more and more young American
Jews rediscover the language of
their parents and grandparents,
and courses on Yiddish are being
offered by a growing number and
variety of educational institu-
tions.
Lansky said the new catalogue,
which is limited to fiction, include
works by Sholem Aleichem, Y.L.
Peretz, Itzik Manger, Chaim
Grade and Isaac Bashevis Singer.
He said the books are sold at nom-
inal cost and the payments are
used to finance the ongoing pro-
gram of cataloging and distribu-
tion. Although all titles in the
catalogue are in Yiddish, the
catalogue itself has been prepared
in English transliteration, an ar-
rangement, he said, which
facilitates selection by librarians,
many of whom are unfamiliar
with the Hebrew-Yiddish al
phabet.
Lansky announced plans for a
series of general and specialized
listings planned- for the next sev-
eral years. He said subsequent
catlogues will offer titles of Yid-
dish books at the center in many
subject areas, such as history,
Yiddish theater and the
Holocaust.

Sephardi Jews
lagging in jobs

Jerusalem (ZINZ) — A survey
conducted by Dr. Yaakov Nahon
shows that Ashkenazim in Israel
have better jobs and earn more
than the Sephardic Jews.
The average wage of the orien-
tal Jews is 20 percent below that
paid to workers whose origins are
in Western countries. In certain
aras, the variance in earnings is
as high as 45 percent.
In another section of the study,
it is shown that 21 percent of all
marriages in Israel are "mixed"
meaning that one of the spouses
comes from an Ashkenazic back-
ground and the other from
Sephardic. In the kibbutzim,
where only 15 percent of the
membership is composed of
Sephardim, the ratio of these
"mixed" marriages is- as high as
46 percent.

Prof. ordered
to serve time

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Prof. Daniel
Amit, chairman of the Hebrew
University's Institute for Applied
Physics and vice chairman of the
Israel Human Rights Association,
has been sentenced to 14 days in a
military prison for refusing to
serve with his army unit in Leba-
non.
The Association Sunday dis-
associated itself from Amit's ac-
tion, saying that the organization,
while working to preserve human
rights, did not think the indi-
vidual could decide for himself
where to serve in the army, as this
was the prerogative of the gov-
ernment. A soldier was only
entitled to disobey an order which
was •dearly illegal, the Associa-
tion said.
