(Continued from Page 10)

for housing and adjusting the
more than 10,500 refugees who
reached the Jewish homeland dur-
ing that period.
To speed the integration of
the new arrivals and give them
an opportunity to rebuild their
lives as self-sustaining citizens
of the Jewish homeland, the Unit-
ed Palestine Appeal expanded its
agricultural settlement program,
with 15 new rural centers to be
established this year, bringing
the total number of agricultural
settlements to more than 290.
At the same time, the Jewish
National Fund has been called
upon to broaden its land acquisi-
tion activities to supply the areas
needed for the creation of new
settlements by the Palestine
Foundation Fund. During the past
six months the Jewish National
Fund acquired 13,952 dunams of
land, thereby increasing the op-
portunities for new rural develop-
ment and for the expansion of
food production for civilian and
military use.
On the industrial and fighting
fronts Palestine's contribution to
victory has gained worldwide rec-
lignition, reflecting the deter-
mined spirit of the Jews to help
hasten the day of liberation for
their fellow-Jews in the prison
house of Europe. The United
Palestine Appeal is extending
support to the dependent families
of many of the 50,000 Jewish
men and women who are serving
in various branches of the British
armed forces. In addition, a pro-
gram of settlement and reinte-
gration is now being launched in
behalf of discharged servicemen.
Both the Palestine Foundation
Fund and the Jewish National
Fund are jointly working out
plans whereby Palestin's war vet-
erans will be settled on the land

upon being discharged from the
army.
During the six-month period
from Oct. 1, 1943, to Apr. 1,
1944, the sum of $9,824,000 was
spent in Palestine for every phase
of the development of the Jew-
ish homeland by the agencies of
the UPA, the medium through
which American Jewry provides
the funds for financing the pro-
grame in Palestine of the Jew-
ish Agency, the Palestine Founda-
tion Fund, the Jewish National
Fund and the Mizrachi Palestine
Fund. This represented an in-
crease of more than $3,700,000
over the expenditures for the
some period of the previous year,
indicating the greatly increased
needs in Palestine for rescue in
wartime and for reconstruction
in peace.
The adjustment program car-
ried on by the National Refugee
Service in behalf of the 215,000
Jewish refugees in the United
States has made them a valuable
asset to the American way of
life. The NRS bears important
wartime responsibilities for the
sinterpretation of alien regula-
tions to refugees and to local
community agencies, as well as
for the interpretation of the
problems of refugees to our gov-
ernment.
Today these refugees are con-
tributing their special skills and
training as well as their very
lives to the all-out war effort on
the home and battlefronts. The
NRS has created special files to
meet government requests for
chemists, translators, teachers
and scientists. It has granted
loans to individuals to enable
them to start in business or set-
tle on farms. It has provided
retraining for over-age and phys-
ically handicapped newcomers who
are being placed in hospitals in
outlying sections of the country
where there is a great need of
their specialized services.

Season's Greetings and
Best Wishes

With the establishment of the
Emergency Refugee Shelter at
Fort Ontario in New York, NRS
is providing a variety of services
to the 984 refugees from 1-1
European countries who are be-
ing housed there for the duration
of the war. As the Allies liber-
ate more territory, NRS is called
upon for information concerning
the whereabouts of relatives and
friends overseas.
To meet this growing need, the
NRS has cooperated in the es-
tablishment of a Central Loca-
tion Index which contains infor-
mation about refugees in this
country, overseas as well as their
friends and relatives here. This
newly created index will have at
its disposal the coordinated facili-
ties of the International Red
Cross and other resources abroad.
Thus the NRS will be in a posi-
tion to help materially in reunit-
ing families scattered as a result
of war.
Almost daily the needs of th:i
agencies of the United Jewish
Appeal grow larger as new op-
portunities for rescue are opened
up. In the first six months of
1944 alone the Joint Distribu-
tion Committee, United Palestine
Appeal and National Refugee
Service had expenditures totaling
more than $20,600,000. The na-
tional quota of $32,000,000 will
obviously be sufficient to meet
only the minimum requirements
of these agencies.
The situation on the rescue
front, as on the military front,
may be described as fluid at the
present time. But as the clouds
of darkness are dispelled by bril-
liant Allied victories, many poc-

fronts in Libya and Greece and
Italy. We salute the members
of the Jewish Undergraund, who
in every occupied area, have
fought against overwhelming
odds with the anonymity of mar-
tyrs. The thought of what they
have done for the sanctification
of the Name is coupled with re-
membrance of the silent dead,
whose last words were smothered
in eternal darkness
is be-
s whose
bodies were ground to dust and
scattered to the winds; these we

on every battlefield, wearing the of Universal Peace -

with pride the great spirit of the
soldiers from the Jewish Nation-

delible record on the fighting

kets of hitherto isolated Jews
are being reunited with the free
Jewish communities and they
must be given every opportunity
for complete restoration. The
fact that both the Joint Distri-

ish Agency for Palestine have
trained special staffs of social
workers to be attached to
UNRRA for relief and rehabili-
tation work in European and Mid-
dle Eastern countries indicates
that the agencies of the United
Jewish Appeal are cognizant of
the special responsibilities that
will devolve upon them in meet-

will be the task of the Jews of
the United States to help them
shoulder those responsibilities so
that days and years of misery
and wandering may be ended and
the new era of revival and free-
dom may be speedily brought in-
to being.
