Rise in Jewish Education Shown
in Year Book; Population Cited
Enrollment in Jewish Sunday
and weekday schools has risen
131 percent during the past
decade, growing from 239,000 to
a current total of approximately
554,000 students. The sharp in-
crease took place during a
period when the Jewish popu-
lation in this country grew only
by about 15 to 20 percent.
At the turn of the century,
there were slightly more than
one million Jews living in the
United States. Today, there
are approximately 5,367,000,
of whom 80% are native-born.
Sixty years ago, two-thirds of
the Jewish population were
immigrants.
These major developments
were reported in the American
Jewish Year Book, a 474-page
record of events, facts and
trends in American and world
Jewish life, issued for the 61st
consecutive year, just pub-
lished jointly by the American
Jewish Conimittee and the Jew-
ish Publication Society. Morris
Fine and Milton Himmelfarb
are the editors.
The 61st annual edition in-
cludes a broad range of articles
on: Jewish population data,
communal affairs, civil rights
and civil liberties, religion, anti-
Jewish agitation, and Jewish af-
fairs in countries throughout
the world.
Analyzing the reasons for the
growth of Jewish education the
Year Book report said that it
"reflects the new interest in
religious education among
Americans generally, as mani-
fested by increased enrollment
in the religious schools of all
denominations."
The Year Book figures
show that Sunday school en-
rollment rose from 120,896
pupils in 1948 to 249,662 in
1958; and weekday enrollment
from 118,502 to 303,938. The
report states that "the propor-
tionately larger increase in
weekday enrollment was prob-

ably due in large measure to
the intensification of Jewish
educational activity by all
Jewish religious groups."
In a report on world Jewish
population the Year Book said
there was a total Jewish popula-
tion estimated at almost 12,500,-
000. Of this number 6,300,000
were in North, Central and
South America; about 3,500,000
in Europe, while Asia has about
2 million. Some 550,000 Jews
live in Africa and about 68,000
in Australia and New Zealand.
The population of Israel is ap-
proximately 1,837,000 Jews and
225,000 non-Jews. About 42%
of the population falls into the
over 45 age group.
The Year Book reported that
there are only nine countries
with Jewish communities of
200,000 or more — the United
States, the Soviet Union, Israel,
Great Britain, Argentina,
France, Canada, Romania, and
Morocco. Of the 3,500,000 Jews
in Europe, between two and
three million were estimated to
be in the Soviet Union and its
satellites. The largest East
European community other than
the Soviet Union was in Ro-
mania, numbering 220,000.
Over six decades of the Year
Book's publication, Jewish or-
ganizational life has increased
apace, growing from 20 na-
tional Jewish groups to more
than 200 today.
In another section, the Year
Book reported on anti-Semitic
agitation in this country, say-
ing that the most effective anti-
Semitic and ,racist propaganda
tactics were "the exploitation of
southern tensions over desegre-
gation — an activity which kept
pace with the region's, mount-
ing troubles with this problem
ever since the Supreme Court
decisions in 1954 and 1955
against segregation in the pub-
lic schools."
NEW YORK, (JTA) — New
York City's public schools will,
hereafter, shut down annually
on Rosh Hashanah and Yom
Kippur, "for administrative rea-
sons," the city's Board of Edu-
cation decided unanimously.
Dr. John J. Theobald, super-
intendent of schools, recom-
mended the school closing on
the Jewish High Holy Days on
the grounds that, even in
schools where the pupils are
preponderantly non-Jewish, so
many teachers are absent on
the Jewish High Holy Days that
it is unsafe to keep the schools
open.
The board voted onl for the
closing of the schools this year
on Jewish New Year, which
falls Sept. 22 and 23. Yom Kip-
pur this year offers no prob-
lem, since it will come on a
Saturday. But the principle of
the shutdown will, after this
year, apply to Yom Kippur as
well as to Rosh Hashanah.
