NEW YORK — Thirty-one
Jewish community leaders
from all parts of the United
States will fly to Europe
March 17 for a three-week
study mission under the aus-
pices of the American Jewish
Committee.
The group will first visit
Bucharest and Rome to ob-
serve the Jewish communi-
ties in those cities and spend
the major portion of its
schedule in Israel.
The community leadership
delegation, appointed by AJC
President Philip E. Hoffman,
will study economic, social
and foreign policy questions.
Arrangements have been
made for the group to be re-
ceived by the village priest
in the Village of Ibillin, with
hospitality to follow in the
homes of the Arab villagers.
This village was elected be-
cause it has a mixed compo-
sition of Moslems, Greek
Catholics, Greek Orthodox
and Anglicans.
The Bucharest visit will be
the first for an AJC com-
munity leadership delega-
tion to a country behind the
iron curtain. Chief Rabbi
Moses Rosen, head of the
Bucharest Jewish commun-
ity, will confer with the
group en matters of mutual
interest.
In Rome, the American
Jewish CommAtee group will
meet with Vatican officials.

NEW YORK (JTA)—More
than 450 Jewish women gath-
ered here recently in an his-
torical first for the American
Jewish community.
The women from all over
the United States, Canada
and Israel who met to share
their ideas and experiences
concerning the role of women
in Jewish life, represented
the entire spectrum of the
Jewish community — from
committed Orthodox to So-
cialist-Zionist, according to
Sheryl Baron, conference co-
ordinator,
Michigan area women who
were present at the confer
ence were Shirlee Ides and
ber daughter Lauren, a found-
ing editor of "Nefesh" at the
University of Michigan, Man-
reen and Karen Stahl, Jan Si•
mon, Ellen Singer and Susan'
Goldwater.
The conference was under
the auspices of the North
American Jewish Students'
Network, the service and um-
brella organization for all
Jewish student groups in the '
United States and Canada.
What was extraordinary
about this conference, Ms.
Baron noted, was that it
brought together Jewish
women of various lifestyles
and commitments to focus as
a group on an issue of im-
mediate and central import-
ance to all, including repre-
sentatives of several national
Jewish women's organiza-
tions, hundreds of veterans
of the various Jewish stu-
dents' groups based all over
the country and women of all
ages who have not been af-
filiated. with any Jewish or-
ganizations or student groups.
Many of the women consid-
ered themselves feminists.
The program offered op-
portunities to analyze and
discuss many aspects of the
role of Jewis women—the his-
torical perspective, the quest
for spiritual Judaism, the
problems posed for women in
Halakha; what it is like to
grow up Jewish; what are the
experiences of Jewish women
in politics and Jewish come
munal services and educa-
tion. The delegates grappled
w:th issues that included
feminine theology, marriage
and divorce, alternative life-
styles and the Jewish poor.
Not all the experience was
on the intellectual level, Ms.

The Lich-
tenfels police have no clues
as to the identity of the per-
sons w h o desecrated 600
graves in the old Jewish
cemetery at Burgenstadt in
Franconia.
The damage was f ound
over the weekend. Tracks
have been impossible to find
because of thick snow that
had fallen in the area.
Gravestones weighing up to
half a ton had been turned
over.
A special police commis-
sion set up to investigate the
desecration met with Bavar-
ian Jewish leaders and Ba-
varian Interior Minister
Bruno Merk. Police described
the act as deliberate anti-
Semitism.
The chairman of the Ba-
varian community, Dr. Si-
mon Snopowski, said he
hopes to get reparation for
damage from state sources.
Three years ago, the Mu-
nich Jewish community had
the cemetery restored to re-
move damage caused by the
Nazi regime. The first Jew-
ish graves date back to the
16th Century.
Jewish families from all
over uper Franconia have
family graves in Burgen-
stadt.

BONN (JTA) —

450 Women Hold an Historic Parley
on Their Participation in Jewish Life

Baron said. One of the most
extraordinary events of the
conference was the Sabbath
services led by women read-
ing from the Torah.
This was the first experi-
ence of its kind for most of
the women and led to an un-
derstanding of the necessity
for more active participation
by women in Jewish religious
services, she said.
A commitment by the dele-
gates to "work hard" cul-
minated in community proj-
ects such as a Jewish Wom-
en's Speakers Bureau, a na-
tional Jewish Women's News-

letter and Literary Journal, a
regional folloviup conference
developing
regional study
groups dealing with Jewish
sources and a group dealing
with changing the symbols,
idioms and conceptual terms
of Judaism for more human
and less exclusively male
terms.
