Geneva July 9. claimed that the
system of Jewish education in
South Africa was "on the verge

Mrs. Arbeh-Almozlino, head of

said that the committee is looking
into tax relief for the working
mother. "We are putting our main
emphasis
on day care centers
That is much more important for •
women in lower economic groups .
In general, the care of young chil-
dren is the basic problem of the
working mother. -
Mrs Harman headed the incep-
tion of the Demographic Center a
few years ago. The center has
learned that the mother will go
out to work if the appropriate con
damns exist. It, too, has been con-
cerned with establishing dayCarC
centers.
"All in all. - Mrs. Harman said.
"the emphasis of the Demographic
Center is on social planning for
the family, the strengthening of
the family so that every child has
the opportunity to develop maxi-
mally "
In the face of more radical
feminists and their supporters who
have attacked the family struc-
ture, Mrs. Harman, like her four
colleagues, is convinced that the
family unit is the basic unit of
society.
The women agree that women'
should be allowed to develop out-
side the home — and that their
interests have to be fought for.
