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.
