THE JEWISH FRES9
Many Lawyers By CARL ALPERT Haifa—In stirring words the prophet Isaiah forecast the future when "Out of Zion shall go forth the law . . ." Already in our time we have reached a stage in Israel where there is enough law, and certainly too many lawyers. The country's law schools continue to spew out graduates into what is sometimes called the Jewish profession, and the total of practicing lawyers in Israel is jalready in excess of 5,000. This means that there is one lawyer for every COO Israelis—compared, for example, with France, where there is one lawyer for every 7,000 Frenchmen! In other terms, there is in Israel one law student for every 1,500 Israelis, as compared to the U.S. where Alpcrt there is one law student for every 4,000-Americans. Maybe we are a litigatious people, but there ought to be a limit. The population explosion hi the legal profession shows no sign of diminishing. The Bar Association says that in the next three years 3,000 more lawyers will be added to the Israel total, constituting a 40 per cent increase. Originally there had been one law school— at the University in Jerusalem. Then another was added to Tel Aviv University. And when Bar Han University announced a couple of years- ago that it was opening Israel's third law school, the groan that went up could be heard from the Golan Heights to Sharm-eSheikh. Yet'word has it that Haifa University .is now also going to spend good money to open Israel's fourth law school! • There might be some justification for this multiplication of lawyers if they were all making a half-way decent living. Every survey of
the profession shows exactly the contrary to be true. Only the top 10 per cent of Israel's lawyers are doing well. Seventy per cent earn only up to about $75 a week, and the remaining 20 per cent cam less. Furthermore, the Bar Association records about 500 lawyers who are so hard up that they need subsistence loans to keep tbeir offices open. There are no p're-law studies in Israel, The young man goes straight from high school, or from the army, into law school. He studies for four years, and then serves two years as an apprentice clerk, though it is common practice for many'to do their last year of study and their first year of apprenticeship simultaneously. There may be a great deal of legal business, but a few big firms have a virtual-mo nopoly. The government farms out. most of its law work, and 5 per cent of the country's lawyers get 95 per cent of the government business. •.,'.. .-::""• ^ •:•••>•:::<; In general, it should be noted that 60 per cent of Israel's lawyers are in private practice, and 40 per cent are employed by government or industry. .•>,-, During the past year there have been urgent consultations between the heads of the Bar Association and the Deans of the law schools-to see what can be done to cut down on the number of lawyers graduated each year. - • • • • • • Immigrants to Israel also include some lawyers. A few manage to make the adjustment, ; By Dan Rcnn despite language and other difficulties, and are Editor's note: Following a discussion of the Nazi Holocaust, accepted at the Bar.

Omaha Organizations By MRS. MORRIS C. FELLMAN Tuesday was a LOVE-ly day . . . the kind of day that made the HOME residents anxious to get out in the spring sunshine. And while they enjoyed the warmth and the burst of spring, they also enjoyed the delightful poika music of the AlPPERSPACH German Poika band, composed of nine students from Benson and North High schools. EVERYBODY turned out for the concert, including a number of the hospital patients in their wheelchairs. A few residents even danced polkas with LOVE volunteers. And you can well imagine the surprised reaction of the Residents to hearing 1'Hatikvah" played by the German Polka Band in honor of their Jewish audience! To show their appreciation for the thrilling concert-in-theopen, the kitchen staff-quickly prepared Hawaiian punch to serve band members. The coming of spring also means it Is possible for many other outdoor activities to take place at the HOME . . . like the Exercise class. The participants walk up the slight incline behind the patio to look at the beautiful fruit trees in full bloom— they were accompanied Monday by LOVE volunteer Lillian Warren, Two residents went shopping wifh Ruth Goldstein, LOVE volunteer, to the Crossroads . . . seven residents were pleased to attend the lecture at Beth Tsrael last Thursday night by Israeli Col. Narkiss—they were "car-pooled" by LOVE volunteers Ann and Iz Levinson and Mort Glass. ;
Visitors coming into the Home for the first time in a few weeks are delighted to see the progress being made on the total redecoration of the main dining room . . . nnd the auditorium and aricraft rooms now filled with tables and chairs on a temporary basis. Other welcome changes will be the refurbishing of the lawn and landscaping which is being planned by the HOME committee to make the grounds much more attractive.
LOVE went on the air last Friday morning when Chairman Miriam Simon was guest of "Camera on Mid-America" at KETV. George Thompson, host of the COMA show, was so Interested in knowing more about this new volunteer program in the Jewish Federation that he asked Miriam to come back again and bring gome residents with her also. Yesterday the work of many of our own Senior Citizens at the Home was on display at the Senior Citizen's Hobby Show at Lucas Hall. Shown were sketches by Sylvan Block, paintings and charcoal drawings by Aaron Korney, handicraft items from the Thursday Arts and Crafts class.....;. and some of the colorful and beautifully made bows and ties created by Mrs. Mildred Fogcl. You'll be pleased to know that 67 of the 70 residents were examined recently to review their level of dental health care. Of the 67 examined, only one showed a suspicious lesion which will be followed mp with the utilization of the Oral Pathology Department at Creighton University. The results of this examination arc very gratifying in terms of better dental health for our residents. Once a month, a beautiful arrangement of fresh flowers, courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Jack E. Cohn, are beipg delivered to the Home. Jack was the high bidder for the flowers on the recent Heart Auction on WOW television. Flowers for the Seder tables were also a gift of the Conns. A "special occasion" many residents are looking forward to Is scheduled for May 3 when transportation will be provided to see the colorful musical "Fiddler on the Roof." Local persons who have been wanting to see this show but do not care to go alone may join the HOME group. Just call Adrlenne Goldberg, HOME Recreational Director, at 451-7241 and make your reservations. Tickets are $3.50 each.

They were in a border kibbutz, so they knew they needed shelters. Someplace where the children would be a bit safer at night. After the first terrorist attacks, they knew also that their shelters did not offer enough protection, so they dug deeper. They reinforced and enlarged the shelters to make them more secure. All the people of Israel are digging deeper into their physical strength; Into their emotional resources. Into their pockets. They are the most heavily taxed people in the world, 80 per cent of their tax revenue goes to pay the cost of security. We. too, must dig deeper if we are to fulfill our responsibilities to the 50,000 newjmmigrants who will arrive this year. • We must provide them with language instruction and vocationahraining.
