etroit delegates to the
National Council of Jewish
Women's convention held
here last weekend say the
meeting gave them new ideas for com-
munity activism and advocacy initia-
tives, as well as giving them a new

ernment agencies.

our vision and renewed our enthu-
siasm," said Bloomfield Village res-

the national board, she said "we
will take up the fight against school
vouchers and fight for the protec-
tion of reproductive health. We
will educate our members to know
