  • Australia (1962)
    Australia' D'URIN, G the period under review (July 1960 to June 1961) the Liberal and Country coalition government, under Prime Minister Robert G. Menzies, adopted policies designed to check the boom of the previous year. The lifting of import controls, tight money, and reduced prices for primary products combined to slow business activity, and there was significant un- employment for the first time since World War II. Controversy developed over the immigration program. JEWISH COMMUNITY Australia's population exceeded ten million, the exact figure awaiting the publication of the census of 1961. The Jewish population, previously esti- mated at 67,000, was increased by some 1,200 immigrants from Europe dur- ing the year and by an unknown natural increase. Most Jews lived in Mel- bourne, Victoria (32,000), and Sydney, New South Wales (30,000). There were also 1,750 in Brisbane, Queensland; 1,300 in Adelaide, South Australia; 3,000 in Perth, Western Australia; 100 in Canberra, Australian Capital Ter- ritory; 100 in Hobart and Launceston, Tasmania, and a few in other provincial centers. As in previous years, Jewish immigrants came principally from Poland, Israel, Rumania, and Hungary. Some Jews began to arrive from South Africa, but since they were economically independent and required no visas, their number was not known. Community Organization and Activity For the basic structure of the Jewish community see AJYB, 1961 (Vol. 62), pp. 372-73. CJMCAG provided a total of A£115,650f of which about A£98,150 went for social services and A £.17,500 for education. Relief for immigrants and other major social services were handled by welfare societies in each state, united in the Australian Federation of Jewish Welfare Societies.

  • Jewish Life in Melbourne by Sender Burstin
    JEWISH LIFE IN MELBOURNE BY SENDER BURSTIN Over 30,000 Jews live in Melbourne today. In comparison to other Jewish settlements around the world, it is moderately small, but it shouldn’t be ashamed compared with other Jewish settlements with its branched net of institutions of national, religious, educational and helping character compared with many big Jewish settlements. Sydney also has about the same number of Jews. It also possesses several Jewish institutions. This settlement is older than the Melbourne settlements, yet the pulse of Jewish life beats a lot stronger and impulsively in Melbourne and is more colourful than in Sydney. The reasons that caused the difference between the two cities were different. In the time when the Sydney community consisted of a majority of British‐German ‘stock’ and less Jews from Eastern Europe, the content of the Melbourne community was just the opposite. The big national and social ideas that caught the Jewish people in Eastern Europe, in Russia and Poland at the end of the 19th century, were carried here by the stream of Jewish immigration. This was expressed even more by the post‐war immigration. While the Jews from Hungary and Germany went to Sydney, the Polish Jews went to Melbourne. They helped form and shape the character of the community. It didn’t just help a little that personalities from big cultural communal worth settled for a time or permanently in Melbourne. They, with their national‐educational work, influenced the development of the community. In the coming chapters, an attempt will be made to give, in short features, the road of development of the Jewish settlement in Melbourne.
