THE QUALITY OF LIFE

There is surely not a single person who woulddisagree about the importance of the quality oflife in Israel. Many, in fact, are quite vocal in theircriticism of the aspect that they regard to be mostsadly lacking. The difficulty arises in transformingdissatisfaction, whether covert or overt, into pract i c a l a c t i o n .

There can be no doubt but that every residentsufficiently and positively motivated can contributeto the quality of life in Israel end certainly the

English-speaking citizen is no exception to thisr u l e .

ENCOURAGEMENT FOR AL IYAH

Dear Sir,I have just completed the Al iyah Research Project

ques t ionna i re . I am a l l f o r encourag ing a l i yah toIsrael by whatever means we a l l might t ry, and Iwould like to add my thoughts on this.I feel that by asking ex>South Afr icans what theirmot ivat ions were for coming here is fine in i tse l f ,b u t n o t e n o u g h . We n e e d t o f o l l o w t h i s l i n e o fthought by asking how come we al l stayed.Two months ago, I had the opportunity of chatt ingw i t h a g r o u p o f S o u t h A f r i c a n h i g h s c h o o l k i d s ,here on a 3-month study course. The questions theyasked were not only intel l igent, but very pert inent.They wanted to know how we manage here botheconomica l l y and soc ia l l y. Th i s seemed to wo r r ythem most: integration and finances.I also had the opportunity of speaking to SouthAfricans, not only whilst I was there last year, buta l s o t o t o u r i s t s h e r e . T h e y w e r e a l s o a t a l o s st o u n d e r s t a n d h o w p e o p l e u s e d t o t h e S o u t hA f r i c a n w a y o f l i f e a r e a b l e t o m a n a g e t o l i v ehappily in Israel.W h a t w e n e e d , p e r h a p s , i s a m i s s i o n o f y o u n gSou th A f r i cans , on the same l i nes as the recen tU J A " K o a c h M i s s i o n " f r o m t h e S t a t e s . A n i mportant part of their schedule would be hostingthese visitors in our homes and a chat on a pers o n a l b a s i s .

1 a lso bel ieve that more ex-South Afr icans shouldgo to S. Africa to meet families there on a personal basis and have informal chats with them,

i would be interested to know how your recentprogramme on this fares. In any event, I certainlyhope that all your efforts bear fruit. We certainlyneed as many olim as we can encourage to come.

BOUQUETS FOR RUGBY SPECTATORS . . .G O O D M A N N E R S

Dear Sir,

We went to the Ramat Gan Stadium to watch thefirst rugby match between South Afr ica and Israel.An interest ing aspect of th is match was the audience, in the main South African settlers, a scatter

Our side proved to be as rough, tough and cunninga s t h e S o u t h A f r i c a n s . T h e fi n a l s c o r e s h o w e dthat we were competing against an opposition teamof rugby players who are amongst the best In theworld. The local team managed to throw one member of the visiting team out of the game. The onlyserious injury to our side was its pride!

As the South African and Rhodesian population inIsrael increases in number the work of the Federation office correspon,dingly increases in tempo. TheFederation is jealous of its reputation as an outs t a n d i n g e x a m p l e o f Z i o n i s t e n d e a v o u r, b o t h i nIsrael and in the Diaspora. In order to maintain itshigh standard of service, the Federation in Israel,through its Israel Council — on which serve Chairmen of Regional Social Integration Committeesfrom all over the country — ensures that S. Africans living anywhere in Israel can be given serviceand information from their local representative aswell as directly from the offices in Tel Aviv, Jerus a l e m a n d H a i f a .On February 24, members of the Israel Council fromas far afield as Beersheva, Kibbutz Yizreel, MoshavShadmot Dvora, Netanya and most of the Tel Aviva rea Reg iona l Commi t tees , b raved the co ld w indand rain to at tend an Israel Counci l Meet ing. TheAgenda included reports by the Federat ion's Chairman and by Chairmen of the Regional Committeespresen t ; a repor t on the A l i yah Research Pro jec tand on Koach Kan . However, d i scuss ion touchedon most aspects, including the present situation inS. Africa, the Rotating Shiichim Scheme, the worko f t he Fede ra t i on O ffices i n Sou th A f r i ca and i nIsrael, especially in regard to the particular circumstances obtaining in both countries today.The Rotating Shiichim Scheme, an experiment tobegin with, had proved most successful. Duringthe 6 months that Leib Frank spent in South Africa,he was instrumental in forming an Aliyah Counciland in revitalising the Aliyah Department and itswork in S. Africa. Reports received from Itz Stein,presently in South Africa on the Rotating ShiichimScheme, show that the tempo of the Aliyah Department seems to have stepped up.The meeting welcomed this report and it wasunanimously felt that the experiment for Short-Term Shiichim, which had been suspended pro tern,should be resumed with all possible speed. It wasevident that there is a need in 8. Africa at thistime for accurate and up-to-the-minute informationon conditions here, and that this information can besupplied only by S. Africans living in Israel.The meeting was not shy to criticise where it wasfelt that constructive criticism could be helpful.The thorny problem of yordim — both S. Africansand Israelis — was discussed. Whether yordimshould be drawn Into the orbit of Zionist activities,

Goodlooking, in uniform or in "civvies", DouglasDotan is an o fficer in the Is rae l Defence Forces.P l e a s a n t t o t a l k t o , D o u g l a s t o l d o f t h e s t r o n gsense of danger he felt for Israel when, beforethe 6-Day War. he became a member o f a groupo f 5 1 v o l u n t e e r s f r o m S o u t h A f r i c a a n d R h o d e s i a

" We w e r e m e m b e r s o f a h i g h l y m ot ivated group of volunteers: al l of us had decidedlong before that we had a job to do in Israel. Andso we came, and, as far as I know, many of the 51o f u s h a v e s e t t l e d h e r e . "

Doug las Dotan, born Doug las Cowan in Por t E l izabe th , wen t w i th h i s pa ren ts i n 1949 to l i ve i nSalisbury, Rhodesia, when he was 4 years of age.T h e r e h e g r e w u p , w e n t t o s c h o o l . J o i n e d t h eBetar Youth Movement and generally enjoyed life.Though he did not grow up In a religious atmosphere, through the influence of his parents heb e c a m e s t e e p e d i n a d e e p l o v e o f t h e J e w i s hpeople and learned that there could be no meaningto l i fe without strong ethics and high morals.

During his last years at school, Douglas was certa in that whatever he dec ided to do wi th h is l i fe

would be built around a future in Israel. His Involvement with Betar took up much of his timeand strengthened his determination to go on aliyah.His position in the Movement rose and he becamea madrich. And so it came as no surprise to allwho knew him that he was selected to be one ofthe participants in the Course for Youth Leadersfrom Abroad held in Jerusalem in 1964.After a meaningful year in Israel, Douglas returnedto South Africa to open and run the Betar officesin Cape Town, all the while marking time untilthe day of his aliyah.

During the fateful 6-Day War, Douglas was sentwith other Betarim to a moshav and then spenttwo months at Kibbutz Dafna. By this time hismind was irrevocably made up so he changed hisstatus and set t led in Israel .

Having achieved the greatest ambition of his life,Douglas now turned his thoughts to serving hiscountry and joined the Israel Army, eventuallyattaining the rank of officer. Douglas knew that hewould not make the grade as a citizen of Israelnor become an integral part of the country withouta sound knowledge of Hebrew. With his characteri s t i c d e t e r m i n a t i o n , h e b u r i e d h i s h e a d i n h i sHebrew books, mastered the language and passedh i s o f fi c e r ' s c o u r s e .

A s k e d w h e t h e r h e b e l i e v e s t h a t a s h a l i a c h c a nserve as an important link in the aliyah chainfrom the point of the first uncertain steps to thefinal "plunge", Douglas unhesitatingly said he did,"...otherwise I'd never have accepted the invitat ion to go to Cape Town as a (Be ta r ) sha l iach . . .I 'd been asked a few t imes in the past to undert a k e t h i s m i s s i o n b u t d e c l i n e d b e c a u s e I d i d n ' t

feel ready. Now I am — and I am sure that I candefini te ly do more for Israel as a shal iach at th iscr i t i ca l per iod . "

Douglas bel ieves that Israel has a strong need forwestern a l i yah . H is adv ice to po ten t ia l o l im is to"Israelise" as soon as possible but, at the samet i m e , t o r e t a i n t h e g o o d v a l u e s i n c u l c a t e d b ywestern cu l ture and he lp to In t roduce these pos it ive qualit ies into the l i fe of Israel. A deeplydedicated Zionist, Douglas is strongly convincedthat it is this belief that is of primary importancein achieving a satisfying aliyah and full integrationi n t o I s r a e l .

Douglas, of course, played his part during the YomKippur War. Reticent about himself, he related epi-

I first came to Israel ear ly in 1949 whi le the Warof Independence was st i l l be ing waged. I dec idedt h e n t h a t t h i s m u s t b e m y fi n a l h o m e . W h e ngiving a lecture on Israel in London on my exper iences, I met Ti l la , who was a lso determined onaliyah. We came to sett le with our family in 1951.W e w e r e w e l l e s t a b l i s h e d w h e n t h e S . A . Z i o n i s t

A succession of shor t - term contracts fo llowed, because we always wanted to return home,but were over-persuaded each time to remain because, we were told, local Diaspora Jewry neededu s .

So the years passed by swiftly until, to our dismay,we realised that we were growing old in theGolah. As committed Zionists, we knew this waswrong . Our p lace had to be in I s rae l , no mat te rhow important a role we were purported to bep lay ing i n Jew ish l i f e ove rseas . I f t h i s we re no tso, then where was sincerity?

w e g a v e fi n a l n o t i c e a n d b e g a n o u r p r e p a r a t i o nfor aliyah. It was a tough decision, because. In all

humility, we knew were leaving a gap. But therewere inescapable imperat ives for a l iyah.

In the desperate struggle against assimilation andt h e a t t r i t i o n o f J u d a i s m , i n w h i c h w e w e r e a l lengaged in Johannesburg, we knew we were barelyho ld ing our own, i f no t los ing ground hard ly perceptibly but surely. We no' longer felt that wew e r e c r e a t i n g a f u t u r e a n d s o o u r t a s k s b e g a nto fee l i nc reas ing ly repe t i t i ve . Wh i le a l l t h i s wasgoing on, Israel was struggl ing more and more fori t s e x i s t e n c e . S h e w a s f r i e n d l e s s , i s o l a t e d a n da lone. She was ca l l ing for Jews to jo in her. Shewas losing people by yeridah. There had to be aplace and a task for us, in return for what Israelwould give. So the will was created for aliyah,desp i te financ ia l sacr ifice, phys ica l d i fficu l t ies andemotional t rauma of part ing from dear fr iends whohad become as close and loving as near family.

We recogn ise deeper mora l and sp i r i t ua l mo t i vat ions for al iyah at this t ime. We are l iv ing at oneof the great watersheds or turning points in thehistory of mankind. One does not have to researchprofoundly into deep geo-political treatises to rea l i se th is . One need on ly g lance cursor i l y a t theheadl ines of any dai ly newspaper to be convincedof th is . Terror ism accepted as a leg i t imate meansof political action, a universal downgrading of thevalue of human l i fe, the great l ie enshrined as thea c c e p t e d c u r r e n c y o f n a t i o n a l a n d i n t e r n a t i o n a ldebate, the world-wide acquiescence in the presence of grinding poverty and starvation, side bys i d e w i t h a n o b s c e n e a f fl u e n c e , a r e b u t a f e wof the ills. As an end-product of this syndrome,one sees the necessity of the vast majority ofmank ind to tu rn on Is rae l and seek her ann ih i lat ion. Why? Because she is the hear t and soul o f

A Meet ing o f the Jerusa lem Commit tee was he ld .The speaker was Mr. Lelb Frank. Director of theIsrael Office of the Federation, who had returned afew days earlier from his tour of duty in S. Africa.He spoke about his period of shiichut and reportedon all aspects of activities.

Since the arrangement arrived at with the MoadonHaOleh, more than twenty South African olim arenow actively involved in the various chugim.The Jerusalem Committee has been dealing withseveral cases of people who require assistance,especially in finding employment.

H A I F A

The Committee continues activities in the sphereof visits to and contacts with olim, students andv o l u n t e e r s .

The connection with Kibbutz Ramat Yochanan hasbeen maintained. Apart from plans for joint socialactivities, the kibbutz has suggested that olim andvolunteers should be directed to the kibbutz whichoperates an ulpan facility. The Committee has received a favourable impression as a result of itscontacts wi th members of the k ibbutz whichshould augur well for any olim and volunteers directed to the kibbutz. Ramat Yochanan's proximityto Haifa would facilitate close contact betweensuch olim and volunteers, and the Committee.Contact is also maintained with the Klitah officeof the Municipality and a subcommittee has beenestablished in order to assist S. African olim tomake use of the services offered by the Municipa l i t y.

Committee members have addressed participants inorganized tours from South Africa. The Committeeintends to expand this activity to include informalmeetings with olim vatikim, so that visitors may

receive a deeper impression of the problems andrewards associated with everyday living in Israel.

RUGBY — A NATIONAL ISRAEL SPORT?

Report by tfie Israel Rugby Football Board

The recent rugby match between N. Transvaal andan Israel 15 may well have provided an importantbreakthrough in establishing rugby in Israel as arecognised and popular sport. Three weeks beforethe match, no venue was available, no publicityhad been undertaken, no selected team was insight and not even the basic necessities, suchas jerseys, flags and test match balls, were athand. Organisation involved intensive efforts bya small enthusiastic group. At great expensetime and money — our players came from thelength and breadth of the country. Some travelledfrom the Golan HeightsI The finding of Just onequalified coach was no easy matter, but we werefortunate in locating Dr. Ted Edelstein, of Tiberias,a former Wits coach.

At present, there are some 200 active playersspread amongst 5 clubs — one each at the universities of Jerusalem. Tel Aviv and Haifa andclubs at Kibbutz Yizreel and at Holon. Kibbutz Yiz-reel has its own field. The universities allow usthe use of their grounds provided there is no interference with other sporting activities.

Our immediate major task is the acquisition of ourown rugby field and headquarters in the Tel Avivarea. One site, amongst others, is available at theRamat Gan Stadium area through the good officesof the Ramat Gan Municipality; In all cases, nolocal funds are available to develop a field. Withthis in mind. Jack Rabin, President of the IsraelRugby Football Board, will have discussions withDr. Danie Craven in the hope of getting assistancefrom the various South African Rugby Unions.There is a crying need for coaches. Since the N.Transvaal game, many calls have been received, particularly from schools, to organise teams. A potential of players exists but there is a sad lackof playing fields, coaches, referees and administ ra tors .

A new National Rugby Board has been set upwith able and energetic administrators such asMax Miodownik, Jack Rabin, Aubrey Ginsberg, Norman Spiro, Abe Jaffe, Dr. Sid Cohen and manyothers, Various unions are being established inall parts of the country, the first already havingbeen formed in Upper Galilee under the chairmanship of Dr. Ted Edels te in .

There is no doubt that the high cost of housingmakes aliyah appear to be out of reach of theyounger people. However, the Federation's RentalHousing Scheme has become a practical and realistic project, even though rental flats will not beavailable for up to two years, all things being equal.There are plans to build in Ra'anana and to developthe South African Hostel site as well as to convertthe existing hostel building into flats. A SpecialCommittee has been established to determine eligibility criteria for rental housing and an appealwas made to members of the Council and RegionalCommittees to elicit ideas on this subject andsubmit them, as soon as possible, to the EligibilityCommittee. P.O.Box 11556, Tel Aviv 61110.Common to all participants' thinking was the need,not only to strengthen the existing framework forthe absorption of immigrants, but to consider newprojects and there was a spirit of enthusiasm andconfidence in our ability to achieve these objectives.

DOES ALIYAH BEGIN IN ISRAEL?

Which came first — the chicken or the egg...?/All my life I've been in doubt/Which was the firstone to come out.../ Thus runs the jingle of manya year ago. In another context, where does aliyahstart — in the diaspora or in Israel? In fact. Itmatters not where it starts, as long as it startssomewhere .

It is not unusual in South Africa for aliyah to betalked about at many meetings and gatherings.If seeds of aliyah are planted on these occasions,it s all to the good. And if, sooner or later, theseeds develop into full aliyah, so 'much the better.Ergo, if South African audiences in South Africaprovide a source of aliyah power, why not SouthAfrican audiences in Israel?As an experiment in this field of thinking, theSouth African Zionist Federation Israel Committeerecently exploited the presence in Israel of manySouth African visitors. At short notice — almosttoo late, since many visitors had already left thecountry — a Living Newspaper was held at theBasel Hotel Tel Aviv for visitors from South Africa.The event was widely advertised and the co-operation of tourist agencies and hotels was muchappreciated. The result far exceeded expectations.Mr. Max Miodownik was the Editor and the panelof columnists were Mrs. Valerie Whiteson, Dr.Jackie King, Mr. Harold Blumberg, Mr. Douglas Do-tan and Dr. Ian Froman. The mixture was interesting with each contributor telling the story behinda successful aliyah. The audience of some 70 people found the warmth, the humour, the idealism —in fact, all the ingredients that made up the livelynewspaper — much to their taste. Most interestingof all. perhaps, were the pertinent and seriousquestions asked by members of the audienceWere seeds planted? And if so, will they developinto full aliyah? Time will tell, Experiments willcontinue in the meantime.

Letters to Editor (Continued from page 3)which delved Into the question of the label M-l-Ch-v-n-st P-g problem. Whilst supporting therights to equality of all persons, irrespective of sex,religion, colour or creed, especially in the fieldof equal work and wage opportunities. I think thecomments made in the said letter border on "pettywollberism" and certainly won't have any impacton the cause. The Editor's comments surprisedme to some extent and I am sure not enoughthought has been given as to how to introduce thechanges suggested.If I were a member of an International organisationconnected with Women's Rights, I would insiston the following "label", e.g.1. Ms. Anti-A Pigglewitz and husband ex Johan

nesburg; or

2. Ms. Anti-A Pigglewitz and Mr. M— Oh— Pig-glewitz ex Johannesburg.

Alternatively, and as is specifically allowed by lawrn Israel, if I were a woman in Israel, I wouldretain my maiden name, end therefore you couldpr in t : —

A. Ms. Anti-A Menowitz: ex JohannesburgB. Mr. M— Ch— Pigglewitz: ex Johannesburg.

A footnote could be added stating that Ms. Menowitz and Mr. Pigglewitz are wife and man,or whatever else their status may be.

1 for one would be hard pressed to remember anextra set of names in my circle of friends andacquaintances, but with Dale Carnegie's help eventhis could be overcome. A new problem mightarise in Israel as to whether the above A and Bare two separate entities, and If so, perhaps therewould be double immigrants rightsiOn this basis, of course, you would have to havea separate "mail" and "femail" list of subscribersto TELFED. Therefore. I for one agree that TELFEDbe sent and addressed to my wife only.LadiesI by all means carry on your struggle, butsurely there are more serious matters at stakeand wider channels for distribution of comments.

Yours sincerely.J a c k R a b i n

A D V I C E A B O U T Y O U R W I L L

South African settlers who possess assets in Israeland in the Republic have frequently sought advicein regard to the making of their Wills, and especially, in respect of their assets in the Republic.The advice of leading authorities in South Africawas obtained and the gist thereof is set out here.

A (i) For a Will to be valid according to SouthAfrican law it must be signed by the testator at the foot in the presence of two witnesses who must also sign it in his presenceand in the preseence of one another.

(ii) Where the Will consists of more than onepage the testator and the witnesses mustsign each page in the manner set out in (i)a b o v e .

(iii) Any alteration must be signed as close aspossible to it by the testator and the witn e s s e s .

(iv) Initialling is not sufficient; the testator andwitnesses must sign their names in full.

B. A Will drawn by a South African domiciled inIsrael in accordance with Israeli law will beaccepted as valid in the Republic. The situationof the assets will make no difference.

C. A South African domiciled in Israel who ownsan estate in the Republic and also one outsideof the Republic caneither (i) draw two Wills, one dealing with his

South African estate and the otherdealing with his estate outside ofSouth Af r ica

or (li) draw one Will dealing with all hisassets wherever situate and of whatever kind.

It is preferable, because of considerations ofpossible administrative difficulties to draw twoWills; care should be taken to identify clearly theassets being dealt with.

D. It Is possible to appoint as executor or administrator of a South African estate a person whodoes not reside in the Republic but such personwould be obliged to give security and to give anaddress In the Republic where notices and legaldocuments can be served on him.

E. Persons who are not ordinarily resident in theRepublic at the date of death incur liability for

South African estate duty only in respect of assets situate in the Republic.A schedule of estate duty payable on assets inthe Republic is available for inspection at theo f fi c e .

F. In so far as a South African estate is concernedtestators would be wise to include the followingp r o v i s i o n : —"In so far as my South African estate is concerned I direct that my administrators shall intheir sole discretion have the right to appoint anaccountant to sign the certificate in the prescribed form as provided in Sec. 65 (i)a of SouthAfrican Act No. 66 of 1965."

W A R N I N GThe making of a Will is a serious matter and would-be testators would be well advised not to attemptthe task by themselves but to seek legal adviceand assistance.

Regional Committees (Contd. from page 8)attended. An interesting address was delivered byMr. Hertzel Katz and a strong Committee waselected. The Chairman is Mr. Jeff Kruger; Vice-Chairman, Mr. Nathan Kansky; Hon. Treasurer, Mr.Percy Silbert and Hon. Secretary, Mrs. Gail Lapping. Sub-Committees were established to handlesocial, cultural and welfare matters and to givehelp and advice regarding schools for children ofdim.

African volunteers feel at home and "wanted"Volunteers on meshakim in the Netanya area wereinvited to participate in two youth gatherings andenjoyed themselves immensely.
