REHOVOT — The re-
search of 20 groups of scien-
tists in different depart-
ments throughout the
Weizmann Institute of Sci-
ence will be encouraged by
the forthcoming establish-
ment of the Leo and Julia
Forchheimer Center for
Molecular Genetics.
Endowed by the For-
chheimer Foundation of
New York, the center, like
the institute's seven other
centers, is an intellectual

amalgamation, and will
serve to coordinate, promote
and expand investigations
in this field.

'Federal Ban on Abortions
Conflicts With Halakha'
By BEN GALLOB
(Copyright 1982, JTA, Inc.)
American Jewish women
will be prohibited from ob-
serving Jewish religious
law (Halakha) on abortion,
which permits termination
of pregnancy under some
conditions, if Congress
passes the pending "Human
Life" constitutional
amendment and it becomes
part of the Constitution, or
approves a similar federal
law, according to an
analysis in "Lilith," the in-
dependent publication of
the Jewish feminist move-
ment.
According to the analysis,
such legislation, which
would make abortion a fed-
eral crime would be a viola-
tion of the constitutional
requirement of separation
of church and state.
These points are made
in an article on "The
Jewish Stake in Abortion
Rights," by Annette
Damn, coordinator of the
interreligious affairs de-
partment of the Union of
American Hebrew Con-
gregations, the associa-
tion of Reform
synagogues.
Ms. Daum asserted that
"most of the proposed anti-
choice legislation runs di-
rectly contrary to the letter
and spirit of Jewish Law,"
which. she said does not re-
gard abortion as murder.
She declared that Jewish
law regards the fetus as
"potential life" only and re-
gards its claims as secon-
dary to those of the woman
carrying it. She added that
while there is a divergence
of opinion over circum-
Mack Pitt
and his
Orchestra
stances justifying an abor- °
tion, halakhic experts are in
general agreement "that
concern for the life and
health of the woman takes
precedence over concern for
the potential life of the
fetus."

UNITED NATIONS —
The UN correspondent for
the South African Jewish
Herald, David Horowitz,
says the Israeli delegation
at the UN is far more com-
fortable with the new
Secretary-General, Javier
Peres de Cuellar of Peru,
than it was the Kurt Wal-
dheim of Austria.
In answer to a question,
De Cuellar told Horowitz
that it was possible that he
could be descended from
Marrano Jews. "Hundreds
of thousands of Catholics in
Latin America are known to
be descendants of escapees
from the Spanish Inquisi-
tion," De Cuellar said.
