Canada will be without Jews within
from those who considered it
"wicked" and wanted mixed cou-
ples to be ostracized by the Jewish
community to those who believe
that intermarriage is a desirable
contribution to solving the "Jewish
problem."
She said that in previous genera-
tions, American Jews tended to as-
sociate less with non-Jews as they
reached adulthood; now there is an
open society and young adults as a
rule go about in a mixed social
milieu. She said in some intermar-
riages there is conversion of one
partner to Judaism and that Jews
now tend to place more stress on
tradition. But that is not sufficient
to offset what she calls the "nega-
tive balance."
Prof. Davis said that he identi-
fied a bireligious couple in which
each partner retained his own faith
as a "mixed marriage" whereas
when one partner converted it was
"intermarriage.". He said Jewish
education was insufficient to stem
the tide because many adults re-
garded it as something for children
which would be discarded with
their childhood.

VANCOUVER (JTA) — The Na-
Council
of Jewish Women of
tional
Canada in a sharply worded resolu-
tion, has expressed disapproval of
a new Canadian law removing
abortion from the criminal code if
performed for therapeutic pur-
poses. The bill is considered a re-
form move.
The NCJW. in convention here,
stated that abortion should not be
a matter of legislation or govern-
ment concern since it is a matter
of concern only between a woman
and her physician. In another reso-
lution, the council approved of the
new official languages bill allowing
for the official use of the French
language in Canadian government
services.
