Erosion by mixed marriage
Gloomy future in Argentina
BUENOS AIRES (JCNS)-
Argentina's Jewish population of a;pproximately475,-000 - the largest in Latin America - is undergoing a continuous process of erosion as a result of mixed marriages.
- The Central Council of
Religious Communities (Vaad HaKehiloth) meeting here last week; received glooijfiy reports of the state of Jewish communities oiitside Buenos Aires. Provincial delegates. said that mixed marriages are the rule and not the exception.
PARIS (JTA) -
French Interior Minister Raymond Marcellin has promised here to "act with extreme severity" against the resurgence of racism and anti-Semitism in France.
The minister made the statement following a meeting with Jean Pierre-Bloch, president of the International League Against Racism and Anti-Semitism (LICA). Pierre-BIoch, who requested the meeting, also represented the , Representative Council of Jewish Institutions in France (CRIJ).
mmister
The LICA president discussed in particular the anti-Semitic incidents which occurred last month in the French Riviera towns of An-tibes and Juan-les-Pins. At that time, Jewish vacationers were attacked by assailants armed with bicycle chains, sticks, and iron bars. Police did not intervene.
A few days earlier, 30 French mayors told the LICA they had received mimeographed letters expressing violent anti-Semitism. The town of Antibes has a permanent Jewish community of 450 families.
In the city of Resistencia, the capital of Chaco province, it was reported that the president of the provincial supreme court and one of its members afe both baptized Jews, rln one small Jewish commi^Jiity in a northeastern province, the_. president of the community is married to a Catholic and his two sons have been baptized. The council heard that as Jewish communities shrank in size the numbers of mixed marriagesand conversions increased.
The majority of the younger generation in provincial communities were alienated from Jewish life and Zion-
ism. Even where there was sympathy for Israel, this proved top weak a link with Judaism. There was a shortage of rabbis, teachers and a consequent dilutlonof Jewish life, the attraction of values inculcated in the universities was adding to the ei^ion of Jewish life.
One hopeful sign reported was that some Jewish families, fearful for their children's future, were either moving to larger Jewish communities or contemplating emigration to Israel.

JERUSALEM (JTA) -
The Jewish National Fund, in co-operation with the Jewish Agency and the ministry of housing has launched a three-year, $80 million project aimed at rescuing 42 Jerusalem Corridor settlements from stagnation and poverty, it was disclosed last week. The settlements were all founded in the early '50s, shortly after Israel's war of independence, when defence requirements and the need to rapidly popula:te thie western approaches to Jerusalem were given priority over problems of long term developinent.
The Jerusalem Corridor was so named because it served as the main artery supplying beleaguered Jerusalem during the 1948 war. Until the Six Day War it was a narrow strip heminedinby the Jordanian-occupied West Bank.
The hasty nature of the settlement of the region resulted in poor housing, poor roads and the lack of a prop-_ er infrastructure for the'
chain of settlements. The terrain, moreover, is hilly, rocky and largely non-arable. The land is suitable only for poultry raising which becan^e the mainsfeiy of the region's economy!
But even that has proven insufficient. A visit to many of the moshavim (small holders settlennents) in the corridor discloses small, ramshackle chicken coops of rusted wire and rotting boards leanihg . against cramped, deteriorating one and two-room houses;
More flights accord near
JERUSALEM (JCNS)-
Israel and West Germany have agreed in the first phase of negotiations to increase the number of flights, between the two countries. As from next summer both El Al and Lufthansa will have eight weekly flights instead of SIX, as at present, to cities m Germany and Lod respectively.
Each family possesses about .a half acre of land which is insufficient to generate an adequate income,
