Foreign Minister Golda Meir today demanded a Cabinet ruling over the issue of non-recognition by Israeli rabbinical courts of divorces granted by American Conservative rabbis. The Cabinet empowered Dr. Zerach Warhaftig, Minister for Religious Affairs, to work out an acceptable arrangement on the issue. It is understood that only two cases have occurred in which the Rabbinical courts have failed to recognize such divorces and one of the cases is still pending.
