Federation To Borrow $325,000 For Israel U. S. Communities Pledge 70 Million Miami Beach, Flo (JTA)—Sixty-nine Jewish c o m m u n i t i e s throughout the United States have already pledged the sum of $09,850,000 towards a five-year loan of $75,000,000 to retire short-term indebtedness of the State of Israel and stabilize the country's economy. Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, executive vice-chairman, announced here at the 1954 National Inaugural Conference of the United Jewish Appeal. ' The conference, attended by 900 community leaders from alt parts of the country, was told by the UJA leader that the loan—first such project ever undertaken by an American philanthropic agency—was in addition to the $119,921,150 goal of the United Jewish Appeal ior'WM. VJA leaden hope to complete the campaign for the loan within the next six weeks to avoid Interference with the regular UJA drive. Mass Influx The extraordinary loan project was proposed by the UJA last December 10 In.New York at a meeting of representative Amerl•can Jewish leaders. They were told that the Jewish Agency had incurred a critical indebtedness arising out of the n u n influx of .750,000 immgrants in tie period -from May 14,1948, when the State was founded, to May, 1053, Taking action on this report, the New York meeting endorsed • proposal to seek a $75,000,000 loan from tho country's Jewish communities to bo amortized over a five-year period at a rate of 20 percent per annum to bo guaranteed out of the receipts of the United Jcwi»h Appeal's fundraising campaigns. The meeting also named a 99-msn organizing committee headed by William Rosenwald, national chairman of the UJA, who led n move to present this plan to local Jewish welfare funds. Belire DebU Dr. Schwartz pointed out that the loan would have the effect of making it possible for the Government of Israel to retire some $75,000,000 In short term debts which now Impose a staggering burden on the new State's economy, , It'was explained that, to make up for the shortage of funds required to carry on its philanthropic work, the Jewish Agency wa» forced to borrow heavily from' the Government of Israel, .and that the Government, in Its turn, incurred sizable debts of a shortterm nature to meet the emergency growing out of the mass lrnmlgratlon. The funds which the Jewish Agency will receive will come to it from the United Israel Appeal, the major constituent agency of the UJA.
Arrangements Completed For Local Bank Loan Arrangements for a $325,000 loan were completed by thft Jewish Philanthropies with a local bank, J. Harry Kulakofsky, President of the Jewish Federation, announced this week.

United Nations, N. Y. (JTA)— Egypt's threat to call a meeting of the'signatory powers of the international pact governing administration of the Suez Canal, If the United Nations Security Council rules Egypt's anti-Israel blockade Illegal, was described this week In UN circles as sheer, blackmail, and ineffective at that. (In Washington, Israel Ambassador Abba Ebon called on Assistant Secretary for United Nations Affairs David Key to discus? with him various UN matters including future procedures in cenncction with a discussion in the Security Council of its resolution of September 1, 1B51, concerning the Suez Canal blockade.) The United States was not on< of the signatories of the Constantinople Convention of 1888 which governs administration of the waterway. Czarist Russia was a signatory, but whether the Soviet Union would be invited to such r meeting is questionable. Other signatories to the pact were tho Ottoman Empire, Britain, Germany Austria, Spain, Italy, France, Luxemburg and The Netherlands. In any event, observers here point out, convocation of such r meeting could only take place If three of the signatories joined in calling for it. It is not believed here that Egypt could get any other country to go along with it In such a move. The Egyptian threa' was hinted at by Dr. Mahmouud Azml. Egypt's representative to the : <JN '

ber of the Israel Delegation, to the United Nations, Kalman Goldenberg, member of the United Jewish Appeal Cabinet, and Edward Vajda, Assistant Field Director of the VJA, explained the project and presented s u p p o r t ing evidence for the urgency of this loan. The meeting, at which a large attendance of members was present, voted unanimously to authorize the loan to the amount of $329,000, toward the national project. Subsequently, a special committee consisting of David Blacker, chairman, Harry B. Cohen. Alfred .Mayer, Nathan/ L. Nogg, Harry Sidman, Harry Trustin, and J, Harry Kulakofsky, Jack W. Marcr, nnd Robert H. Kooper, exofficio, was appointed by the president to work out the details, and make arrangements for the loan. The committee reported i t » finding and Its successful negotiations for the loan, which is to be repayable over a period of five years by the United Jewish Appeal, at the meeting of the Tcderation Executive Committee held February 18. The Executive Committee unanimously approved the arrangements and authorized the Committee to comnletc the loan. Support Urged "The grant of thin bank loan to the J e w i s h Philanthropies of Omaha indicates confidence In the Jewish community of Omaha and recognition of Its efforts in restoring peace and economic stability in the State of Israel," J. Harry Kulakofsky said. "One and a half million Jcwi found a haven and a refuse In Israel. During its almost six years Of statehood, Israel has won the admiration of the world for its economic, social, educational and political achievements. Despite threats and efforts to Impede its normal development, Israel has been making tangible and deflnWe progress toward economic independence from year to year. "Every Jew In Omaha has had a share In this historic miracle of the ages, Through the support of the United Jewish Appeal. Omaha Jewry has clayed Its part In making It possible for more than 800,'000 Jews to enter Israel and find a final home there, and helD them to become absorbed In the land. "We are now on the eve of the 1954 Campaign for the United Jewish Aopeal.

V TALMUD : Our Rabbis taught—Those who are being humiliated by others but do not humiliate others, in return; who listen to their, reproaches without even answering them; who perform their duties because of love for their social service work; and rejoice in spite' of all their pain (because of the reproach), concerning them the Scriptures say: "They will shine as the rising of the sun in his might" The older the scholars get the more wisdom they acquire; but the older the ignorant men get the more foolish they become. Silence is the cure for everything. When Rabbi Dim! came from the land of Israel he r e porte<l that there the saying runs: "A word is worth a sela (a dollar) and silence two." ; Rabbi Samuel ben Maria said: "The study of tho Torah Is more. Important than the building of the Temple."

They build for freedom...
THEY MUST NOT STAND ALONE... These are the faces of a free people — the people of Israel, A dream like our own American dream umpires these men an3 women: freedom, opportunity for work and betterment, peace.. As Americans did, they fought for and won independence, Like Americans they know that "democracy" and "freedom* are just words unless you keep doing something about them. With your help through the United Jewish Appeal — in less than six years of statehood — They opened their gates to 723,0OQ refugees, reclaimed 600,000 wasteland acres, doubled agricultural output, put uo 186,000 housing units, built 325 new settlements, Israel's people have forged halfway to their goal of 3 Belf-sufficient, modern-minded state. ' "• But today, their great democratic achievement! are threatened.
'
They are menaced by trade barriers, boycott, the blockade of shipping, political harassment and the unceasing activity of border marauders. The right of Israel's men and women to build a land -t with a free press, just courts, free education, opportunity for labor and business, freedom of worship — is being challenged. In the face of today's hostility can IaraeVs people reach their goal of a permanently rooted democracy in the Middle East? The answer dependi - In great part - on you.
