THE DETROIT `Immigration Unaffected by T erroris t - s, (Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News) LONDON—The new director gen- eral of the Jewish Agency's immi- grant absorption department said at a press conference here Tues- day that the security situation in Israel was not affecting the flow of immigration. He predicted an in- flux of from 361)00 to 40;000 new- comers in 1969 compared to just over 30,000 in 1968. Gen. Uzi Narkiss, who command- ed the paratroop brigade that cap- tured East Jerusalem from Jordan in the Six-Day War, said that Arab terrorists have not succeeded in dis- rupting life in Israel which, he declared was "normal." He added that Israeli security forces are stronger than ever. Gen. Naikiss said the process- ing of immigration had become more efficient recently due to establishment of Telex communi- cations between the Jewish Agency in Jerusalem and aliya centers abroad. He said about 1,500 immigrants were expected from Britain this year, about 7,000 from North Africa alone. He added that "Immigrants are now reaching Israel from sources that could not have been antici- pated only a few months ago." He did not specify what those sources were, but observed that immigra- tion was second in importance only to national defense. Gen. Narkiss said his new post was more diffi- cult and more demanding than anything he had known in the military or diplomatic fields. During his week's visit to Bri- tain, he will meet with Chief Rabbi Immanuel Jakobitz and other leaders of British Jewry. He will address a public rally for immiga- tion here on March 2. The Jewish Agency Executive devoted a.full session Tuesday to the problems of Jewish educa- tion, and heard a pessimistic re- port on its status abroad. According to Haim Finkelstein, head of the agency's department for education and culture, about 700,000 Jewish children in the free world receive some sort of Jewish education, but over a million get none at all. He said there was an urgent need for at least 2,000 more teachers in Jewish communities abroad. Jewish Agency Chairman Aryeh L. Pincus disclosed that the United Jewish Appeal's Israel Education Fund has brought in $25,000,000 since it was established four years ago. He said that in that period the Jewish Agency had constructed 32 schools and educational and cul- tural institutions in new develop- ment towns. Pincus spoke at a farewell lunch- eon to Ralph Goldman, outgoing director-general of the education fund. Goldman has been appointed co-chairman of Malben, the Joint Distribution Committee agency helping aged and sick in Israel.
