Rabbi Yehezkiel Jakobowitz of Sholtvarkert, a recent member of the Rabbis Committee of Budapest, arrived here today with his family to settle in Israel. Rabbi Jakobowitz said that the yeshivoth in Hungary were recently closed because the bulk of their students had fled the country during and after the rebellion.
