deputies added to the confusion
by shouting insults at the lef-
tists. Soon other deputies joined
the disorder and when contin-
ued gavel pounding failed to
restore order, the Speaker
angrily closed the session.
Deputy Toubi, in his attack on
the government and the army,
spoke in Arabic. He took this
step after a debate precipitated
by a Herut motion to establish
Hebrew as the sole official lan-
guage of the state. Mr. Ben-Gu-
rion opposed the Herut move,
declaring:

state medical scholarship, good
in any school in this state, on
the basis of written competitive
exam inations.
This survey revealed that the
41 Jewish students who won the
'state scholarships, had to file a
total of 215 applications with •
the nine state schools to gain •
admittance, or twice as many •
per capita as the 16 non-Jewish •
winners who filed 39 applica- •
•
tions, a ratio of 5.4 to 2.4. Thus. •
the samplings revealed applica- •

winners achieved a record of •
•
76.1 percent of acceptance by •
New York medical schools, while •
•
those of Jewish winners ac-
hieved only 35.9 per cent, al- •
•
though both groups ranked •
equally in scholarship and medi-
cal aptitudes.
Further analysis revealed that
Cornell Univ ersity's medical
school and the Flower Hospital's
New York Medical College were
the worst offenders; the former
accepted only two out of 30
Jewish state scholarship win-
ners, the latter only one out of
13. Cornell medical school also
rejected the application of ev-

ord was hardly better, its College

cepting three of the 19 Jewish
