AJCongress Asks
Senate Rejection
of Two Measures
NEW YORK — The
American Jewish Congress
has urged the U.S. Senate to
reject a measure passed by
the House of Representa-
tives that would bar the
U.S. Justice Department
from seeking court-ordered
busing in school integration
cases.
The AJCongress has also
asked the Senate to reject a
sweeping anti-abortion bill,
arguing that "the proper
role of government in a free
society is to allow the differ-
ent religious traditions to
culcate their own beliefs
IIIP about the appropriateness
of abortion and to leave the
final decision to the woman,
answering to God and con-
science."
Kreisky Offers
M.E. Opinions
LONDON — Austrian
Chancellor Bruno Kreisky
believes that the situation
in the Middle East would be
entirely different today if
Hitler and his regime had
failed to be established in
central Europe."
Kreisky's comments ap-
peared in "Arab Business
Report," published in Hol-
land and due to be launched
in Britain in August.
Kreisky feels that the
adamant opposition to a
Palestinian state on the
West Bank comes from
European Jews who emi-
grated to Israel following
the Holocaust. "It is a fact
that they (the Jews) have
formed a state and want to
keep it."
Feminist Parley

.
JERUSALEM (JNI) — A
group of 700 women, has
urged a law against using
women or men as sex objects
in advertising.
The Fourth National
Feminists Conference,
which ended at the
Jerusalem YMCA early
in June, also called for
criminal sanctions against
acts exploiting, degrading
or discriminating against
women or their bodies.
Other resolutions supported
abortion on demand, 24-
hour day-care centers, civil
divorce and marriage, non-
sexist school programs and
the enactment of a basic law
on women's rights.
