THE REAR-GUARD SOLDIERS
JDC-Mablen Residents Happy and Bnsy
Producing Insignia for Israeli Army
. 5-6536 5
mwwwww!
If any of the Israeli soldiers
should visit the old age homes at
Malben, the Joint Distribution
Committee welfare program for
aged, ill and handicapped new
comers in Israel, they can be
sure of an enthusiastic reception
from their “rear-guard” col
leagues.
Dozens of elderly women, resi
dents of the fifteen homes main
tained by JDC-Malben, with
United Jewish Appeal funds, feel
as much a part of the army as
the soldiers themselves, for they
are busy at their sewing ma
chines and work tables in the oc
cupational therapy rooms and
workshops, producing thousands
of insignia, arm bands and skull
caps on special order of the
Ministry of Defense.
Landing the contract itself was
a major achievement. The elder
ly residents of the Malben homes
have often shown their public
spirit — by going to the polls in
great numbers at election time,
by making contributions from
their meager pocket money for
various fund raising drives, and
in other ways. But to work for
the army, the pride of all Is
raelis, this was their greatest
joy.
Their achievement was so
much sweeter since they won the
contract in competition with reg
ular business enterprises in Is
rael. The Defense Ministry orig
inally ordered the skull caps
(kipot) from private firms but
the quality of the machine-made
products did not quite measure
up. Aware of the skill and pati
ence of the elderly immigrant
women in producing needlework,
the Ministry gave the elderly
craftsmen a sample order. This
was satisfactorily completed and
soon additional orders followed.
The women are now producing
some 2,500 kipot, 3,000 insignia
for non-commissioned officers,
and a large number of arm bands
for the military police. They
Russia Permits Transfer
Of Boroehov’s Remains
From Kiev to Israel
TEL AVIV (JTA)—The re
mains of Dov Ber Borochov,
the founder of Zionist Social
ism, are en route to Israel from
the Soviet Union for reinter
ment, members of his family
said here Monday.
Borochov was buried in 1917
in a cemetery at Kiev. His fam
ily, which lives in Israel, heard
that Russian authorities were
planning to raze the cemetery
to make room for a housing
project. They appealed to
President Ben-Zvi who sent a
personal letter to L. I. Bresh-
nev, chairman of the all-Soviet
Presidium. A reply was re
ceived last month that per
mission had been granted for
re-burial in Israel. Joseph
Tekoah, Israel’s Ambassador to
Russia, is accompanying the
remains back to Israel.
have also received a substantial
order for arm bands from the Is
raeli police force. The women
have greeted the orders with
great enthusiasm. Recently they
even asked for permission to
work overtime (during afternoon
hours) in order to complete the
order quickly. Permission was
granted. There was even com
petition among the residents to
take part in the work.
And now many of the aged
women, who consider themselves
rear-guard soldiers, nourish the
secret hope that one day soon
they may meet a few of the front
line soldiers wearing the in
signia they produced with such
skill and devotion.
