WASHINGTON, (JTA) — A
plan to establish a national
commission for the education
and welfare. of Jewish school
personnel was passed by the
third national conference on
Jewish education.
The action was the final move
of the four - day conference
which considered ways to alle-
viate the teacher shortage in
Jewish schools. The need for
long-range planning to deal with
the teacher shortage problem
called for the establishment of
a permanent, representative na-
tional commission, according to
the findings of the conference.
It is estimated that about 700
new teachers are needed every
year to fill faculty vacancies in
the 2,800 Jewish week-day and
Sunday schools throughout the
country. At present approxi-
mately 125 teachers a year are
being graduated from Jewish
teachers colleges. The .national
conference set. forth recommen-
dations to cope with teacher
shortages.
. The national commission will
be empowered to implement the
proposals, among which are the
following: consolidation of small
schools to better utilize avail-
able manpower; organization of
a recruitment program; offers
of scholarships and stipends to
deserving people; formulation of
a code of practice for all com-
munities to develop better work-
ing conditions for teaching per-
sonnel; enlargement of the
teachers professional service to
include group work and adult
education; and the extension of
teacher education.
Membership on the national
commission will be composed of
lay and professional leadership
of all Jewish institutions and
organizations involved in the
problem of teacher education
and welfare. A committee' on
financing was envisioned to
raise funds required by the
commission.
The national conference,
12 Jews to Serve
in New Congress
sponsored by the American As-
sociation for Jewish Education,
attracted more than 400 dele-
gates from 60 communities in
the U.S.
During the conference, Philip
M Klutznick, president of Bnai
Brith, spoke about the Middle
East crisis. He emphasized that
any United Nations effort to
halt armed hostilities in the
Middle East would be unsuccess-
ful unless it clgals with the fun-
damental problem of Nasser's
ambitions for a pan-Arabic em-
•pire and his refusal to recog-
nize the existence of Israel.
