Cohn at its annual State of Israel Bond dinner. In public life, he has been a tenacious champion of Israel's right to exist in peace and security and of American economic political support for the beleaguered Jewish nation. And in private life, he has demonstrated an equally deep-rooted commitment of purpose on behalf of his fellow man that magnificently reflects the humanitarian ideals which have sustained B'nai B'rith over the past 140 years. Mr. Cohn is one of the country's best-known attorneys. He is the senior member of the law firm of Saxe, Bacon and Bolan. Moreover, the same abounding energies are readily evident in his participation in a broad spectrum of communal, educational and philanthropic endeavors. He has served as adjunct professor at New York Law School, a regent for more than two decades of St. Francis College, special projects director of the Humane Society of New York, president of the American Jewish League Against Communism, a director of the Hebrew Home for the Aged in Riverdale and chairman of P.A.C.E., an organization which supplies prisoners with art and music materials to help foster their rehabilitation. In addition, he has been honored for his efforts on their behalf by the Jewish National Fund and Federation of Jewish Philanthropies, is active in a project to build a nonsectarian athletic field in Jerusalem and is a longtime member of Banking and Finance Lodge of B'nai B'rith-continuing a tradition established by his father, Justice Albert Cohn, who was president of the organization's New York-New England district. Mr. Cohn has had the opportunity to visit Israel many times and has seen first-hand how the infusion of Israel Bond investment capital has strengthened the industry, agriculture, commerce, energy resources and other important economic facets of our struggling sister democracy in the Middle East. B'nai B'rith Banking and Finance Lodge is delighted to extend this heartfelt salute to so esteemed a member as Roy M. Cohn. And it calls upon his many friends and colleagues to join in honoring him in a manner he is certain to find most meaningful: by reaffirming their own commitment, through Israel Bonds, to fortify Israel's economic defenses. Banking and Finance Lodge is pleased to take this occasion to grant special recognition to 11 previous guests of honor who have been vital forces in the Israel Bond program. These outstanding men are deserving of our deepest appreciation for giving of their time and talents to help upbuild Israel's economy. NORMAN BERLANT LEONARD R. LANDIS w. STEWART CAHN HERBERT H.

  • 2015 Rapallo Award Luncheon
    Columbian Lawyers Association First Judicial Department Fiftieth Annual Rapallo Award Luncheon HONORABLE JOHN A. BARONE Justice of the Supreme Court State of New York Twelfth Judicial District April 18, 2015 The Waldorf Astoria CHARLES A. RAPALLO Charles A. Rapallo, whose father, Antonio Rapallo, was an attorney, educator, and linguist, was the first jurist of Italian American descent elected to the Court of Appeals of the State of New York. He was among the first seven judges to serve on the Court when the new state Constitution was adopted in 1869 after the Constitutional Conventions of 1867 and 1868. Sworn in July 4th, 1870 at 46 years of age, he served as an Associate Judge until his death on December 28, 1887. The first volumes of New York Reports, published during Judge Rapallo’s tenure on the Court of Appeals, contain many of Judge Rapallo’s opinions embracing a wide range of subjects and displaying the resources of a powerful mind informed by reading and reflection. In the combination of qualities which qualify an individual for the Court of Appeals, Judge Rapallo had few, if any, superiors. He possessed intellectual gifts of a high order, integrity of purpose, a calm and dispassionate temper, great good sense, a solid judgement, and these, united with learning and a power of philosophical analysis, constitute him one of the outstanding judges to have served on the Court of Appeals. Judge Rapallo was one of the dedicated lawyers and jurists responsible for the formation of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York; he was elected a member of its first executive committee.

  • Surrogate Champions for the Poor
    6 Surrogate Champions for the Poor The poor, like all constituent groups, need strong advocates in Congress. They need legislators who will devote their time to issues related to poverty, and who will advance legislation to address poverty-relevant issues. Without these legislative champions, it is unlikely that the interests of the poor will be raised on Capitol Hill. Without this initial recognition, it is unlikely that the House will pursue policies intended to help the poor. As Williams writes, “before government can act in a manner that is responsive to the interest of individual citizens, those interest must be articulated by a representative in a decision-making body such as a legislature” (1998, 24). Therefore, this chapter identifies and discusses these “champions for the poor.” The previous three chapters reveal that some poverty-related legisla- tion is introduced in the House, and that certain legislators are more likely to offer such legislation. However, these chapters also make clear that the representation of the poor in Congress is not straightforward. To the extent that it occurs, it does not follow the classical paths of collective or dyadic representation. Put differently, the champions of the poor are not the usual suspects. In this chapter, I examine an alternate pathway of representation – surrogate representation – wherein a legislator represents constituents beyond his own district. I establish the role surrogate representatives play in giving the poor a political voice, and show that surrogate representation is central to how the poor are represented in Congress. This focus on surrogate champions shifts attention to the activity of legislators throughout their careers in the House, rather than at one moment in time.

  • Nazi-Confiscated Art Issues
    Nazi-Confiscated Art Issues Dr. Jonathan Petropoulos PROFESSOR, DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, LOYOLA COLLEGE, MD UNITED STATES Art Looting during the Third Reich: An Overview with Recommendations for Further Research Plenary Session on Nazi-Confiscated Art Issues It is an honor to be here to speak to you today. In many respects it is the highpoint of the over fifteen years I have spent working on this issue of artworks looted by the Nazis. This is a vast topic, too much for any one book, or even any one person to cover. Put simply, the Nazis plundered so many objects over such a large geographical area that it requires a collaborative effort to reconstruct this history. The project of determining what was plundered and what subsequently happened to these objects must be a team effort. And in fact, this is the way the work has proceeded. Many scholars have added pieces to the puzzle, and we are just now starting to assemble a complete picture. In my work I have focused on the Nazi plundering agencies1; Lynn Nicholas and Michael Kurtz have worked on the restitution process2; Hector Feliciano concentrated on specific collections in Western Europe which were 1 Jonathan Petropoulos, Art as Politics in the Third Reich (Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press).
