Author(s) Catherine Pearce AbstractThis article looks at the 1947 Victorian Health Commission's warning to the Melbourne Beth Din that unless it adapted to new regulations re. animal slaughter, the kosher method of butchery would be banned. It explores the ensuing contest between abbatoir reformers seeking to institute humane slaughtering methods, and defenders of kosher methods of slaughter.
