PALESTINIAN
WORK SPURRED

U. P. A. Describes Its
Progress in Many
Fields

NEW YORK — Every activity
to preserve and expand the Jew-
ish homeland in Palestine is re-
ceiving new impetus as a result
of war events, it is emphasized
in a review of progress issued
here by the United Palestine Ap-
peal, America's fund-raising in-
strument for the upbuilding of
the Jewish homeland, whose na-
tional chairman is Dr. Abba Hil-
lel Silver.
Although the field of war has
conic, closer to the borders of
Palestine, with Italian planes hay-
ing flown over Haifa and Tel
Aviv, and with the opening this
week of recruitment for a Jewish
unit in the British regiment of
Buffs stationed in the Middle
East, the Jewish Agency for Pal-
estine and the Jewish National
Fund have gone forward, on an
enlarged scale, to preserve the
Jewish position and to permit
additional thousands of Jews to
enter Palestine from hate-torn
Europe.

The Highlights

Highlights of the review of
progress, issued to coincide with
the launching of fall campaigns
for the United Jewish Appeal
throughout the country, show:
(a) that 18,000 Jews have en-
tered Palestine in the past year
and that 6,000 others are now
on their way from various ports;
(b) that the relief needs, arising
out of unemployment and war-
time restrictions and prepara-
tions, have thrust new responsi-
bilities on the Jewish Agency;
(c) that the Jewish Agency is
enabling scores of new enter-
prises to get started, thus pro-
viding employment for many
workers and strengthening the
economic foundations of the
country; (d) that sonic 38,000
dunams of land were purchased
by the Jewish National Fund in
a ten-month period, and that tens
of thousands of additional du-
nams are available for purchase.
It is the spirit of the Jews of
Palestine which receives the
greatest emphasis in the review.

A Happy New Year to All

American Jew s Challenged To
Equal Palestine Jewry's
Heroism

A challenge to the Jews of
America to "measure up the
crisis in Palestine" is sounded in
an editorial featured in the
U.P.A. Report, monthly publica-
tion issued by the United Pales-
tine Appeal, American Jewry's
fund-raising instrument for the
rebuilding of the Jewish home-
land in Palestine.
Emphasizing the heroic strug-
gle in which the 500,000 Jews
of Palestine are engaged — to
Preserve the foundations already
laid and to make room for thou •
sands of other Jews — the edi-
torial declares that the "Jews in
America are given a unique op-
portunity at this hour to do more
than stand by and watch fear-
fully for the outcome of this
titanic struggle."
-American Jews are reminded
that all who are helping Great
Britain to hold off and ultima-
tely to defeat Hitler are strug-
gling for the values with which
our own country's future is
bound up." The editorial adds:
"Ours is the privilege—and the
Solemn obligation—to give match-
less support to the Jews of Pal-
estine."
