Abe Goldstein, president of the
Atlanta Jewish Welfare Fund,
announced this week that the
Board of the Welfare Fund had
approved the inclusion of the
United Jewish Appeal Special
Fund in the 1962 Campaign.
He stated that "the Welfare
Fund Board’s approval was based
on the action taken at the 24th
Annual National Conference of
the United Jewish Appeal. It
was based on the special needs
expressed in a resolution adopted
unanimously by that Conference.
In that resolution, Mr. Gold
stein explained, it was pointed
out that a noteworthy increase
in the immigration of Jews to
Israel and other lands presents
to American Jews an opportuni
ty to assist large numbers of
Jews to start their lives anew.
These developments have al
ready put the greatest strain on
the people of Israel and on the
Jewish Agency, as the needs of
immigrants already in Israel far
outstrip the funds available for
Hadassah Arranging “Exciting”

from Israel to America, will be
the theme of the Atlanta Chapter
of Hadassahs annual Education
Day on Monday, Jan 22 at the

The morning session beginning
at 10:30 a m will feature slides of
the brilliant stained-glass win
dows designed by Marc Chagall
for the Synagogue of the Hadas-
sah-Hebrew University Medical
Center in Jerusalem. The win
dows were displayed both at the
Louvre in Paris and the Museum
of Modern Art in New York
where thousands of people waited
in line daily to get to see them.
Mrs. Emanuel Feldman, who
viewed the wundows in Paris,
will describe and comment on
the windows.
V’ignettcs displaying the many
facets of Israeli character and
background in both humorous
and moving episodes will be a
highlight of the morning session.
These dramatic readings will be
presented by Ann Kingloff and
Helen Greenbaum, well known
for work in Atlanta drama
groups.
A light and gay musical ex
cerpt from “Milk and Honey,” the
new Broadway Hit based on Is-"'"
rael will be presented by a Tel
Chai group, including Mesdames
Howard Banner, Perry Brickman,
Aaron Franco. Robert Goldwass-
er, Harris Jacobs, Jack Komissar,
Jacob Korman, Leonard Levy,
Nat Rosenzweig, Marvin Silver,
Charles Wachs, Alan Wasser-
man.
Dr. Daniel Hillel. noted Israeli
Agronomist, will be the distin
guished speaker of the day. He
will discuss his own exciting ex
periences in conquering the
wasteland of the Negev. For in
1952, he helped establish a desert
settlement in the southern Negev,
where he lived for several years.
Dr Hillel is a former paratrooper
in the Israeli Army. In 1957, he
was sent by the Israel govern
ment to the Far East to serve as
Agricultural Advisor to the gov
ernment of Burma. In 1959 he
received a grant to undertake
further research at the University
of California.
A special exhibit of Israeli art
objects will be assembled under
the direction of Mrs. Edward
Reish.
The all-day program is under
the chairmanship of Mrs Joseph
Glazer, chapter vice president of
education. Her co-chairmen, the
group vice presidents of educa
tion are: for Herzlia, Mrs. Sol

their effective incorporation Into
the economy of Israel.
The Joint Distribution Com
mittee in its overseas and Israel
programs has been unable to
meet in full measure its obliga
tions on the funds now available
to it The people of Israel have
undertaken to increase their al
ready heavy financial commit
ments by adopting compulsory
loans and increasing their taxes
in order to meet the present
urgent situation.
Mr. Goldstein pointed out that
American Jewry has always re
sponded to the challege to save
and build lives. It must at this
time do its utmost in meeting
this latest challege, while at the
same time continuing its sup
port to the activities and pro
grams of agencies overseas, in
Israel, and in this country, which
are concerned with the welfare
of our fellow Jews.

the United Jewish Appeal point

paign for the Special Fund
should be conducted by Jewish
communities throughout the
United States simultaneously
with and in addition to the
Regular Campaign for 1962. Con
tributions to the Special Fund
obtained by the Jewish Welfare
Fund are to be- over and above
the contributions to the Regular
Campaign and must be clearly
so indicated.
Mr. Goldstein added that the
Board of the Welfare Fund
unanimously went on record as
approving a two-card Campaign
for 1962—one for the Regular
Fund and another card for the
Special Rescue Fund, which is
to be over and above contribu
tions made to the Regular Fund.
He emphasized that the con
solidated giving during 1961 must
form the basis for continued
giving and that the giving to the
Rescue Fund must be over and
above the Regular contributions
or it will fail to serve the needs
encompassed by the Special
Rescue Fund, which are con
cerned with the challenge and
opportunity of the present urg
ent situation
The details of the 1962 C/am-
paign as to goals, date^ and
leadership will be announced
shortly.
