Judge Frumkin's last post in
Israel was as chairman of the
committee which investigated
the charges of discrimination
a g a i ns t Yemenites in Israel
camps. Judge Frumkin ex-
pressed the view that the major
point in his report dealt with
the problem of schools and edu-
cation. His committee recom-
mended a unified educational
system — a plan which has the
endorsement of David Ben-Gu-
lion. He expressed the view
that the Yemenite issue precipi-
tated the present crisis and that
a direct result of his report will
be the eventual unification of
Israel's schools into one system.
• Speaking on Israel in general,
he remarked that the cabinet
crisis is due to economic diffi-
culties brought on by large-
scale immigration. "Ben-Guri-
on," he said, "will probably re-
main the strong man in Israel."
He also lauded the work of
four Arab members of the Knes-
set and expressed his opinion
that peace with the Arab states JTA Staff Member's

THE JEWISH NEWS

Jews Leave Ancient
Community for Israel

Friday, November 3. 1950

ISTANBUL, (JTA) — The first
Israel-bound emigrants from the
Jewish community of Van — a
town in easternmost Turkey —
have arrived here. They are
being sheltered, together with
Kurdish Jews from western Iran,
in a synagogue while awaiting
transportation to the Jewish
state.
The Jewish community of Van
is one of the oldest in the world.
Its history dates back to the
period prior to destruction of
the First Temple in Jerusalem.
Numbering about 250 persons,
the Van community maintained
no contact with other Jewish
communities in Turkey.
In addition to Turkish and
Kurdish, the Jews of Van speak
Aramaic, which they consider
their mother tongue. They also
use Hebrew letters in their cor-
respondence and carefully ob-
serve all traditional Jewish prac-
tices. The synagogue in Van
contains a valuable library of
ancient books and. scrolls.
