Head of ADJ
Files Action
On NJ. Hotel

, NEWARK, N. J.-Justice Meier
Steinbrink of Brooklyn, national
chairman of B'nai Births Anti
Defamation League, has filed a
formal complaint with the New Jer-
sey Division Against Discrimina-
tion charging that he was denied
accommodations by the Chalfonte-
Haddon Hall in Atlantic City be-
cause of his "Jewish creed"
The incident which prompted the
action by the recently retired New
York Supreme Court judge oc-
Cured on March 5, when he at
temped to make a reservation for
a double room through the Chal-
fonte's New York office. Later
that day the hotels representative
called back to say that no accom-
modations were available for the
desired dates, March % to April 1.
"Suspecting that the refusal of
accommodations was due to my
Jewish name," Steinbrink stated,
81 Immediately arranged for tele-
phone call to be made to the New
York office of the respondent hotel
under the name of John Elliot"
This reservation, which was for
the same accommodations origin
ally requested, was granted by the
hotel and subsequently confirmed
by letter. the judge said.
Another Protest Filed
On the basis of these facts,
Steinbrink concluded in his COM
plaint that the Chalfonte-H Hadden
Hall had denied him accommoda-
tions "on account of my creed,
thereby violating the law of New
Jersey barring such discrimina-
tion."
The Chalfonte Haddon Hall Ho-
tel has also been named in sim
liar complaint by Mrs. Rose Sell
igsberg of New York City.
Mrs. Seligsberg maintained that
she called the hotel for single
reservation for March 6 and was
assured by room clerk that II
could come to the hotel any time
and that they had any number of
rooms available" After giving her
name, however, she subsequently
received a letter from George j.
Turcotte, manager, stating that no
accommodations were available be-
cause the hotel was completely
booked to capacity"
Easter The Man Said
Mrs. Seligsberg related that she
went to Atlantic City on March
8 and pointed out to Turcotte that
his letter was Inconsistent with
the information / had received
over the phone" The manager still
claimed, however, that no accom-
modations were available for March
6 because of Easter" Mrs. Seligs-
berg pointed out in her complaint
that March 6 was more than a
month prior to the Easter holiday.
In letter to the New Jersey Di-
vision Against Discrimination, Os-
car Groner of Newark, New Jer-
sey regional director of the Anti
Defamation League, recalled that
numerous persons of Jewish faith
had complained of discriminatory
practices on the part of the Chal-
fonte- -Haddon Hall Hotel.
Groner further pointed out that
"the hotel frankly admitted its
anti-Semitic policy in a circular
letter to travel agents dated July
%, 1885," which noted that 1--WE
solicit Gentle patronage"
Shocking Report
Commenting on the problem,
Steinbrink noted that "the current
files of the League make shocking
reading with respect to this situa-
tion."

Economic Power
By Robert ]. Lewis

Appointment of q successor
to Housing Administrator Ray
mond M. Foley is expected to
be announced shortly by Presi-
dent-elect Eisenhower.
Mr.. Foley, former commissioner
of the Federal Housing Admin
iStration after earlier service in
that agency as a regional and
State director in Michigan, told
President Truman at the time
of the Presidents decision not
to run for reelection that he
would prefer to resign from the
top housing post at the end
of his present term, though he
has not announced his future
plans, associates said today.
The job as HHFA head is a
powerful one in terms Of au-
thority and scope in the
domestic economy, since HHFA
is the overall Federal agency in
the housing field. The salary
is $17,500 a year.
Two present heads of HHFA's
constituent agencies-the Fed
eral Housing Administration
and the Public Housing Admin
istration-likewise are expected
to be replaced.
In the case Of the Home Loan
Bank Board - another con-
stituent agency with q BIZ

members are appointed for six
year terms-one dictatorship
now held by Kenneth Heisler
will become vacant June 80.
which will enable the G. o. P.
to gain direction Of that agency
at that time.
Heading FHA now is Walter
L. Greene, a former assistant
commissioner.
PHA commissioner is John
Taylor Egan, a former architect
who has held public housing
posts for many years.
. Speculation has been consid-
cradle in recent weeks over who
will be chosen to fill Mr.. Foley's
post. While the job is not equal
to sub-cabinet appointments as
far as governmental rank Is
concerned, it is a vastly power
full and complex one owing to
the importance of the home
building industry as a compon-
ent of prosperity, and owning
to the continued housing short
age and the political and social
, implications of that situation.
Specific views of the new
administration with respect to
housing we're not made known
during the presidential cam
paign, though many supporters
of the COP. and President
elect Eisenhower have favored a
contraction of Federal activity,
and complete withdrawal from
public housing.
At the time the Housing and

Senate Republicans
Plan New Drive for
Single Money Bill

Senate Republicans, in party
conference. today launched a new
drive to return to the one-pack-
age appropriation bill.
They also Endorsed In principal
the bill of Senator Mcclellan
Democrat, of Arkansas. to set ur
Ia joint Congressional budget COM
mittee to look for waste and use-
less Government functions.
Senator Millikin. of Colorado
chairman of the conference, said
it would be impractical to try tc
get a single-package money bill
this year. because the House is
already halfway through acting
on a dozen separate departmental
bills.
The Senate Republicans will
however. try to pass this year a
basic law directing use Of the one
package system hereafter.
Senator Millikin pointed out
that the Republican Both Con-
gress balanced the budget and re-
duced taxes, and he believes it can
be done again with proper budget
reforms.
Chairman Cannon of the House
Appropriations Committee, a Mis-
souri, Democrat, took the lead In
an experiment with a one-pack-
age bill in 1850, and was con-
WINGED it resulted in substantial
economies. Last year, however,
Speaker Rayburn and other Dem
ocratic leaders joined with House
Republican leaders in killing the
one-package plan in the House
Appropriations Committee. II.
Senator Ferguson, Republican,
of Michigan, will take the lead in
reviving the issue on the Senate
floor. It could be done by calling
up a resolution already sponsored
by Senator Byrd, Democrat, of
Virginia, and Al other Senator's.
