In pointing out the "paths to more effective manpower utilization,"
Eli Ginzberg warns Israel Manpower Planning Authority that:
",..serious problems will rise in Israel as the number
of students completing elementary school from recent immi-
grant families from Africa and Asia begin to outnumber
those who are native-born or who come from the families
of immigrants from Europe....
...-The birth rate of recent immigrant families from Africa
and Asia is much higher than that of the earlier settlers
from Europe, which carries the threat that "Oriental" Jewry,

Israelis are going abroad and that many are delaying their
return; that the number of immigrants from the West--Europe,
North and South America, and South Africa--remains low.
...-Against these demographic facts, to which must be added
that... the Arab population in Israel and surrounding Israel

in manpower in quantitative terms is certain to worsen in
the decades ahead." 64

of special attention to be "devoted to devising ways and means to help in
accelerating the flow of trained manpower from the West."

erty" argument and "blaming the victim" tone in his analysis of why the
Oriental-Jews are potentially unfit and untrainable for high technology

labor force; which, in turn, necessitates the devotion of all effort to
accelerate the inflow of trained manpower from the West. It is the place,
however, to conclude that sophisticated training of unskilled Oriental-
Jewish labor force in Israel is neither a national priority nor one of
