The essential purpose of ORT world-wide, according to the national executive director of Women's Canadian ORT. is to teach people a profession which they can take with them to any country in the world. "We afford the underprivileged the ability to earn and not to have to ask for handouts.**
Diane Uslaner made special mention during a recent interview with The Bulletin of the teacher-training school near Geneva. Switzerland where the unique ORT methodology is imparted. She indicated that a large proportion of the students there come from Third World countries demonstrating the universal application of the ORT philosophy.
The membership of ORT Canada is "committed to support the efforts and projects of the organization in Israel." Though a large portion of the funds raised are placed in a general projects pooh there are a few concerns for which moneys are earmarked, the director, for the past four years/ disclosed.
The Bat Yam Girls* school near Tel Aviv where young women are taught al! the necessary skills to enter into the fashion industry and the tank repair school in the depressed area of Holon are two projects which sprang to Uslaner*s mind.
She outlined that most of the Israeli army's mechanics are graduates of ORT schools.
In an environment that encourages both academic and vocational competence, skills such as guitar-making and hairdressing among many others are taught, she said.
The national executive director underscored that a great deal of thought is being given to Canad-ianize the content of ORT-Cftnada activities. She submitted that a whole series of regional conferences on technology are being organized by the various branches of the group.
The hope is that resource^people from the communities in question can be brought in to discuss plans, interests and understanding of the particular problems that faced by the region, Uslaner detailed.
One topic that she is sure will be covered extensively is trials faced by women in technology.
ORT is involved on a consultative basis with the federal government and at present there Is a study as to whether or not a school, following the organization's precepts.

would be feasible. Apparently ORT owns some property in Ontario and Quebec which would be ideal for this purpose. However, Uslaner does not consider this to be a major priority of the group.
The national director was in town to conduct several leadership seminars, and to consolidate and coordinate efforts in the Vancouver area. She. was particularly enthusiastic about an upcoming casino night at the Commodore Ballroom and a future fashion show.
Diane Uslaner was bom in Paris, brought up in New York, and has lived in Toronto for the past six years.
