Washington (JTA) — In a'
powerful show of concern for
women's health issues, the
Women's League for Con-
servative Judaism sub-
mitted a petition to Presi-
dent Clinton this week call-
ing for an increase in breast
cancer research.
The petition was delivered
during a White House visit
that came as part of the
League's biennial World Af-
fairs Conference, held in
Washington from October
15-19.
"We need a nationally
focused comprehensive
strategy to combat breast
cancer," the petition reads.
"Only a consistent, high
level of funding for breast
cancer will help make the
necessary difference in this
disease," it says.
Nearly 2.6 million women
in the United States have
breast cancer, a disease that
killed more than 450,000
women in the 1980s, accor-

The league urged Mr.
Clinton to "bring together

selected leaders from the ex-
ecutive branch, the Con-
gress, the scientific com-
munity, private industry
and women with breast
cancer" to "design and
implement a comprehensive
plan to end the breast cancer
epidemic."
The petition was signed by
225 delegates of the con-
ference, which brought wo-
men from more than 20
states and Canada together
for meetings at the White
House and with members of
Congress on topics ranging
from health care to the Mid-
dle East peace process, ac-
cording to Rhonda Kahn, the
league's public relations di-
rector.
The focal point of the
meetings was women's
health care issues, Ms. Kahn
said.
At the White House, dele-
gates were addressed by
several low- level ad-
ministration officials, in-
cluding a member of Clin-
ton's Health Care Task
Force, Ms. Kahn said.
