Euthanasia


Resolution Adopted by the CCAR

EUTHANASIA

Digests of resolutions adopted by the

Central Conference of American Rabbis

between 1889 and 1974

1. Noting that a committee of 2,000 physicians in the state of New York has

drafted

a bill seeking to legalize the practice of orderly scientific euthanasia, we

recommend

that a special committee of the Conference bring in a report at the next

meeting

(annual). (1948, p. 129)
