22 Friday, July 9, 1982 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Number of Jewish Students Wallenberg Road TORONTO (JTA) — Reported Dropping in USSR Raoul Wallenberg, credited LONDON (JTA) — The number of Jewish students at Moscow's institutions of higher education is roughly half what it was 10 years ago, says a report by the In- stitute of Jewish Affairs (IJA), research arm of the World Jewish Congress. Analyzing the figures, Dr. Lukas Hirszowicz, senior research officer, says that although demographic decline and the age structure of Soviet Jewry partly explain the fall, the figures "certainly provide statistical evidence that discrimination is also a cause." The fall in numbers paralleled the decline of the Soviet Jewish student popu- lation as a whole. Hirszowicz estimates the 1980 figure for all USSR Jewish students at 50- 55,000, compared with al- most 112,000 in 1968-1969. The Soviet Jewish population declined by 15.8 percent and by 13.2 percent in the Russian Federated Soviet Republic Socialist (RSFSR), which includes Moscow, in the period be- tween the census of 1970 and 1979. But in what the IJA calls a roughly comparable period, Moscow Jewish stu- dents declined by almost 41 percent, "about three times Better-Than-Ever Sidewalk Sale! Fri.-Sat.-Sun.

The Austrian Jewish Museum opened with a large exhibition called "1,000 years of Austrian Jewry." The museum, which was opened by Hertha Firnberg, Austrian minister for science and research, came into existence through active lobbying by the Associa- tion for the Jewish Aust- rian Museum, a group closely linked with the institute for Judaic Studies at the University of Vienna. Located within the old Jewish ghetto of Eisenstadt, capital of Burgenland prov- ince, the museum was fi- nanced by the Austrian government and by the country's nine provinces. Visa Rejected TEL AVIV — Lebanon's Christian militia leader Saad Haddad has been re- fused a visa for a visit to the U.S., according to an Israel military official. The U.S. State Depart- ment rejected Haddad's re- quest on the grounds that he did not represent any rec- ognized political authority in Lebanon, the Israeli offi- cial said. the decline of the general Soviet Jewish population." On the other hand, the number of Jews in specialist education did not decline in the 1970s at the same rate as those in higher educa- tion. Finally the report shows that in the USSR as a whole, the Jews were the only na- tionality other than the Georgians to suffer an abso- lute decline in the number of students in higher educa- tion. In Geneva the Inter- governmental Committee for Migration reported that a total of 182 Jews left the Soviet Union dur- ing the month of June, of whom 58 went to Israel. It also was learned that Ida Nudel, the Jewish emig- ration activist who returned to Moscow recently after serving a four year sentence of internal exile in Siberia, moved to Riga, the Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry and the Union of Councils for Soviet Jews reported. Nudel, who owns a flat in a Moscow cooperative, indi- cated she was not making the move voluntarily. with saving more than 20,000 Jews in Hungary during World War II, was honored when the city of North York named a road in his honor.
