. Pfaus, director
of the civil rights division, the
state's complaint is against John
C. McDonough, 43, president of the
R. A. McDonough Co., of Orange,
one of New Jersey's largest tire
dealers.
According to affidavits filed in d-
irector George Pfaus' Newark
office of the State Civil Rights Di-
vsion, McDonough allegedly
blocked the sale of a $75,000 house
next to his in Essex Falls, to My-
ron S. Lehman. The sellers, Mr.
and Mrs. Christian Heidt
agreed on price with Lehman.
Division affidavits indicate
that when McDonough heard
of the sale to a Jew he "raised
holy hell in the neighborhood."
McDonough denied, in an inter-
view, that he had attempted to
interfere with the sale, but re-
peated his opposition to Lehman
at a conciliation conference ar-
ranged by the state. Lehman
said that when be attempted to
arrange an interview with
McDonough at his office, the
latter refused, telling him, "I
moved from South Orange to get
away from your kind of people."
Lehman subsequently purchased
an $85,000 house in Short Hills
Pfaus said that if McDonough was
found guilty of the charge ,in a
division hearing, he could be or-
dered to pay the additional $10,000
that Lehman had to pay for an-
other house as well as the fee lost
by the real estate broker and the
lawyers who handled the aborted
transaction.
The finding of the division is en-
forceable by the courts and can be
appealed in the appellate division
of Superior Court.

Jewish Asceticism
While the general temper in

tain Kabbalistic and Hasidic sects
in Europe valued and even prac-
ticed it.
NEW YORK (JTA)—Jars, ves-
