Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MP-$1.00 BC-$11.95 DESCRIPTORS Acculturation, Educational Needs, Educational Opportunities, *Educational Problems, *Educational Programs, Educational Resources, Ethnic Groups, *Ethnic Relations, Ncn Western Civilization, Research and Development Centers, *Research Projects IDENTIFIERS Committee On Education And Labor, Hebrew University, *Israel, Tel Aviv University ABSTRACT This Congressional Subcommittee report on education in Israel begins with a brief narrative of impressions on preschool programs, kibbutz, vocational programs, and compensatory programs. Although the members of the subcommittee do not want to make definitive judgments on the applicability of education in Israel to American needs, they are most favorably impressed by the great emphasis which the Israelis place on early childhood programs, vocational/technical education, and residential youth villages. The people of Israel are considered profoundly dedicated to the support of education at every level. The country works toward expansion of opportunities for education, based upon a belief that the educational system is the key to the resolution of major social problems. In the second part of the report, the detailed itinerary of the subcommittee is described with annotated comments about the places and persons visited. In the last part, appendixes describing in great depth characteristics of the Israeli education system (higher education in Israel, education and culture, and the kibbutz) are reprinted.

  • Natan Rapoport's Soviet Style of the Yad Mordechai and Negba Memorials
    Chapter 14 Natan Rapoport’s Soviet Style of the Yad Mordechai and Negba Memorials 14.1 Ghetto Heroism and Israeli Valor The very same year of the Herzl gravesite competition, art critic Eugen Kolb met Russian-Jewish sculptor Natan Rapoport (mentioned in chapter 8) in Tel- Aviv. The meeting resulted in an article in which he shared basic, primary ideas about the nature of future Israeli memorials: At a time that many among us begin to design memorials for our War of Independence … Kibbutz Yad Mordechai did well in taking upon itself the initiative to entrust Natan Rapoport with the mission of erect- ing the suitable memorial for the Kibbutz Fallen and to the hero of the Warsaw Ghetto, whose name was adopted by that kibbutz—Mordechai Anilewizc.1 Connecting the Warsaw Ghetto fighters with those of Israel’s Independence War was a popular contemporary Zionist concept. Idit Zartal explains it as wishing to integrate the Ghetto uprisings into the narrative of Israel’s Independence War, one link in a chain of battles for the Land of Israel. It would show that the Diaspora Jews participated in the fight for a Jewish State and that the Zionist struggle for the Jewish state meant life or death. It associated the destiny of European Jewry with the right for the establishment of a Jewish state after World War II.2 Kolb’s great admiration for Natan Rapoport is quite understandable in this context; The Russian sculptor arrived in Israel a few days after the unveiling of his memorial to the Warsaw ghetto uprising in Warsaw (April 19, 1949).

  • ABOUT YOAV Established in 1952 and Located South of Jerusalem And
    ABOUT YOAV Established in 1952 and located south of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, east of Ashqelon and north of Beersheva, it is named after the late Yitzhak Dubno (nicknamed Yoav), the first commander of Kibbutz Negba in the independence war of 1948. Yoav is centrally located. The regional council is comprised of 14 communities (8 kibbutzim, 3 moshavim, a youth village, an Arab Village and a new country center) with a combined population of approximately 5,200 people. The region covers approximately 57,500 acres. Each kibbutz and moshav has its own unique history and identity. The residents of Yoav come from all over the world (In one kibbutz alone, they have counted 29 different nationalities!), resulting in a very dynamic and vibrant community that blends and harmonizes the multi ethnic backgrounds. The Region has an extensive recreational appeal, with hot springs, caves, and archaeological sites. In addition to recreation and tourism, their industry base includes agriculture and manufacturing. They are part of the Kiryat Gat industrial zone, where there is an Air Products plant that supports the needs of the Intel Factory. Militarily, the region has a border patrol army base that protects their vulnerable perimeter along the West Bank. ECONOMY Agriculture: 25% Industry: 24% Tourism: 8% Services and Education: 43% The main occupation in Yoav is agriculture: field crops, orchards, dairy, chickens, hot‐houses for growing flowers and winter vegetables. The region supports these agricultural efforts with various industries that are involved in research, processing, packing and distribution. AGRICULTURE AND RELATED INDUSTRY AND RESOURCES: Agrinir is involved in the entire olive oil production process ‐‐ from growing and pressing the olives, to bottling and marketing.

  • About the War of Independence
    About the War of Independence Israel's War of Independence is the first war between the State of Israel and the neighboring Arab countries. It started on the eve of the establishment of the state (May 14, 1948) and continued until January 1949. The war broke out following the rejection of the United Nation's Partition Plan, Resolution 181 of the General Assembly (November 29, 1947), by the Arab states and the Arab Higher Committee. The representatives of the Arab states threatened to use force in order to prevent the implementation of the resolution. Stage 1: November 29, 1947 - March 31, 1948 Arab violence erupted the day after the ratification of Resolution 181. Shots were fired on a Jewish bus close to Lod airport, and a general strike declared by the Arab Higher Committee resulted in the setting fire and the plundering of the Jewish commercial district near the Jaffa Gate in Jerusalem. There were still 100,000 British troops stationed in Palestine, which were much stronger than both Arab and Israeli forces. Nevertheless, the British policy was not to intervene in the warfare between the two sides, except in order to safeguard the security of British forces and facilities. During this period, Arab military activities consisted of sniping and the hurling of bombs at Jewish transportation along main traffic arteries to isolated Jewish neighborhoods in ethnically mixed cites and at distant settlements. The Hagana, the military arm of the organized Yishuv, (the Jewish community of Palestine) put precedence on defensive means at first, while being careful to restrict itself to acts of retaliation against perpetrators directly responsible for the attacks.
