George Ross and the damage that pervasive anti-semitism did to Philadelphia 55 years later.

My father, Walter Arader, only cared about intelligence and integrity his entire life in Philadelphia. The key to his friendship was his memebership in Young President Organization for all of his busniess life. About 60 years ago he became close friends with George Ross, an employee at in the Philadelphia office of Goldman Sachs. George approached me many times about becoming involved with institutions, libraries and societies that he could support to become an intregal part of the business life of the Delware Valley. My suggestions were the obvious ones and George approached them. He and his wife, Lynn, were universally rejected for being Jewish and even worse for being Russian Jewish.
