THE NATIONAL COUNCIL
OF JEWISH WOMEN
Swiss Women Fight Anti-Semitism
Jewish Minority Rights Made Sub
ject Of Special Investigation.

New York City-From recent re-
port on the activities of Jewish women
abroad the National Council of Jewish
Women has learnt that the League of
Jewish Women of Geneva, Switzerland,
is very actively engaged in correcting
concern the Jew.
In II communication to Estelle NJ.
Sternberger, executive secretary of the
National Council of Jewish Women,
Swiss League of Jewish Women, states
that documents from competent non
Jewish sources have been sent to
number of European institutions and
men influential in the political and
academic world, on the following ques-
tions the numerous clauses, as it af-
fects Jewish students in the universe
tics; the legends that are woven about
the question of Bolshevism and the
Jews share In this movement; and the
Portocols of the Elders of Zion. These
documents We're also placed in the
hands of those who are actively asso-
ciated with the work of the League of
Nations.
A very interesting response to this
documentary service was reflected by
an appreciatiye comment that appeared
in THE Feminist Movement" a pub
lication of the National Alliance of
Swiss Women's Societies. Its comment
included the following statement:
''Since the venomcns plant of Anti
Semitism, always an emblem of re-
action Is ngain blossoming in our coun-
try, we think 1t is not amiss to mention
to our readers the work of the League
of Jewish Women In Geneva, which,
by well documented press service, of
fers exact information to those who
seek truth and tolerance above ALL"
The Swiss Jewish women are coop
Grating with prominent international
wOmens organizations, especially on
matters of Jewish interest 1t is as
sisting the Women's International
League for Peace and Freedom in its
inquiries into the question of Racial
Minorities. 1t has secured the aid of
Jewish minority groups in various
countries, to further these investiga-
tions.
The National Council of Jewish
Women Of the world with an oppor
tunity to enlarge the extent of their
cooperation with one another through
its World Conference of Jewish Women
in Vienna, in 1923, has continued its
effective work in this direction thru
its constant contact with Jewish
women's organizations in every land.
The Councils influence is spreading
to every country that boasts of Jew
ish community. Through its quarterly,
''The Jewish Woman" it offers world
Jewish womauhood a medium for eX-
changing suggestions and information.
