Anti-Semitism Laid
To 50 Big Utilities

NEW YORK, Dec. % (AP)
Fifty Of the Nations giant
utility firms were accused
today Of discriminating against
Jews and other minority
groups in selecting executive
personnel.
The accusation was made by
"A. M. Sonnabend, president of
-the American Jewish Commit
!tee and a Boston industrialist.
He said very few Of the
utilities practice discrimination
.as q specific policy. But nev-
.ertheless, he said, they main
-tain a personnel-practices
climate that discourages Jew
.iSh candidates and members Of
.other religious and ethnic
minority groups"
The Jewish committee has
been sponsoring and cooper
ating with three major studies
underway for the past two
a.. years at Harvard, the Univer-
sity Of Michigan and the Uni
+. versity Of California at Los
Angeles.
. The studies are designed to
. probe barriers on the executive
level both at recruitment points
d. and within the industries.
Mr.. Sonnabend minced no
. words in q statement, issued
! through the American Jewish
Committee headquarters here
In the form Of a press release.
. Sees BuiIt-In Screen
There seems to be a built-in
discriminatory screen which
has q much finer mesh for
Jews than for other candi-
q dates" he said.
Jewish perSonneI Craol-
tionally must do better than
, others either to stay in the
same place, or to move up on
, the higher managerial ladder" !"
Mr.. Sonnabend named the so
concerns he accused Of discrim-
. inatory practices. They includ-
ed q. American Telephone &
Telegraph Co., Of New York;
Consolidated Edison Of New
York and Western Union
Telegraph.
These three quickly asserted
through spokeSmen that they
knew Of no discrimination Of
the type charged by Mr.. Son.

The immutable fact that
President johnson viii cast the
enc. deciding vote. for his
r1nning-mate at the Democrat
L convention In August has
done nothing to stop the furi-
Gus speculation In Democratic
circles as to who the second
nan on the ticket could and
should be.
The choice Is considered
crucial because President
johnson comes from q part Of
the country that has never
before sent a man to the White
House.
. It Is considered essential that
he find someone who balances
his rather flamboyant Texas
qualities. which are regarded as
exotic in the Northeastern and
other large States.
While President johnson has
been unequivocally and in
.ereasingly committed on the
issue Of civil rights, he Is still a
dubious quantity among those
liberal and intellectual branch
es Of the party-many Of them
In the large states-who fought
bis nomination for the vice
presidency In 1860.
But although he may not
know until after the Republi-
can convention in July exactly
what he will need most in the
way Of a running-mate, Wash
tngton Is awaSh in possibilities
and promoters.
The talk centers around five
men: The late Presidents
brother. Attorney General
Robert F. Kennedy; his broth
er-in-law. Peace Corps Direc-
tor. r. Sargent Shriver; q. N.
Ambassador Adlai E. Steven
son. twice the Democratic
nominee for the presidency;
Senate whip Hubert Humphrey
Of Minnesota, and Eugene ],
Mccarthy. the junior Senator
from the same State.
T, The presence Of the Attorney
General on the ticket-and It
is argued that he could not
refuse to do for Mr.. johnson
what Mr.. johnson did for his
'brother-would lock UP the
Kennedy vote, and insure the
presence Of the Superlative
Kennedy organization in the
campaign. The Attorney Gen.

Is q Catholic, and this Is con-
sidered an asset. The fact
would have been one Of sardon-
ic amusement to the late PreSi-
dent. who up until the moment
Of his election was told that his
religion was an inSuperable
obstacle to the White House.
Now, all Is changed.
Senator Mccarthy is popular
both among Catholics and
liberals, who salute his inde-
pendence. With President
Kennedy. although on different
grounds, he opposed Federal
aid for parochial schools. He
never pressed for United States
representation at the Vatican.
He remarked dryly he did
not regard the Holy See as q
center Of political power and
would rather send an ambaSSa-
dor to the Pentagon or the
First National Bank Of New
York.
A prominent church layman,
he has been identified with the
progressive elements in the
church represented by the late
Pope John XXIu.
Liberals remember gratefully
his radio debate with the other
Senator Mccarthy at the
height Of the Red hunting
furor, when practically no one
In the Congress would take on
the Wisconsin Republican.
His friends point out that his
wit, reflectiveness and detach-
ment would provide an effec-
tive contrast to the johnson
manner.
He and Mr.. johnson enjoy q
cordial relationship. The Presi-
dent was Senator McCarthy's
second choice in 1860. The
Senator was a Stevenson man
who breasted the Kennedy tide
with a rousing speech nominat-
ing Mr.. Stevenson that was the
oratorical high-water mark oi
the Democratic convention
do not reject this man who
made us proud to be Demo-
Gratis" he thundered and the
convention hall went wild.
Since then, he has spoken in
almost every State. During his
first term in the Senate, which
expires next year, he has voted
consistently with the New
Frontier, although he was
regarded as q trifle too objec-
tive to be rated strictly as q
Kennedy man.
One local observer pointed
out that Senator Mccarthy l.
an Irish Catholic without the
built-in advantages Of the
breed. namely q big-city base
! His home is In st. Paul, not q
political powerhouse.
But his partisans insist thai
If the matter were put UP tc
the members Of the House anc
Senate who must run next
year, he would be the frs
choice.
And If Lyndon johnson turn
to his old stamping-ground, tn,
Congress. for q running-mate
Senator Mccarthy might vel
be the man.

Hearings Next Month

Asserting that the proposed
legislation Is bottled up in the
House Rules Committee pend
ing hearings next month, Mr..
wilkins said:
"The failure Of Congress to
act IN face Of the civil rights
crisis contributed to a measure
of disenchantment anon g
Negroes with the legislative
process and with the Congress
sional seniority system.
Under this system, members
Of Congress became chairmen

The State Department has
conducted q series of tests on

General Assembly.
None of them worked more
to the advantage of the United
States than the current one
nation-one-vote in effect for
the l10-member international
organization.
The Is different plans of
weighted voting" were based
on population, land area. gross
national product, percentage of

land, Assistant Secretary of

cations.
I'VE found that the United
States would have done worse
under any other system than
the present arrangement Of
one country one vote. The So
Wet bloc, by any weighted vot-
ing system, would have come
up with more than the 10 per
cent of the vote they now COM
mand in the U. NJ"
He said that every weighted
system reduces the influence
of a lot of small countries who
happen to vote the way we do
most Of the time. Our con-
clusion was that weighted vot-
ing in the u. N. would be bad
