NEW YORK (JTA)-A stronger
federal role in fighting segregation
and discrimination was proposed
hereby the American Jewish Con-
gress. The organization called on
President Eisenhower to resist
what it termed "defeatist" atti-
tude toward civil rights legislation
and urged him to support a pro-
gram "to help make the promise
Of equality come true for every
American"
The action, taken at the close of
two-day meeting of the AJC ma
tional executive and administrative
committees, called for enactment
of legislation that would, among
other things, make it federal
crime to transport explosives
across state lines for the purpose
of criminally destroying homes as
well as institutions.
It also urged extension of the
Federal Civil Rights Commission
two years beyond its original term
and the blocking of federal mort
gage guarantees or other assist
ances to any builder or developer
who restricts occupancy or owner
ship on grounds of race, religion,
or national origin.

on all mankind. Jewish teachers,
ancient and modern, have looked
upon them as the fountainhead
from which all Jewish truth and
Jewish teaching could be derived.
THESE COMMANDMENTS are
written on the walls of synagogue
and church; and, thus, they be-
came the worlds laws for all time.
They have been engraved on two
tablets; on one, mans duties tow
ards God, and on the second,
mans duties to his fellow-man,
signifying their independence.
The teachers of the Talmud en-
phasized their everlasting and uni
versal influence by stating that the
tablets on which the Ten Com
mandments were written were pre-
pared on the eve of creation, thus
ante-dating humanity and, there
fore, independent of time or place
or racial culture. They also taught
that the Revelation at Sinai took
place in desert territory, signifying
that they belong to no one nation
exclusively; and they were heard
not by Israel, alone, but by the
inhabitants of all the earth.
THE DIVINE WORD divided it
self into the 20 tongues spoken
on earth so that all the children
of men might understand its
world embracing and man-re :
deeming message. We must,
however, emphasize that the
Ten Commandments do not con-
tain the whole duty of man. They
laid down the foundations of rei-
gion and morality but are not the
entire structure Of human duty.
They are to be regarded as the
fundamentals of the faith, as the
pillars of the Torah and its roots,
around which humanity has built
its laws of conduct and duty. Two
generations ago, Renan wrote:
''The Incompatible fortune which
awaited this page Of Exodus,
namely, to become the code of uni
versal ethics, was not mmerited.
The Ten Words are for all peo-
pies: and they will be, during all
centuries, the Commandments OF
God"
FAMOUS ARE the words of
President Wilson, when, at the
conclusion of World War I, he pro-
posed at Versatile IA points for
world peace. Clemenceau, the then
French premier, known for his wit,
said sarcastically:
'Mr. President, on Sinai God
gave humanity only Ten Com
mandments; why shall we give the
world IA points," upon which the
President retorted: eff the world
is ready to accept the Ten Com
mandments, I shall gladly with
draw my IA points!"
