BAND Excellent MUsic _ For All Social Occasions 731.6081 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.

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.
