JERUSALEM (ZINS)—The
accusation that Israel's 375,-
000 Arabs are second-class
citizens is refuted by data
culled from the official Statis-
tical Institute, on the social
and economic gains made by
Arabs living. on the pre-1967
borders of Israel.
The majority of the Arab
community are young people
who have a natural birthrate
of 42 per 1,000 of population,
compared with a birthrate
among Jews of only 17 per
1,000. (In other parts of the
Arab world the average na-
tural birthrate is only 26 per
1,000.)
Forty-two per cent of the
Arab families in Israel have
seven children or more.
In 1948, when Israel be-
came an independent state,
the rate of illiteracy among
the Arabs was 95 per cent;
in 1972, the illiteracy is only
5 per cent.
Twenty-five years ago,
there was 10,000 Arab stu-
dents enrolled in the schools.
In 1972, the enrollment had
grown to 110,000.
When Israel was proclaim-
ed, only 4 per cent of Arab
women received maternity
care in hospitals; now 94
per cent have their babies

they did not consider the

ronto synagogue as having
been vacated and had not
been asked to recommend a

organizations, as well as the
Canadian Jewish Congress,
offered to mediate the issue.
Editor, The Jewish News:
I was delighted to read, in
last week's issue of The Jew-
ish News, of the decision of
Rabbi Shlomo Goren, Ash-
kenazic Chief Rabbi of the
state of Israel. to form a
World Rabbinical Council
which would accept as its
members all rabbis, scholars
and learned laymen, regard-
less of their affiliation, as
long as they prescribe to the
Halakha and to the laws set
forth in the .Shulhan Arukh.
Rabbi Goren is to be hail-
ed as a man of profound
scholarship and prophetic
wisdom. In addition to these
qualities, he has a keen per-
ception of the needs of mod-
ern living Judaism.
Even as the Almighty is
One, and His Torah is One,
so are His people One. It is
time that we cast from our-
selves the spurious designa-
tion of labels that have no
meaning: Orthodox, Conser-
vative, Reform. The Jewish
outlook spurns divisiveness
among its people. We are
one nation. We are all Jews.
And what makes us Jews is
an unconditional commitment
to Torah, to the Halakha ,
and to the life-style deline-
ated in the Shulhan Arukh.
We should, follow the in-
spiring charisma of Rabbi
Goren and strive to achieve
a Jewish Ecumenism, so
that in the words of the
prophet, we will all be united
in "agudah akhat," on bind
in the service of the Lord.
Sincere yours,
RABBI JACK GOLDMAN

'First Do Good Deeds'
Let a man first do good
deeds, and then ask God for
knowledge of) Torah: let a
man first act as righteous
and upright men act , and
then let him ask God for
wisdom: let a man first
grasp the way of humility,
and then ask God for under-
standing.—Tanna Debe Eli- ;
