GRANT I The Detroit Soviet Jewry Committee was the first of the argricul- tural settlements estab- lished by the turn-of-the- century European Jewish philanthropist Baron Maurice (Moses) Hirsch. Situated in Santa Fe province, some 375 miles from Buenos Aires, Moises- ville is no longer the entirely Jewish township it was 20 or 30 years ago. But there are still nearly 1,000 Jews (some 30 percent of the present population). Most of the Jewish families own small cattle farms in the area. All the children attend the Yahadut school and many go on to the teachers' seminar that functions in the school building in the afternoon. (The seminar, founded in the 1950s by local educator Yosef Drez- nin, takes in students from other Jewish communities, too, who board in Moises- ville during the school term.) The teachers, mostly young women who live in Moisesville and whose husbands farm in the area, are all fluent in He- brew and some speak a fine literary Yiddish, too. Why do they choose to stay in this small and re- mote village? Says Chava Gelbert-Rosenthal, long- time teacher at the seminar and mother of three, "There is no better place to bring up children." Her son and two daughters love the outdoor life. "Ariel is a gaucho in spirit," Chava says of her nine-year-old flaxen-haired son Arye whose pride and joy is his chestnut mare. Many young people from Moisesville moved to Israel over the years, some of them settling on kibutzim and moshavim there. Many others moved offto Cordoba, Rosario or Buenos Aires, in search of university educa- tion and broader oppor- tunities. Those who remain, Chava stresses, do so "be- cause we like the life." of the Jewish Community Council presents The Third Annual Freedom Concert for Soviet Jewry In Memory of Al M.
