Speaking at the final session of the Beth Israel Institute of Adult Studies, Rabbi Oscar Z, Fasman, president of the Hebrew Theological College in Chicago, predicted a sharp rise in assimilation and inter-marriage for the next few years, and then a reversal of the trend and the stabilization of the American Jew. "The high rates of inter-marriage and assimilation we see now arc the results of our neglect of Jewish education for the past generation'' he said. "I am optimistic about the survival of the American Jew, because we have finally realized the need for better Jewish education, and we are beginning to do something about it. The results, however, v/ill not be seen for some years to come." Rabbi Fasman sees the HeIireiv Day school as the greatest Lope for the survival o£ Atner-

Rabbi Fasman recognized the problem of obtaining Rabbis and educators for the smaller Jewish communities.. "It is a major failing of "our times" he said, "but it is a problem that I am confident will be overcome in the next few years."
