./* V. A. J. Weinberg, Mr. Massell and former Secretary of the Treasury Henry F. Morgenthau Jr. Mr. Massell’s vigorous participation in behalf of Bonds for Israel campaigns cannot be overestimated- He believed in the economic efficacy of this way the State of Israel was taking to raise funds for her economic development. He knew well what sound investments could do for a country—especially for a new and fledgling country up holding the standards of democracy almost single-handedly in the Middle East. And he backed up his understanding and approval with substantial purchases, becoming one of the country’s top purchasers of Israel Bonds, undoubtedly the largest in the South. He lent his energies and efforts too to leading the campaigns year after year and taking chairmanships to indicate his backing. Governor Herman Talmadge and his wife Betty at a dinner featuring a citation from the State of Israel for Mr. Massell in behalf of his constant and top support of Bonds. 16 The Southern Israelite
