Orthodox Role
In Federations
Urged By Rabbi
Spring Glen, N.Y. (JTA) — The
president of the Rabbinical Coun-
cil of America, Rabbi Louis Berns-
tein, called on Orthodox Jews
throughout the U.-S. to become
more involved in local federations
and the national United Jewish
Appeal.
Speaking at his organization's
mid-winter conference at the
Homewack Lodge, Bernstein told
the more than 200 rabbis from
throughout the nation, that they
and their congregants should be-
come more active in UJA and
local federations because the lat-
ter has become increasingly in-
volved in religious issues.
He cited the role of the UJA, the
Jewish Agency and the United Is-
rael Appeal in supporting Con-
servative and Reform movements
which fought the proposed Or-
thodox changes in the Law of Re-
turn.
Calling for active involvement
of Orthodox Jews in federations,
Bernstein said Orthodox Jews
must attempt to obtain more
funds for Jewish education.
Divorce Rate Up
Haifa — The incidence of di-
vorce in Israel is growing and has
reached the level of 1.3 divorces
per 1000 citizens, it was recently
revealed at a University of Haifa
symposium about divorce and
children by Nitza Ben-Dor, a lec-
turer at the university's Tel Hai
branch.
Ben-Dor's research shows this
level to be a threefold increase in
the number of single-parent
families in Israel. Today there are
12,000 such families in Israel.
