The decision to concentrate major efforts of the Women’s American ORT during the coming year on expanding the organization’s vocational training facilities in France and Israel was announced here today by Mrs. M. Rosenberg, national president of the women’s group.
Addressing the organization’s national board conference here, Mrs. Rosenberg pointed out that major Jewish population shifts had put increasing pressure on ORT networks in the two countries, “We are compelled by the demand for admission to our schools to expand everywhere, but tidal wave immigration to France and Israel means that we will focus much of our attention on these two countries during the coming year,” Mrs, Rosenberg declared.
