The first large-scale national study of American Jewry in 10 years is scheduled to begin Aug. 20 after months of delays. Some 5,000 Jews are expected to be interviewed in the coming months in the National Jewish Population Survey. The poll, originally scheduled to begin in January, was delayed so that leaders in its sponsoring agency, the United Jewish Communities, could offer input and so that questions could be tested.
