Israel's
needs help! Israel’s strong man is not a military dictator. He is a hard-working immigrant farmer, rooted in the soil. He is one of 130,000 on the 485 settlements established in Israel with the help of UJA funds since 1948. His hands awakened neglected earth . . . rolled back the desert... created villages in the wilderness. He is one of the architects of Israel’s peace, security and economic strength. His hard-won crops have made Israel self-sufficient in almost all foodstuffs. The sources of his strength? His own courage — plus your help, through the United Jewish Appeal. But for all he has accomplished through the years, he is still far short of his goal. 1 He needs more and better irrigation, livestock, roads, power, machinery. And, courageous as he is, he cannot break through the economic barrier alone. Help — today — with your generous contribution to the 1961 United Jewish Appeal.
IN 1061, UNITED JEWISH APPEAL MUST:
Spe«d absorption of 320,000 recent immigrants in Israel by: Helping 130,000 farm settlers gain economic stability; Expanding vital aid for 115,000 young, ill and aged; Housing as many as possible of 40,000 still in shanties; Receiving and absorbing 35,000 expected in 1961. Extend relief, medical and other distress aid to 255,000 Jews — almost half of them children — in Europe, Africa and Asia. Provide resettlement aid for 5,500 refugees to the United States.
