Med Schools' estriction on Jews
Likely
, AJ Committee Study Warns

Israel Warns Egypt on Attacks by Fedayeen,;
to Confer with Harninarskjold at United Nations

,

NEW YORK — More than
one-fourth of the hospital posi-
tions in the United States for
resident physicians currently
remain unfilled due to the
shortage of medical school
graduates. The number of medi-
cal school applicants will double
by 1965 with the increased com-
petition bringing about the
possible return of tightly re-
stricted admission policies based
en religious, racial and resi-
dential quotas.
These developments and dan-
ger signs were stressed by the
American Jewish Committee in
a study focused on medical
education trends as well as on
a number of factors
dis-



criminatory practices and geo-
graphic restrictions
which
detract from the full use of
limited medical school facilities.
At the present time, although
the "quota" system has been
virtually abandoned, discrim-
inatory admission policies still
exist particularly against Jew-
ish students and Catholics of
Italian descent. 'The "quota"
system, devised more than 30
years ago when applications to
medical schools increased sharp-
ly, allotted a quota of admis-
sions to religious and ethnic
groups in the U. S. based on
ea c h group's proportionate
number to the total population.
The study, which was pre-
pared by Lawrence Bloomgar-



den, a specialist in the social

aspects of medicine, warned
that "a likely result of the in-
creased competition for medical
school places" will be "the

tightening up again of restric-
tive admission policies both
through residential limitations
and through ethnic and reli-
gious quotas." The present ratio
of two applicants for each medi-
cal school opening is expected
to rise to four each by 1965,1
from a total of 15,000 for 7,8001
places to 36,000 for 8,650 open - ,

ings.
The study disclosed that in-

stead of arithmetical quotas,
"personality" has become the
device medical schools now re-
sorted to in order to continue
their discriminatory admission

After listing 50 instances of
infiltration, mining and theft,
the statement said: "It is clear
that just as in the past these

which the Egyptian authorities

The Foreign Ministry also
revealed that Egypt has moved
a battalion of Sudanese troops
into Gaza.
At the UN, Secretary Gen-
eral Hammarskjold said that a
solution to the Middle East
situation is "perfectly possible"
with the assistance of the UN.
He made the statement in a
television .interview.
Settlement "must be a ques-
tion of the development of
policy, in a spirit of great fair-
ness and great understanding
of the various groups in the re-
gion," Hammarskjold declared.
"I think personally that it is
perfectly possible to find a
solution with full regard to
these various aspirations."
