Henry Miller's Fiction:
Jewish Secular Educational Organizations
From U.S. to Hold'1st Conference in Detroit
Ten organizations from through-
out the U.S. will be represented
at the first Conference of Jewish
Secular Educational Organizations
today through Sunday at the Jew-
ish Center.
The Center's Jewish Parents In-
stitute is the conference host. Co-
operating local organizations in-
clude Sholem Aleichem Institute
and the Ann Arbor Jewish Cul-
tural School.
Two days of workshops and dis-
cussion groups will cover edu-
cational materials and techniques,
adult program and the role of sec-
ular groups in the Jewish commu-
nity.
Each of the 10 participating
groups has independently evolved
an approach to Jewish' education
and family belonging which
stresses Jewish culture and iden-
tity rather than religious observ-
ance.
Allegorical patterns in the writ-
ings of Henry Miller are researched
and outlined in a study made by
Jane A. Nelson of the English de-
partment of Bradford (Mass.) Jun-
ior College.
In her "Form and Image in the
Fiction of Henry Miller," published
by Wayne State University Press,
Miss Nelson defines the archetypal
world delineated in Miller's fiction
and the sex aspects and the ob-
scenity inherent in the stories.
The conference will be their

Marlow, Oak Park, a son, Michael
According to data made public now by the Council of Jewish Federa-
JoeL
tions and Welfare Funds, its women's division raised nearly $16,000,000
in 1969. This is more than 10 per cent of the total raised by federation
sponsored campaigns. What is more—this sum is a 22 per cent gain
over the previous year.

the women's division of the UJA raised more than $5,000,000 and the
Federation of Jewish Philanthropies has probably raised a similar sum.

In some cities—like Detroit, Chicago and Los Angeles—the women's
divisions raised over $1,000,000; Cleveland and Philadelphia raised over
$750,000; Essex County, San Francisco and Montreal raised over

Most interesting is the fact that more than 40 per cent of the total
dollars contributed by the women in last year's campaign of the Federa-

increased over 13 per cent since last year.

A STRONG FORCE: It is worthwhile stressing that in addition to
the substantial contributions which Jewish women make to their local
federations and to the United Jewish Appeal, they also contribute to
other Jewish causes and to general humanitarian causes. Their contri-
butions to these causes also total millions of dollars.

Hadassah, for instance, raises more than $10,000,000 a year. Wom-
en's American ORT, with its tens of thousands of members, raises
about $2,000,000 annually. The women's division of the American Jewish

Congress has quite an income. The National Council of Jewish Women
raises substantial sums for its activities. The Pioneer Women, a labor
Zionist group, raises every year more than $1,500,000 for projects in
Israel. Then there are women's divisions of agencies like the United
Hias Service.

JEWISH COMMITMENTS: In the course of their activities, leaders
of the women's divisions in the federations have established a very
interesting fact. The middle-aged woman approaches her Jewish com -
mitments emotionally while the 30-year old woman approaches her
commitment intellectually, questioning it constantly.
In most instances the Jewish education of the younger woman is
limited. She seeks clarification. She wants the answers not only for her
own satisfaction but also in order to bring Jewish life closer to the
family.
The leaders of the women's divisions in the federations attempt to
help the young matrons in clarifying Jewish values. They devise pro-
grams wisely enough to interest the young. They recognize the impor-
tance of making their younger members more knowledgeable and more
educated in matters Jewish. They arrange for their orientation talks
and evening institutes which stimulate thought and discussion.
Through active participation in the fund-raising, the Jewish woman
gradually becomes the "learned Jew" in the family. She often knows
more about Jewish contemporary problems than her husband who is
usually too busy with his business affairs. The women's divisions are
thus playing an important role not only in helping to raise funds for
Jewish causes, but also in bringing stronger Jewish feelings into the
Jewish home.
