Housing State's Top Landlord for New Immigrants By HAIM SHACHTER JERUSALEM — Amidar Housing Co., established jointly by the Is- rael government and the Jewish Agency for the purpose of erecting and administering housing mainly for new immigrants. is Israel's biggest landlord. In 1968. 70,000 families — about one-third the total number of Jew- ish families living in rented prem- ises in the country—occupied hous- ing administered by the Amidar Co. The majority of these families arrived in the country after the establishment of the state. Seventy- four per cent hailed from Africa and Asia: 25 per cent from Euro- pean countries. Generally, families occupying Amidar housing are larger than the countrywide average: they consist of 4.8 person per family as compared with 3.8 in the aver- age Jewish family in Israel. Hence, the density of population in Amidar housing (2.1 persons per room) is higher than the country- wide average of 1.6 persons per room. The average monthly rent- al per family amounted to 25 pounds (57.25) per flat, and con- stituted about 5.6 per cent of thi: family income. The annual income per wage- earning family in Amidar housing. is about 6,480 pounds ($1,879) as compared with 9.650 pounds (52398) for the general Jewish wage-earn- ing population.

Sulamith Ish-Kishor is known for many of her children's books, many based on Jewish historical facts and on legendary back- grounds, like her "Boy of Old Pra- gue." In her newest children's book, "Our Eddie." published by Pant- heon Books. Miss Ish-Kishor deals with the realities that face immi- grants. First there are the struggles and the family difficulties in London. Then there are the New York ex- periences where the head of the Raphel family dedicates himself to Hebrew studies and to Zonism. One hears so often about the mother-child complexes in Jewish literary creations that this book is a departure: it is the constant quarreling between father and children and especially with Eddie who is not well, who does not get along with the papa, who has an ambition that is thwarted and whose death ends the father's as- piration to have him settle in Pal- estine. It's a story filled with bitter feuds and is a revealing narrative i about immigrant struggles. It is also a story of stubbornness that is often unaccountable. Filled with action it does reveal situations that depict a family often in dis- cord. 4th Auschwitz Trial Set to Open in Frankfurt BONN (JTA) — A fourth "Aus- freed on recommendation of doc- chwitz trial" will open soon in tors.
