NEW YORK — As re-
cently as 13 years ago,
Jewish instruction for the
deaf was non-existent.
Children with total or par-
tial hearing loss were un-
able to obtain the spe-
cialized instruction in
Judaism given to those who
could hear.
A solution to this problem
came in 1966 with the open-
ing of the Hebrew Institute
for Deaf and Exceptional
Children (HID).

dean of HID, recently
traveled to Israel. Ebstein
met with members of the
Knesset, professionals in
the field of special education
and concerned parents to
explore ways in which HID
could utilize its expertise in
aiding deaf and learning
disabled children in Israel.
Out of those meetings
came the decision to estab-
lish a teacher training pro-
gram in conjunction with
the Michala-Jerusalem Col-
lege for Women. A learning
disabled center is also being
planned.

Ribicoff Backs Easier U.S.
Peace Loan Term for Israel
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Sen. Abraham Ribicoff (D -
Conn.), told newsmen here
April 20, that he would
support Israel's request for
easier repayment terms on
the aid it will receive from
the U.S. to help cover the
costs of the Sinai pullback.
Visiting Jerusalem as a
member of a special U.S.
economic delegation headed
by Robert Strauss, Ribicoff
said he recognized that the
terms as they presently
stood would impose a very
heavy burden on Israel's
economy. He reportedly

SAN FRANCISCO (JTA)
— Iranian Jews visiting and
studying in the San Fran-
cisco Bay area, who are suf-
fering from the cutoff of all
funds from Iran to the
United States, are getting
help from the northern
California, division of the
American Jewish Congress.
There are estimated to be
more than 200 Iranian
Jewish students and vis-
itors in the Bay area.
The division has ar-
ranged meetings with
Iranian-Jews in the Bay
area and also has sought to
acquaint them with com-
munity facilities, including
the Jewish Family Service,
Jewish Vocational Service
and Mount Zion Hospital.
said he would favor the pro-
posal that half the aid be
made over as a grant and
the other half as a loan, at
nine percent interest over
30 years.
Under the present terms,
only $800 million of the $3
billion aid package would be
in the form of a grant.
Strauss and Israeli Com-
merce Minister Gideon
Patt, meanwhile, signed a
trade agreement providing
for reduction of tariffs and
encouragement of trade
through other means.
Aliya, Drop Outs Increasing
-
JERUSALEM (JTA) —
Aliya figures for March
showed a continued upsw-
ing in relation to last year.
The total was 2,992 com-
pared to 1,988 in March
1978, an increase of about
55 percent. Most of the rise
is attributable to the in-
creased numbers of Jews
leaving the Soviet Union,
and some 400 Iranian Jews
visiting Israel who decided
in March to change their
status to immigrant or tem-
porary4resident.
But "neshira" (drop-out)
figures are rising, too. The
rate in March was nearly 70
percent. Of the 3,137 Jews
who left the Soviet Union
last month, only 1,283 went
to Israel.
Leading U.S. Jewish
sources told the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency that
there would be renewed in-
tensive discussions within
the American Jewish com-
munity leadership on the
whole issue of neshira.
The Jewish leaders
have undertaken to seek
a consensus among their

The Jewish Agency's
Immigration Department
reported that there were
presently some 146,000 exit
requests pending, a higher
figure than at any previous
time.
The department recently
sent eight Soviet olim as
emissaries to Vienna,
where they spent two days
with the emigrants talking
to them about life and op-
portunities in Israel. The
emissaries had undergone

Will Not Push
Oil Sale to Israel
WASHINGTON (JTA) —
The governments of Nor-
way and Great Britain,
which share oil from the
North Sea fields, will not
ask the controlling petro-
leum companies to sell any
of it to Israel, the embassies
of the two countries made
clear to the Jewish Tele-
graphic Agency.
Inquiries by the JTA fol-
lowed reports from Oslo
after Vice President Walter
Mondale spoke there last
week.
The Norwegian govern-
ment has ruled that the
North Sea oil is in the hands
of private firms and the
government will not inter-
vene in its distribution.
Earlier, the British gov-
ernment took a similar posi-
tion.,
