Center of New City, a com-
munity in suburban Rock-
land County about 40 miles
from New York City. No one
was injured by the blast
which caused an estimated
$20,000 damage.
According to Murray Co-
hen, a spokesman for the
center, the bombing was
motivated by anti-
Semitism. He said other in-
cidents included the theft of
four Torah scrolls from
Temple Beth Shalom in
New City several months
ago.
New City detectives said
their investigation has
turned up no suspects so far
but they expressed doubt
that anti-Semites were in-
volved.
Meanwhile, a spate of
racial incidents, aimed
mainly at Jews and
blacks in suburban
Montgomery County,
Md., has angered County
Executive Charles Gil-
christ.
He has urged the pro-
secutor's office to transmit
the "unmistakable message
that this kind of conduct
will not be tolerated in

Gov. Harry Hughes of
Maryland has also called_ on
state prosecutors to crack
down on "misguided hate-
mongers who seem to
emerge during times of eco-
nomic stress and emotional
strain."
On June 25, five white
teen-agers sprayed a caustic
material from a fire-
extinguisher on a group of
blacks in Wheaton. On June
7, a Rockville man found his
car tarred and daubed with
anti-Semitic graffiti.
Less than two weeks
earlier, anti-Semitic slo-
gans were written on the
door of a Rockville
school and a day earlier a
swastika was painted on
the sidewalk in front of a
local synagogue.

Leaflets
youngsters to join the "Klan
Youth Corps" have been
distributed openly at county
schools. In all, 39 incidents
of cross-burning, harass-
ment, vandalism and as-
saults have been reported to
the police during the first
six months of this year com-
pared to fewer than 25 dur-
ing all of last year and less
than a dozen the year be-
fore.
In a related development,
some corporate doors are
still closed to Jews despite
the progress that has been
made in opening America's
executive suite to Jewish
executives, it was agreed at
a meeting of business lead-
ers, academicians and man-
agement executives, spon-
sored by a joint project of the
American Jewish - Commit-
tee and the Federation Em-
ployment and Guidance
Service (FEGS).
William Ellinghaus,
president of the American
Telephone and Telegraph
Co., a participant in the con-
ference of the New York
Task Force on the Executive
Suite, said it was in "the
best interest" of business to
stand up "and be counted
among those working to
eliminate religious dis-
crimination."
The Task Force is the
joint project of the AJ-
Committee and the
FEGS.
In Washington, the anti-
Defamation League of Bnai
Brith told a Senate hearing
that government required
affirmative action pro-
grams have "spawned a new
form of racial discrimina-
tion through insistance on
proportionality to be
achieved through the use of
numerical goals and timet-
ables."
In testimony before the
Senate Judiciary Subcom-
mittee on the Constitution,
Larry M. Lavinsky, vice
chairman of ADL's national
commission, said the ADL
fully supports affirmative
action to correct past dis-
criminatory hiring prac-
tices.
He proposed guidelines
for "an effective federal af-
firmative action program
without discriminatory ra-
cial quotas or preferences.":
• Government required
affirmative action should be
limited to circumstances
indicating past or present
discrimination by em-
ployers.
• Affirmative action
should be achieved through
"systematic recruitment ef-
forts and through training
programs designed to in-
crease the pool of qualified
minority applicants."
• No one should be hired
without meeting qualifica-
tions applicable to all other
employees and "the most
qualified candidate should
get the job without regard to
race, color, religion, sex or
national origin."
• Goals and timetables
should not be required by
government.
• Compliance with affir-
mative action requirements
should be based on "good
faith, recruitment and
and
efforts
training
whether progress is being
made, without regard to any
preconceived numerical
targets."

NEW YORK — The
American Jewish Commit-
tee has urged President Re-
agan and Secretary of State
Haig to fill promptly the
position of assistant secre-
tary of state for human
rights, following the with-
drawal of Ernest Lefever

post.
In a letter to President
Reagan, Maynard I. Wish-
ner, AJCommittee

the establishment of the
office of assistant secretary
