The municipal budget for 1941-
42, still under discussion, will
amount to £583,803. The largest
budget in the city's 32 years of
history, it tops the current fiscal
year's £531,000 budget (which
will end on March 31) by over
£30,000, and exceeds the com-
bined totals of all the other 24
Palestinian municipalities.
The income is estimated at
£570,000, compared with £536,563
for 1940-41; and the principal
items are (last year's figures in
brackets) : general taxation and
rates, £366,200 (£331,000) ; in-
come from services, £51,000
(167,950); water supply £124,-
000 (1113,000). Estimated ex-
penditures at £583,803 compares
with actual expenditure of £520,-
7614 for the 1940-41 fiscal year.

2,000 WOMEN WITH PLEA FOR
JEWISH NATIONAL FUND WORK
New Record Set at 10th Annual Donor Luncheon of the
Ladies' Auxiliary of Jewish National Fund
A new record in attendance
was set here on Wednesday when
2,000 women attended the 10th
annual donor luncheon of the
Ladies' Auxiliary of the Jewish
National Fund, at the Arcadia
Ballroom, Woodward and Stim-
son. It is believed that all records
for attendance at fund-raising
luncheons in Detroit were shat-
tered at this event.
Ittamar Ben-Avi, noted Pales-
tinian, linguist, editor and orator,
inspired the large assembly with
an appeal for continued unstinted
effort in behalf of Palestine's re-
construction.
Mrs. Philip Slomovitz, president
of the auxiliary, presided. Mrs.
Philip J. Cutler, chairman of the
luncheon committee, greeted the
gathering. A musical program,

that ever greater support will be
given the land-redemption pro-

Recently, Rabbi Cashdan de-
scribed the courage of the Eng
lish people in a letter to Rabbi
David Polish, director of the Bnai
Brith Hillel Foundation at Cor-
nell University.
BECAUSE IT IS THE BEST
President Roosevelt's addresses,
Rabbi Cashdan writes, are a
great encouragement to the Brit-
ish.
The Car That Gives You the Good Things First
He writes: "We are neither
despondent here nor downhearted.
We are confident and hopeful—
SEE
confident in the knowledge that
our cause is a just one."

According to the Hebrew press
steps have been taken for the
incorporation of Montefiore Sub-
urb just outside Tel Aviv into
the latter's municipal jurisdic-
tion. The authorities have already
formally asked Tel Aviv Munici-
pality whether it is prepared to
accept this incorporation, and the
latter has replied in the affirma-

month of the spring fashion show
arranged by the Foreign Trade
Association—is now thoroughly
geared to wartime production
and mores.
Here it was that at the end
.of 1940 the first Women's Motor
Unit of the Near East was or-
ganized. From this city have been
recruited a large proportion of
the over 8,000 young Palestinian-
Jewish soldiers who are now serv-
ing with the British Forces on
all fronts, including those men
who are serving with the Middle-
East Force of 100,000 who left
from Haifa and Alexandria Har-
bors within the past month and
who are now disembarking at
Salonika in preparation for the
expected British offensive in the
Balkans.
The large-scale program of
construction that has already
provided thousands of air-raid
shelters in private homes and
public places, the extensive emer-
gency hospitalization facilities
that are now available and which
are considered thoroughly ade-
quate for any eventuality, and
the numerous first-aid stations of
the Red Shield (Magen David
Adorn) First Aid Society are all
an index of the spirit in which
Tel Aviv has entered into the
necessary war preparations.
The over 200,000 Jewish in-
habitants of this city have origi-
nated in various corners of the
world and speak all kinds of lan-
guages, giving Tel Aviv a pe-
culiarly international aspect.
The principal lands of origin of
the foreign-born persons, in the
order of their numerical contri-
bution to the population, are the
Nazi-dominated territorities of
Poland, Germany, Austria, Czech-
oslovakia, Rumania, Bulgaria and
Hungary. Other centers from
which sizable numbers of immi-
grants have come are Russia,
Lithuania, Yemen, Greece, Tur-
key, Latvia, Egypt, Syria, Per-
sia, Iraq, the United States and
England.
