THE SOUTHERN ISRAEUTE
Friday, Oct. 30, 1970
The South Mobilizes for Israel Bond Campaign
Atlanta Women Show Way — Fashionably
Wives of the senior rabbis of Atlanta’s Jewish community will
be honored during the forthcoming Israel Fashion Show for their
excellent leadership during the 1969 event, which they spearheaded
as chairmen, and for their role in the current campaign underway.
Shown above discussing the Fashion Show are (1. to r.) Mrs. Jacob
Rothschild, Mrs. Emanuel Feldman, Mrs. Donald Frieman, Mrs.
Joseph Cohen and Mrs. Harry H. Epstein. Not available at the time
of the picture are Mrs. Richard Lehrman and Mrs. Robert Ichay,
both of whom are very active in the committee.
The two ladies who head the 1970 show get down to the real
nitty-gritty of a Fashion show—the apparel which the models will
actually wear and display. And from the happy faces of Mrs. Dave
( Alterman and Mrs. Leon Frohsin, there’s no doubt that they
are finding great delight in the combination leather and knit crea
tion they’re examining.
The Women’s Division of At
lanta’s Israel Bond Campaign
will pay tribute to the out
standing success of last year’s
campaign by honoring the 1969
chairmen at Israel Fashion Show
and Luncheon to be held at the
S h e r aton-Biltmore Hotel on
Tuesday, December 1.
These ladies are the wives of
Atlanta’s senior rabbis, Mrs.
Joseph Cohen, Mrs. Harry Ep
stein, Mrs. Emanuel Feldman,
Mrs. Donald Frieman, Mrs. Rob
ert Ichay, Mrs. Richard Lehr
man, and Mrs. Jacob Rothschild.
Although new to the city this
year, Mrs. Frieman enthusias
tically fulfills the place left by
her predecessor, Mrs. Nissim
Wernick.
General chairmen for the cur
rent year are Mrs. David Alter -
man and Mrs. Leon Frohsin,
both outstanding leaders who
have served in many capacities
for civic and charitable organi
zations in the past. Mrs. Alter-
man is a past president of the
Atlanta Chapter of Hadassah, a
former vice president of the
Ahavath Achim Sisterhood, and
retains active participation on
both of these boards at the pres
ent time. She has twice served
as chairman of the Atlanta Jew
ish Welfare Federation Cam
paign, Women’s Division.
Mrs. Frohsin is currently
serving her second consecutive
term as chairman of the Wom
en’s Division of the Atlanta
Jewish Welfare Federation. She
is a past president of the Serv
ice Guild and has served four
times as chairman for the At
lanta Jewish Welfare Federation
Campaign, Women’s Division.
In 1959 she received the signal
honor of being chosen Atlanta
Woman of the Year, being cited

originally as Woman of the Year
in Civic Service.
Under the strong leadership of
these two ladies there is no
doubt but that the 1970 Women’s
Israel Bond Campaign will ex
ceed even last year’s remarkable
victory. “It has to,” Mrs. Froh
sin declares. “Israel’s needs are
greater than they have ever been
and we have to respond in every
way we possibly can. Buying
Bonds is the easiest way of all
We’re not even giving them
anything. We’re just transferr
ing some of our savings from
one bank to another, letting our
dollars work for Israel while
they are working for us. Any
body can do that. It’s the least
we can do.”
Charleston Bond Drive
Headed by Shapiro
Samuel Robert Shapiro, prom
inent businessman and commun
al leader in Charleston, has ac
cepted the chairmanship of
Charleston’s 1970 campaign to
advance the economic develop
ment of Israel through the sale
of State of Israel Bonds.
The 1970 drive will mark the
twentieth year of the participa
tion of the Jewish community
of Charleston in the growth of
Israel’s economy through the
Israel Bond Organization. It will
seek to mobilize large sums of
investment capital to maintain
Israel’s economy at peak
strength as a vital factor in its
survival and as a means of ad
vancing the prospects for peace
in the Middle East, Mr. Shapiro
said.
Mr. Shapiro was born in Au
gusta and received his elemen
tary and high school education
in Richmond County. He grad
uated from the University of
Georgia in 1963 with a degree
in business administration. He
entered the investment business
in 1964 in Charleston and was
elected as an allied member of
the New York Stock Exchange,
and a vice president of Frost,
Johnson, Read and Smith in
1967.
He serves on the boards of
Jewish Community Cen ter,
Charleston Jewish Welfare Fund,
and Synagogue Emanu-el. He
only recently returned from a
trip to Israel. He is married to
the former Regina Barth Krons-
berg of Charleston. They have
three sons, Joel Barth seven,
Louis Steven five, and Harry
Bernard three.
Proceeds from Israel Bonds,
which are sold in the United
States, Canada and other parts
of the free world, have been
used to finance the expansion
of industry, the development of
agriculture, the exploitation of
natural resources, the construc
tion of housing, highways and
and harbors, and the promotion
of- transportation and tourism.
In outlining plans for this
year’s Israel Bond campaign,
Mr. Shapiro described the im
portance of increased assistance
to Israel’s economic development
at a time when the crisis in the
Middle East has diverted the
bulk of the country’s resources
to meet a crushing defense bur
den.
“It is essential,” he said, “that
Israel’s economy keep pace with
its growing population, which
is now more than 2,900,000. Some
40,000 immigrants entered in
1969, and an additional 60,000
are expected to come to Israel
in 1970. Israel needs increased
funds from Israel Bonds to ex
pand housing and employment
opportunities, and to make pos
sible the growth of every eco
nomic sector, in order to truly
integrate the newcomers into
the life of the country.”
Mr. Shapiro emphasized the
decisive role which Israel Bonds

have played in the impressive
economic progress achieved by
Israel during the past two dec
ades. During this period, he
noted, the country’s gross na
tional product has risen at an
average rate of some 10 percent
per year, reflecting large-scale
expansion of every sector of the
economy. He pointed out that
this progress had taken place in
spite of continuing boycotts,
blockades, and frequent armed
attack by the Arabs.
“With the aid of Israel Bonds,”
he said, “the coming years can
open up new vistas of progress
and development, and bring
about an end to conflict and the
beginning of a period of peace
and prosperity.”
