According to Rabbi Ale- xander M. Schindler, president of the Union of American Hebrew Congre- gations (UAHC), "One can oppose intermarriage and seek to mitigate its spread' without pillorying the in- termarried. Jewish life has no need of witch-hunts." Rabbi Schindler made the remark at the dedication of the Kivie Kaplan Center, named for the late Reform Jewish leader who also served as board chairman of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The build- ing will serve as a confer- ence center for the UAHC's Eisner Camp Institute.
