CHICAGO—A film based on a
Hassidic tale produced in Chicago
by three young Jewish entrepre-
neurs which won a "New Critics
Prize" at the Cannes Film Festival
will have its premiere in Chicago
later this summer.
"Goldstein," written, produced
and directed by Philip Kaufman,
27, Benjamin Manaster, 26, and
Zvi Braun is a retelling of a tale
dealing with a search for the
Prophet Elijah related to every-
day life in a city like Chicago.
The Cannes prize was the first
awarded to an American f u 1 1-

scribed it as the first film "based
on Judaism rather than just Jewish
characters or a Jewish problem."

Minneapolis Day School
Selected for Experiment

MINNEAPOLIS (JTA) — Torah
Academy, a Hebrew day school
founded here 20 years ago, has
been selected by the University
of Minnesota as an experimental
school where new standards of
teaching mathematics will be im-
plemented, according to an an-
nouncement by Dr. Paul J. Rosen-
bloom, chief of the university's
mathematics center.
The program is being financed
primarily by the National Science
Foundation in an effort to work
out new methods for teaching sci-
ence in elementary and high
schools. Prof. Nathan Gottfried of
Miami University, Oxford, 0., will
supervise the new educational ex-
periment, occupying an office in
the Torah Academy's new building
here.

Israel Urged to Give Greater Priority to the Education of Its Labor Force

Investment in
TEL AVIV
"human capital" was described as
the key to Israel's economic de-
velopment by Dr. William Haber,
president of the American ORT
Federation and dean at the Uni-
versity of Michigan.
He urged far greater priority
to education in Israel since "edu-
cation and advancement in knowl-
edge are everywhere active factors
for economic growth and general
improvement in living standards."
Drawing on American experi-
ence, Dr. Haber, who is an adviser
to the U.S. secretary of labor,
noted that "over 40 percent of the
growth in national recovery since
1929 in the U.S. can be attributed
to improvement in the education
of the labor force. What is true
today for the advanced countries
will be equally true for develop-
ing countries and is especially ap-
plicable to Israel."
Dr. Haber made his observations
in the course of a lecture delivered
here during a study mission of
ORT vocational training activities
in Israel. ORT technical schools
and . other services are expected
to enroll over 20,000 persons in
Israel during 1964.
Earlier, in New York, a re-
port was made public by Ameri-
can ORT estimating that be-
tween 40,000 and 50,000 youths
of high school age in Israel are
neither in school nor at work.
These young people are "poten-
tially Israel's greatest social dan-
ger unless they are brought within
the range of opportunity for edu-
cation and training for work," the
report declared.
The report warned that 12,000
Algerian Jewish refugees who fled
to France in recent years face a
serious "skills deficit" which is
impeding their absorption into the
economic life of the country. It

—

noted that, whereas 70 per cent
of available jobs call for skills,
surveys indicate that 70 per cent
of the refugees "brought no skills
with them that are adaptable to
employment in France."
"During 1964 and for many
years to come, the vocational train-
ing programs of ORT in France
will be grappling with the problem
of instructing thousands of these
newcomers, fathers and sons alike,
in the skills they must have to
find work, support their families
and rebuild their lives," the report
declared.

It announced that 40,129 persons
received educational and economic
assistance in 582 ORT training
units during 1963. Since the end
of the Second World War, ORT
has taught trades to over 500,000
trainees.

With ORT programs conducted
in 22 countries last year, the re-
port noted that "this network
comprises the largest non-govern-
mental system of vocational edu-
cation in the world." Major activi-
ties are centered in Israel, North

BONN—The official Hesse State
reward for the capture of Josef
Mengele, the "selection doctor" at
the Auschwitz death camp, rose to
$15,000 Wednesday, at the same
time that a prosecutor charged
that Mengele has visited his home
town in West Germany at least
once without being detected.
The charge was made by the
prosecutor in the trial in Frank-
furt of 22 former personnel of the
Auschwitz camp, who also accused
Paraguay of providing a refugee
for Mengele. Asserting that Men-
gele, who disappeared from Ger-
many in the early 1950s, was now
in Asuncion, the prosecutor said
he was convinced that the protec-
tion for Mengele "comes from the
highest levels of the Paraguayan
government."
He said that Mengele had visited
Guenzburg near Ulm at least once
despite the fact that there was a
standing warrant for his arrest. It
was indicated that the people of
that town were unwilling to dis-
close Mengele's whereabouts.
The Bild Zeitung, a West Ger-
man newspaper, reported that one
of its correspondents was threat-
ened by four youths while search-
ing for Mengele in Guenzburg. The
newspaper quoted a Guenzberg man
as asserting that the city was "a
Nazi castle, worse than Munich
ever was." Alois Mengele, head of
the Guenzberg motor works, de-
nied knowing his brother's where-
abouts.

MUNICH (JTA ) --B a vari an news-
papers accused the state's minis-

Coppel immediately ordered an
examination of all of Prof. Maunz's
legal writings.

has grown from 1,315 in 1949 to
