YALE PREXY SCORED FOR
OPPOSING ANTI-BIAS
LEGISLATION

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Ops
Vincent ]. McGovern, president OF
the New Haven Central Labor
Council, made public letter last
week assailing President Charles
Seymour of Yale University for
his opposition to proposed state
legislation prohibiting racial and
religious discrimination by colleges
in the admission of students.
The letter was concerned with
remarks attributed to DR.. Sey-
mour on the occasion of the recent
annual observance of alumni day
at Yale. "You argue that anti
discrimination legislation would
constitute interference in college
affairs" Mr.. McGovern wrote.
Given if this were true, it would
not follow that Americans of diff
ferent racial, religious or national
origins should be denied~equal ed
ucational opportunity in order to
spare colleges such petty annoy
ances. But it is not true" He
termed it significant that the Yale
president did not deny that dis
elimination was being widely prac-
ticed in institutions of higher
learning.
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1948-03-19

The title of the play is taken
from the Biblical quotation: "They
that builded the wall, every one
with one of his hands wrought in
the work, and with the other held
his weapon; and the builders, every
one had his sword girded by his
side" The play is symbolical of
the Jewish resistance in Palestine
today against the invading brig
ands and gangsters financed by
the Mufti and other Arab gang
ster leaders.
Briefly, the play deals with the
heroic defense of Jewish settlers
in an isolated spot in northern
Palestine, how that settlement is
virtually wiped out almost to the
last man, but in their defense of
that settlement another settlement
is able to survive.
The play is being directed and
staged by Hannah Goodman. In
active cooperation with Miss Good
man are Carl Alpert, director of
the Department of Education of
the ZOA, and Manuel Posy, nat
ional director of the American
Zionist Fund.
The play opens with the report
ed rumOrs of an impending Arab
attack. The settlers, disarmed by
the British, are determined, with
the few weapons they have, to de-
fend their newly created life of
