New York Jewish School Enrollment
Up Three Percent; Figure at 136,391

NEW YORK, (JTA) — The
number of pupils enrolled in
Jewish schools in Greater New
York in_the current school year
:reached a total Of 136,391. This
is an increase of a little over
'three percent over the total
enrollment of the previous year,-
the Jewish Education Commit-
tee reported.
"BecaUse of the excellent co-
operation of the 675 Jewish
schools of all- types operating in
Greater New York, it was pos-
sible for the JEC to publish the
results of its annual Jewish
school census before the end
of the school year, much earlier
Than in pre?ious years," the
report said.
The enrollment in high school
"classes increased a little over
four percent during the past
year. This is somewhat higher
than the increase of a little over
-three percent in the elementary
school classes. The higher en-
rollment in high school classes
took place entirely in one-day-
a-week schools, where high
.school classes are part of the
confirmation department and
meet for one session per week.
The greatest gain in enroll-
ment over the past year was
shown by the all-day schools,
where the number of children
.increased by a little over eleven
percent as against an increase

.

of a little over four percent in
the weekday-afternoon schools
and a small decline in the en-
rollment in one-day-a-week
schools.

During the past year the all-
day schools and weekday after-
noon schools have increased
their proportional share in the
total enrollment. All-day schools
now account for 19 percent of
the total school enrollment,
compared with 17 1/2 percent the
previous year.

Weekday afternoon schools
had 45 percent of the total en-
rollment compared with 44%
percent the previous year. The
one-day-a-week school showed
a slight decline from 37 1/2 per-
cent the previous year, to 36
percent this year.
The latter type of school, how-
ever, has increased substantially
its proportional share of the
total high school enrollment
from 29 percent to 36 percent.

British Watch Ku Klux Klan
LONDON (JTA)—Home Sec-
retary R. A. Butler told 'Com-
mons that the British police
were keeping an eye on ac-
tivities of the newly-organized
Ku Klux Klan in Britain. He
promised that if the Klan com-
mitted any breach of the peace,
the police would act.
