EDUCATION
An overwhelming number of Soviet professors, teachers and even head of universities were of Jewish nationality. They are not listed here for lack of space. It would take too many pages to list them all. Instead, their number is given on percentage basis for the country as a whole on the following page under the heading “statistics” listed as “scientific workers”.
The special communist universities, schools, etc., as a rule, were filled with Jewish teachers. For example, the Western Communist University of National Minorities, which trained propagandists specializing in foreign politics, was headed by Rector Frumkin; Rector I. G. Raiter was the head of Communist University of Eastern Workers.

STATISTICS
According to the 1959 census the population of the USSR was 208.828.000. Of this 2.268.000 were Jews.
In USSR the Jews make up 11 per cent of all scientific workers; 10,4 per cent jurists (procurators, judges, lawyers); 14,7 per cent of all Soviet doctors; 8,5 per cent writers and journalists; 7 per cent art workers (actors, artists, musicians, sculptors).
Jewish population of the USSR constitutes 1,1 per cent of the country’s population. Is it possible to speak of discrimination against the Jews under such circumstances?
