Yiddish Makes The Giade
Since it is larger than the Jewish population of the State of Israel, amounting to about one third Of the ap proximately 8,000,000 inhabitants of New York Citj (comprising the five boroughs of Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Qu.-ehs and Richmond). New Yorlt Jewry commands a position of importance and influence which is even more imposing than its relative numerical representation.
There are several reasons for this pre-eminence. First of all, thanks to the singulai dynamics of Jewish social mobility, New York Jewry is solidly middle-class, with a fast-growing phalanx of re presentative numbers push-j ing ahead into the upper middle-class and capitalist strata. To be sure, there are still pockets of working-class, immigrant Jews in the metropolis, but their children, like those Of earlier waves of Jewish immigration have made, or are about to make, the transition into business and the professions.
New York Jews are exce edingly "visible" because they make up half of the city's White population. According to the 1964 edition of the "Statistical Guide for New York City", in 1960, out of 7,781,984 New Yorkers, 1,116,451 were non-White ajid 612,674 were Puerto Ricans. Although New York is the least "prejudiced" of all U.S. cities and offers the best opportunities to Negroes and Puerto Ricans, comparative occupational statistics in the "Guide" show that New York's non Whites are mostly unskilled or semi-skilled factory hands or in similar ill-paid occupations. As Jews tend to "out-diploma" and "out-ambition" other foreign-born and first-generation populations of European origin, it is hardly surprising that New York is frequently dubbed "Jew York".
In 1960, New York had a total foreign-born population of 1,558,960 — not counting the Puerto Ricans who although Spanish-speaking are American citizens. Yiddish was given as their mother tongue by 254^262 of foreign-bom New Yorkers. Next to Italian, the mother tongue of 275,697 New Yorkers, Yiddish comes second among the 24 listed and many other unlisted non-English languages which are the mother tongues of people living in New York.
In the literary and intellectual field, Yiddish is in a class by itself. Thanks to the Broadway success of Sholem Aleichem and the unique respect in which I. Bashevis Singer is held by the ///erian and' intellectuals, Yiddish has sudde:nly been "discovered" —- even by those who for many years black-balled Yiddish writing and writers. An example of the new popularity of Yiddish among New York intellectuals is provided by the Poetry Centre of the New York 92nd Street "Y'* which has included readings of Yiddish poets and writers among its attractions for the past two seasons.
Jewish hospitals serving predominantly non - Jewish patients constitute a thorny problem for the New York Federation of Jewish Charities. Mount Sinai Hospital seems to have found a solution by providing for. the establishment of a medical school attacheid to the hospital, which is considered among the best in the United States. Present plans call for the raising of |55 million for a 23-storey building to house the medical college,, which is due to open in the autuinn of 1968. It will train 100 doctors a year, and the furst of them will gi-aduate in 1972, It has been calculated that the U.S. will need to replenish her medical profession with 2,000 new doctors a year. Medicine and law have tended to lose ground to science in popularity, and there is much conicem in
Arnerican   medical circles about providing for the fu". ture health needs of ^ this grovying iiation. j Mount Sinai Medical Col-
lege will be the second new medical school in New York to be established since 1900. The other is Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein Medical College, which is how celebrating its tenth anniversary. Starting with a student body of 56 and a faculty of six, the college now has 950 physicians and scientists, both full — and part-time, teaching 384 med-
,ical students and 125 graduates engaged in special rei-search projects. The Bronx Municipal Hbspital Centre, with 1,500 beds, is entirely staffed by Einstein Medical College doctors, and the students serve in various ca.piac-ities and "learning experiences" in this major clinical teaching and research centre
i whose budget is covered by
i New York City.

AMBASSAPOR MANOR
An unusual. Jewish club was founded last year in the city of Toronto. No initiation fee is demanded; there
is no exclusive- membership hst; nor are lavish premises to be seen. The only requirement istipiilated is a personal determination to lead the way in Toronto's Israel Bond Campaign: for this program can only be carried out by maintaining the high level of purchases that has given Toronto its enviable reputation as a key city for the sale of Israel Bonds.

letters to the editor
lAUDS WOJHEN'S FEDERATION
Dear Editor:
The Federation of Jewish Women's organization is to be congratulated for it's splendid service rendered the cause of Judaism.
The organization demonstrated deep regard for it's orthodo.x members by sen'ing a kosher luncheon on it's Social Awareness Day. It brought to light the organizadon's worldliness and loyalty to it's own vineyard.
The precept of kashrut, like all
the commandments of the To-rah, apply to all Jews regardless of affiliation. Our great Rabbis have singled out the dietan,' 'aws in particular as a chief preser\-er of the Jew's identity throughout the ages, by being a great deterrent to assimilation and intermarriage.
But  ye  that cleave unto the; Lord your God are alive, even, one of you, this day. (Deuteronomy 4, 4).
