TORONTO (JTA) — The
Yiddish weekly in Win-
nipeg, "Dos Yiddishe Vort,"
which was alternately
known as the "Yiddish
Press" and before that as
the "Israelite Press," has
ceased publication after 70
years.
A spokesman for the
weekly said that although
Winnipeg still has a reputa-
tion as ,a stronghold of Yid-
dish, the paper had run out
of readers, revenue and
support. It was losing
$2,000 a month and had
only 1,600 subscribers.
The spokesman said the
only other Yiddish new
paper in Canada, ti _
"Eagle" in Montreal, re-
ceives support from the
Quebec government.

10 Jews Win in S. Africa
JOHANNESBURG
(JTA) — Last month's gen-
eral election in South Africa
confirmed that there is no
"Jewish vote" in this coun-
try. While the 10 successful
Jewish candidates for Par-
liament and the provincial
councils are all members of
the Progressive Federal
Party, the liberal opposi-
tion, Jewish candidates ran
on other tickets as well.
Of the 20 Jews nominated
for office, the governing
rightwing National Party
headed by Prime Minister
P.W. Botha fielded two
Jewish candidates and
others ran on the even more
conservative New Republic
Party ticket. The National
Party, which has governed
South Africa since 1948;
won the election.
Except for several ill-
chosen remarks by the far
right Hersigte Nationale
Party, the campaign was
singularly free of Jewish is-
sues or angles. The close
and cordial relationship be-
tween South Africa and Is-
rael was endorsed by all
major factions and was not
an issue.
The Jewish candidates
elected to Parliament are:
Harry Schwartz, Alf Wid-
Yiddish Weekly
in Canada Closes
man, Maj. Reuben Sive and
Helen Suzman. Mrs. Suz-
man was for many years the
only Progressive Federal
Party member of Parlia-
ment.
