Problems confronting Hungarian Jewish refugees, Egyptian Jewish exiles and posed by new productivity demands in Israel were discussed here last night at the opening of a three-day meeting of the executive committee of the World ORT Union.
Egyptian Jews now scattered in many lands will, for the most part, have to be retrained if they are to take up new occupations and new lives. A problem of similar dimensions seems to have shaped up in reference to the Hungarian Jews in Austria. Many refugees in Austria have already been admitted to ORT courses which were being offered when they arrived in that country and new training un is are being considered, it was reported at the parley. Representatives from ORT federations in the United States, Israel and various countries of Europe and North Africa are attending the executive committee session.
