Yiddish-Speaking
Jews Excluded From
Govt. Aid Programs
NEW YORK (JTA) — The
New York Metropolitan Co-
ordinating Council accused
the U.S. Department of
Health, Education and Wel-
fare of failing to respond di-
rectly to a coordinating coun-
cil request to .qualify Jews
whose primary language is
Yiddish to benefit from gov-
ernment programs to aid
minority groups.
Jerome M. Becker, coor-
dinating council president,
said he had made a specific
request in a March 25 letter
to HEW Secretary Caspar
Weinberger.
Becker said he had asked
the city's Human Resources
Administration, which dis-
burses federal anti-poverty
funds, to issue a directive
that Yiddish-speaking per-
sons be included in guide-
lines for grants to minority
groups, and that in all fu-
ture regulations for legisla-
tion, HEW should specifically
include the Yiddish language
in its definitions of minority
group status, as it had done
with the Spanish language.
Such a step, he added,
"would reap benefits for
thousands of Yiddish-speak-
ing citizens throughout the
country."

HAIFA — Vanya Stein, a
Haifa housewife, has her
pound of flesh today — the
result of • a suit against her
neighbor for putting a frog
.in Mrs. Stein's pot of fish
stew.
The plaintiff's attorney
said her neighbor, Tamara
Malucha, caused Mrs. Stein
"great distress" by putting
the frog in the stew because
frogs are not kosher. As a
result, the attorney said, his
client was forced to throw
out the stew.
The magistrate fined Mrs.
Malucha IL 1 (2,4 cents).
