New 'Who's Who'
TORONTO — The biog-
raphies of 300 prominent
Canadian Jewish women
have been published by
Edmond Lipsitz in the 1983
edition of "Who's Who of
Canadian Jewish Women."
Scholar Analyzes the Roots of Anti-Semitism
in JPS-Published The Devil and the Jews'
searching for its root causes.
That its origins lie in the
emotional realm rather
than in the rational is the
theme of Joshua Trachten-
berg's The Devil and the
Jews," in a new paperback
edition from the Jewish
Publication Society.

Groups Fighting
Clearwater Law
NEW YORK — The
American Jewish Commit-
tee has joined Americans
United for Separation of
Church and State, the Na-
tional Council of Churches
of Christ, and the American
Baptist Church in the
U.S.A., in challenging the
constitutionality of a
charitable solicitation ordi-
nance recently enacted by
the city of Clearwater, Fla.
The ordinance, which is
intended to prevent fraud in
the solicitation of funds and
which is aimed at the
Church of Scientology, is so
broadly framed, according
to Samuel Rabinove, the
AJCommittee legal direc-
tor, "that it would be bur-
densome to all organiza-
tions engaged in legitimate
fund raising."
"complete panoply of the
devil's own."
Dr.
Trachtenberg
analyzes these attitudes
toward Jews by the hostile
Christian world and clearly
shows that they are "based
on the crassest superstition
and credulity that have
permeated to the lower
depths of Western culture."
He indicates that while the
upper hierarchy of the
Catholic Church urged
tolerance, the lower clergy
engaged in constant agita-
tion and persecution.
In surveying the many
charges of witchcraft and
sorcery, the author provides
fascinating legends and
