Affirmative
Action Hit

NEW YORK — Three
American Jewish human
relations organizations
have appealed for a national
policy that would reaffirm
the U.S. commitment to
"genuine equal opportunity
for all" and to "legitimate
affirmative action in every
field" without "the many
abuses and excesses" that
have developed from distor-
tions of the affirmative ac-
tion principle.
.In a joint letter to Paul
Alexander, acting general
counsel of the U.S. Commis-
sion on Civil Rights, the
American Jewish Commit-
tee, the American Jewish
Congress, an the Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai
Brith expressed "misgiv-
ings and reservations"
about the proposed state-
ment of the commission,
"Affirmative Action in the
1980s: Dismantling the
Process of Discrimination."
