M Bonds Reinvestment Sunday is opportunity for early redemption Synagogues in various loca tions around Atlanta will serve as headquarters for the Israel Bond Reinvestment Sunday cam paign from 9:30 a.m.-noon Sun- cay, Nov. 2, when friends who bought Israel Bonds in late 1971 and 1972 can redeem their securi- iiwS as much as 14 months before maturity dates. Asher Benator, general chair man of the Israel Bond campaign in Atlanta, pointed out that these 15-year bonds are normally due to mature next year. “The state of Israel,” he said, “is offering up to 14 months of advanced interest to the regis tered owner of the bonds pro vided funds are added and the bonds are reinvested immediate ly-” He continued: “Many congre gations in our community sup- port the Israel Bond program to mobilize investment capital for Israel s economic development each year. That is why we have chosen the synagogues as the best locations for Reinvestment Sunday. Israel Bond volunteers and members of the local Israel Bond staff will thus be able to accommodate bondholders close to their homes.” Kenneth Levy, reinvestment chairman, believes “there are many people in our community who hold bonds which have al ready matured. These securities do not increase in value beyond the maturity date. We urge these friends of Israel to redeem these matured bonds and to reinvest in new bonds. Neither the state of Israel nor the bond owner receive any benefit from matured bonds sitting in a safe deposit box.” Bond owners who cannot visit a synagogue in their neighbor hood on Reinvestment Sunday can call the Israel Bond Office, 2250 North Druid Hills Road, 634-9500, for information and forms for reinvestment. Synagogues where bond holders can effect early reinvestment are Ahavath Achim, 600 Peachtree Battle Avenue, N. W.; Or VeSha- lom, 1681 North Druid Hills Road, N.E.; Temple Emanu-El, 1580 Spalding Drive, Durtwoody; and Temple Sinai, 5645 Dupree Drive, N.W.
