Indications Good Says F. Margolin All Indications point to a successful 1936 campaign, according to UJA Chairman Frank J. Margolin. Day-to-day bulletins from cities that have already started their campaigns show excellent results, in fact averaging SO pep cent increases over last year. These cities, which Include Toledo, Detroit, Winnipeg, Atlanta, and Miami, indicate the concern that American Jews feel about the current developments in Israel and North Africa, Mr. Margolin stated. Sioux City's UJA campaign will (.tart in April, and will aim to increase 19S5's total by 30 per c e n t To assure this increase, the local UJA cabinet must set its sights at a higher percentage—at least 50 per cent, Mr. Margolin stated.
