JERUSALEM — Premier Da-
vid Ben-Gurion, in his capacity
as Defense Minister, has or-
dered Brig. Moshe Dayan,
former Army Chief of Staff
now on leave, to forego public
appearances "in the interests
of hygienic politics."
Ben-Gurion announced his
order in the Knesset Tuesday
during debate on a Herut
motion of non-confidence in
the - government for its permit-
ting Brig. Dayan, a member of
the armed forces, to make
political speeches. The Herut
motion was defeated 63 to 27.
Responding to Herut and
General Zionist heckling
against the presence of Brig.
Dayan and other senior army
officers at Mapai public rallies,
the Premier said that he was
proud that the army had been
kept out of politics in Israel.
He knew of no other country
in the world, Ben-Gurion con-
tinued, where the army inter-
fered less in poitics than in
Israel.
However, he continued, in
view of the storm raised over
Dayan's speeches, he deemed it
advisable to request the officer
to end his public addresses.
Israel Grants Bail
to Ex-Detroit Convict
Exclusive to the Jewish News
TEL AVIV—"I have as much
right to stay in Israel as every
other Jew," declared William
Jacob, Detroit-born escaped
convict, who was released here
on bail of 10,000 Israeli pounds
while awaiting deportation.
Jacob, who arrived in Israel
on a false passport in which
his name was listed as Ben Shi-
treet, said the Israeli press mis-
represented him when it de-
fined him as a gangster while
he committed only "two crimes."
On the second crime, he was
sentenced to 15 years' imprison-
ment by an American court, but
escaped while serving in an
open farm for juvenile crim-
inals in Michigan.
Though official sources denied
there was any pressure exerted
on them, rumors spread here
that his family, known contribu-
tors to Israeli funds, used in-
fluence to obtain a lessez passer
which would permit him to
leave the country.
Jacob, himself, said he de-
sires to settle in. Israel and be-
come a productive and loyal
citizen.
occupations last year at ORT
schools in 19 countries, accord-
ing to a report just made pub-
lic. The report, entitled "ORT
Yearbook, 1958," was released
simultaneously by the American
ORT Federation in New York
and the international ORT of-
fice in Geneva.
In 1957, the international
ORT network comprised 473
trade schools, training work-
shops and farms and apprentice
plans. Enrollment was 21 per-
cent higher than during the
previous year. The Yearbook
anticipates the number of
trainees in 1958 at considerably
over 30,000.
The 6,000 graduates of the
class of '57 were practically
all placed on jobs without dif-
' ficulty. The review attributes
this high placement record to
the "ready job market created
by the shorttage of skills prev-
alent in Israel, North Africa,
Iran and Western Europe, the
principal areas of ORT activ-
ity."
$5,000,000, "a sum in excess of
the entire cost of ORT work
last year," the Yearbook notes.
In December 1957, ORT, to-
gether with JDC, was among
the first voluntary agencies to
undertake activities in Eastern
Europe. Acting on an invitation
from Poland, ORT instituted a
vocational program among 10,-
000 Jewish repatriates released
from the Soviet Union. By the
end of Marsh 1958, such pro-
grams were operating in 12

Wth respect to Israel, where
7,000 persons attend ORT trade
schools in 22 localities through-
out the land. the Yearbook
warns that a crisis in education
similar to that which occurred
in the U.S. during the post-war
years may well be in the off-
ing.
The report points to the
booming birthrate, a sharp rise
in primary school enrollment
and rapid increase of industrial
occupations,
