Pres. Kennedy Urged
To act On Housing Bias

NEW YORK = The American
Jewish Congress called on Presi-
dent Kennedy today to fulfill
promptly his pledges to deal eff
fcctively with racial and religious
discrimination by use Of his
Presidential powers"
In a resolution, the organiza-
tons National Governing Coun-
Gil urged the President to issue
Executive Orders barring discrim-
nation in Federally-assisted hous-
ing and in employment on Gov
eminent contracts. II said these
orders were already overdue
The rcsolutio was adopted at
a meeting of the American Jewish
Congress national policy-making
body attended by 100 persons.
Nathan l.. Edelstein of Philadel.
phia. chairman of the Governing
Council, presided at the meeting
in Stephen Wise Congress House,
Is East 84th Street.
The American Jewish Congress
statement cited both the 1860
Democratic Party platform on
civil rights and the Presidents
own speeches, including a cam
psisn address in Los Angeles on
September 9 pIedging ITO put
an end to racial and religious dis
elimination in every field Of
Federal activity"
~ An Executive Order estab-
fishing a single agency TO in
vestigate and eliminate discrimi-
nation under Government con-
tracts, in Government employ
.nent and in Observation-Disclosures
vocational training programs.
q An Executive Order barring
discrimination in all housing re-
ceiving Federal aid and appli-
cable mot only to the Federal
government but also to all agen-
cies, governmental or private,
that have power to affect dis
tribution of benefits under any
of the Federal housing programs"
In urging a new and stronger
Executive Order to fight job dis
elimination on Government con-
tracts and in Federal employ
ment and vocational training pro-
gramss the Al Congress resolution
emphasized the necessity of pow
er to take court action restraining
violations of the non-discrimina-
ton clause in government con
tracts"
II noted that government con-
tracts had contained anti-diserim-
nation clauses since l941 but
that because Of lack of effec-
tive enforcement procedures.
"Iarge-seaIe Job discrimination on
government contracts is nofori-
GUS" The new order should end

the present diffusion Of authority,
among dozens OF government
agencies, for enforcing the pro-
hibitions against discrimination, "
the resolution said.
On discrimination in housing,
the resolution called for "effec-
tive machinery TO enforce the
proposed Executive Order through
administrative or court actions. y
The resolution said the order
should cover public, redevelop-
ment and defense housing as well
as housing aided by the Veterans
Administration and the Federal
Housing and Home Finance Agen.
cy. Government housing has
become a synonym in the minds
of many Americans for 'jimcrow'
housing" the resolution declared.
Public housing projects that are
segregated in clear violation OF
the Constitution still receive
Federal subsidies. while the bene-
fits of the vast FILA and VA
housing programs flow almost
exclusively to white families"
The American Jewish Congress
resolution added:
Resort to the executive power
is particularly necessary because
of the showdown on legislative
action on civil rights indicated
by the votes in the Senate to
curb the filibuster and in the
House of Representatives to re-
duce tht power of the Rules Com
mittee.
There is no reason, however,
for delay in the issuance of Exc
cutive Orders. Such orders would
not eradicate the evils of racial
and religious discrimination over
night. But they are essential first
steps toward that vital goal. The
longer we delay in taking those
first steps, the harder our task
will be-"
