Women Fighting Anti-Israel
Proposals at UN Meeting
NEW YORK — In an "Ac-
tion Alert" concerning this
summer's Mid-Decade
World Conference of the UN
Decade for Women, Eleanor
Marvin, president of the In-
ternational Council of
Jewish Women (ICJW),
warned its 32 world-wide af-
filiates that "an item on the
economic and social prob-
lems of the Palestinian
women had been added to
the agenda."
The National Council of
Jewish Women (NCJW),
NCJW in Canada and
Women's International
Zionist Organization in
Norway are joining to fight
the use of the upcoming con-
ference as a forum against
Israel.
"We've sent out an alert
to our sections regarding
participation in regional
preparatory confer-
ences, and our UN repre-
sentatives ha ,, e been
alerted," said Shirley I.
Leviton, national
president of NCJW. "We
are working closely with
the Leadership Confer-
ence of Jewish Women's
Organizations to prevent
the politicization of the
Mid-Decade World Con-
ference of the UN Decade
for Women, to be held in
Copenhagen this July."
ICJW is asking "that the
item on Palestinian women
be enlarged to cover the
situation in respect to 'All
Refugee Women.' "
NCJW representatives
have met with White House
and State Department offi-
cials urging that the U.S.
delegation to Copenhagen
be instructed to oppose "ex-
traneous matters" at the
conference. Such a resolu-
tion was adopted last sum-
mer in Madison, Wis., at a
meeting of the Continuing
Committee of the 1977
Houston (Texas) National
Women's Conference, at the
request of the Jewish
Women's Caucus.
"Remembering the
politicization of the Inter-
national Women's Year
Conference in Mexico City
in 1975, where 'Zionism
equals racism' first reared
its ugly head, we must be
extremely diligent to do all
in our power to prevent a
similar turn of events in
Copenhagen. Such a de-
velopment could be most
damaging to the interests of
Israel in the world commu-
nity," said Esther R. Landa.
Mrs. Landa is immediate
past president of NCJW and
is a member of President
Carter's Advisory Commit-
tee for Women. Mrs. Landa
was also instrumental in
forming the Jewish
Women's Caucus at the
Houston conference on
women.
At Houston (in 1977),
the delegates succeeded
in avoiding the politiciza-
tion that had plagued the
Mexico City conference
and similar UN confer-
ences since 1975.
"The Copenhagen confer-
ence must reflect the needs
of women around the world,
just as the Houston confer-
ence mirrored the needs of
women in the United
States," explained Mrs.
Leviton.
Major themes of the
Copenhagen conference in-
clude education, employ-
ment, and health.
Katzir in Mexico
MEXICO CITY (JTA) —
Former President Ephraim
Katzir of Israel was re-
ceived here by President
Jose Lopez Portillo.
He said at a press confer-
ence later that relations be-
tween Mexico and Israel are
excellent and expressed
hope that Israel's peace
treaty with Egypt will lead
to peace with its other Arab
neighbors.
Katzir was honored by
the Mexican Friends of Tel
Aviv University. It is his
second visit to Mexico, his
first having been a state
visit in November 1977, as
president of Israel.
