Many more passengers than the number permitted. She
asked further, how is it possible to lend a hand to
abandoning helpless girls to drivers who enslave them?
Why do we have to see and keep silent? Her appeal to
"That Which Hurts" was transferred to the Staff Comman-
dant of the Dan Region of the Israeli police.

"The police reply," writes Haelyon, " which reached us
at the beginning of April, 1974, included a recommenda-
tion to approach the Employment Service about the control
of the work of Arab women who come to the moshav. We were
not satisfied. . .and appealed again to the police. . .
and passed the reply to the complainer, who in turn, being
disappointed with the police's work, wrote again: "It
hurts us that in the Israel State, 1974, we all lend a
hand to the creation of the "Raises", who beat and pick
up uneducated Arab girls. Thus is done in the presence
of our children, who are stunned. Is that the way we
want to bring them up? Does shortage of workers justify
such shame? Are workers in Israel of 1974 transported in
such a disgraceful way? It seems that this state of af-
fairs is convenient to all groups involved."
. . eAs we deepened the treatment of the case, it seemed
more and more serious. At the end of July we appealed
to the police and to the Ministry of Labor, asking for a
basic investigation of the problem. We also supplied
them with the vehicle numbers of the "Raises" and further
details. In September we received a letter from Mr. Hirsch
of the State Police staff, in which the following was re-
ported:
". . .the police had taken action in order to deal with
the vehicles transgressing various traffic laws while
transporting women workers to that moshav. In the police
visits, tickets were given to offenders who were there;
tickets for transporting passengers outside the body of
vehicle, transporting more passengers than permitted by
the driver's license, etc. At the end of the police oper-
ations, no offenses of the aforementioned kind were seen
during visits there. The police will continue their con-
trol in order to prevent the renewal of the phenomenon."
After five months, Mrs. Egozi (who wanted to wait and see
how things would turn out) replied that in spite of the
police operation, the "Raises" continue to act as they
please. In the meantime, however, because of the economic
situation, the number of workers in the moshav went down,
which seems to temporarily reduce the seriousness of the
phenomenon. She argued that although Moshav Rishpon is
not situated at a crossroads, the police should watch over
