JERUSALEM (JTA) —
The most revealing meas-
ure of inflation in the new
statistical annual is its
price —IL 170. Compared to
last year's annual which
cost IL 95, this is an in-
crease of some 80 percent.
The new annual has some
details about world Jewry.
At the end of 1977 there
were 14,260,000 Jews in the
world, 21 percent of them
(3,020,000) in Israel.
World Jewry has not yet
reached its number on the
eve of World War II — 16.7
million. At the present
growth rate, the number of
Jews in the world will reach
the level at the end of the
century.
The new annual shows a
decrease in the birth rate in
Israel. The number of new
births last year was 95,315,
a decrease of 3.5 percent
compared to the 98,763 born
in 1976.
The rate of families with
more than seven persons
decreased in the last decade
from 12 percent to less than
10 percent. Most of the de-
crease is in the Jewish popu-
lation, specifically among
Jews of Asian and African
origin.
Sadat's Problems
CAIRO (ZINS) — Obser-
vers believe that President
Sadat of Egypt could be
threatened, in the afte ►
math of Camp David, by as-
sassination, cut-off of funds
from Saudi Arabia, expul-
sion of 1.5 million Egyptian
workers in other Arab coun-
tries or lack of loyalty in the
Egyptian army.
NEW YORK (JTA) —
Shmuel Goldstein, a Yid-
dish stage actor, died Nov.
23 at age 70.
Mr. Goldstein, who used

Goldstein, had a lengthy
career as a Yiddish stage
star. He had been in the cur-
rent Folksbiene production
here of "The Inheritors," an
adaptation of a , Sholem
Aleichem story, the latest of
a long succession of theatr-
credits . -
Born in Lodz, Poland, M.L.
Goldstein began his acting
career there, escaping to the
Soviet Union during World
War II. He returned to Po-
land after the war and then
settled in Paris. There he
worked in the Yiddish thea-
ter and took assignments as
a standup Yiddish comic.
After emigrating to the
United States in 1953, his
performances included
roles in four much
praised Yiddish prod-
uctions — "Yoshe Kolb,"
"It's Hard to Be a Jew,"
"The Big Winner," and
"The Fifth Season."

NEW YORK — As part of
its 40th anniversary of serv-
ice to the Jewish people, the
United Jewish Appeal will
sponsor an essay contest for
high school students in the
United States and Israel, it
was announced by Irwin S.
Field, the UJA national
Historic Fact
The series on Zionist
pioneer Dr. Max Nordau
contained an erroneous
phrase, added to some of the
biographical texts, accord-
ing to the author, Nordau's
daughter Maxa.
She writes from Paris
that in some texts its was
stated that in the early
years of this century the
famous Spanish edict of
1492 against the Jews had
been abolished in Spain and
the Jewish faith was offi-
cially recognized.
Maxa Nordau points out
that this only happened in
the last few years, and not
in her father's time.
Sameness is the mother of
disgust, variety the cure.
— Petrarch
chairman. The topic for the
contest is "UJA — Forty
Years of Jewish Lifeline."
In order to emphasize
that this contest -is a learn-
ing experience, and to
minimize the competitive
.nature, UJA will recognize
the participation of all
entrants by granting them
an official certificate of
achievement.
There will, moreover, be
no ranking of prizes in the
United States: the authors
of the 10 best essays will
each be given a round trip to
Israel, to enable them to
examine at first hand the
subjects explored in their
essays. While there, they
will have a one-day guided
tour by the United Jewish
Appeal.
The Israeli first prize
winner will receive a
three-year university tui-
tion scholarship; the second
prize winner, a two-year
tuition scholarship; and the
third prize winner will re-
ceive a one-year tuition
scholarship.
Those wishing to partici-
pate may obtain entry forms
until Feb. 15 from the Na-
tional UJA office, 1290
Avenue of the Americas,
New York 10019. The win-
ners will be announced on
May 2, Israel's Indepen-
dence Day.
The accompanying "Dry
Bones" cartoon from the
Jerusalem Post has been
dedicated ta_the contest by
"Dry Bones" creator Yaacov
Kirschen.
