BASEL (JTA)—The Euro-
pean Economic Community
(EEC) is considering a law
for "the protection of ani-
mals" which could lead to
the prohibition of the shehita
in several member nations,
it was revealed here last
weekend at the annual meet-
ing of the Federation of Jew-
ish Communities of Switzer-
land (SIG).
Under the law, each EEC
member could decide whether
to allow or prohibit the she-
hita on its soil. In Switzer-
land, the shehita has been
forbidden since 1893.
The delegates decided to
intensify Jewish education
programs in Switzerland.
Jean Nordmann of Fri-
bourg was elected new SIG
president. He succeeds
Georges Brunschvig of Bern
who died in October 1973.
