Send full resume to: Norbert J. Slovis P.O. Box 1670 Knoxville, Tennessee 37901 U. S. A. World Zionist Press Service About 9,000 Arabs and 27,000 Jews live together harmoniously in Acre. This historic, picturesque little port-city, just eight miles from Haifa along the Mediterranean coast, has long been a tourist attrac- tion in Israel. One hardly notices that in the main shouk, the Arab style market, Jews and Arabs work side by side — one stand owned by Jews, the other by Arabs. When. closing time comes, each helps the other clean up. It's difficult to tell who works for whom in Acre, as Jews and _Arabs also werk for each other. Acre has a new and old , city. The old city is a mix- ture of Moslem and Chris- tian Arabs living in rustic old stone and plaster homes, much like the casbahs the world over. The old city is along the waterfront, as is the restaurant Abu Christo. Away from the waterfront, past the old city, is the newer section. There, Jews have been living since 1948, in de- velopment housing (shikunim) rising on stilts from,the ground in pastel colored walls. The early shikunim were put up so quickly and cheaply that now, over 30 years later, they are some- times semi-slums. Later building is of a-much higher standard. Along the main commercial drag which runs perpendicular to the shore, the streets are clog- ged- with people, both Arab and Jew. • We cannot help but notice the signs for the Jewish de- ntists and jewelers and watchmakers. Almost every store advertises both in He- brew and Arabic.
