Fascination Over U.S. Jewry
in Author Jean Baer's Volume

Jean Baer became fasci-
nated over the Jewish com-
mitments which became
evident in her interviews
incorporated in "The Self-
Chosen," her sixth Arbour
House-published book. The
reader emerges from read-
ing her reports with equal
fascination. She passed it
on to her numerous audi-
ences she reached here, on
radio, television and in the
press, during a brief visit to
introduce her book to the
Michigan communities.
Ms. Baer was intrigued
by many of the candidates
for her interviews. She
shared enthusiasm with
many, emerged as an ad-

Factory Raids
Ruled Illegal

NEW YORK — The
American Jewish Commit-
tee has hailed a ruling of a
federal appeals court that
the Immigration and
Naturalization Service vio-
lated the U.S. Constitution
when it raided factories in
searches for illegal aliens.
The AJCommittee had
joined with the Mexican
American Legal Defense
and Education Fund in a
brief in support of the Inter-
national Ladies Garment
Workers Union, which had
brought suit to halt the
raids. The brief, filed with
the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Ninth Circuit,
argued that "ittis intoler-
able to expose - American
citizens to detention and
questioning on no more of a
basis than their racial and
ethnic background," and
that the factory sweeps vio-
lated the Fourth and Fifth
Amendments.

Va. Federation
Compiling List

NEW YORK (JTA) — To
update and expand its mail-
ing lists, the Community
Relations Committee of the
Jewish Community Federa-
tion of Richmond, Va. asked
a wide range of Jewish lead-
ers and orgdnizations to
take part in the develop-
ment of a comprehensive
list of non-Jewish opinion-
makers in the city, accord-
ing to the Council of Jewish
Federations.

The list was fed into a
computer and is used for
broad-based mailings and
also pin-pointed for specific
sub-groups among the
opinion-makers.
