Canadian Zionists Pledge Million
Dollars for Buying Palestine Land

TORONTO (JTA) — A four-year
campaign for $1,000,000 for the pur-
chase of land in Palestine was
proclaimed here at the opening of
the 28th national convention of the
Zionist Organization of Canada, in
reply to an appeal by Eliezer Kap-
lan, treasurer of the Jewish Agen-
cy, for greater contributions to the
development of the Jewish home-
land. Canadian Jews were also
urged to contribute manpower, in
the form of chalutzim, to the up-
building of Palestine.
Sir Ernest Flavelle, chairman
of the World Christian Committee
for Palestine, told the 500 dele-
gates that the debt owed by the
Christian world to the Jews should
be repaid by making it possible for
the Jews to live in freedom and
dignity in their own homeland. He
contrasted the war-time contribu-
tions of the Jews and the Arabs,
and expressed the hope that even-
tually a Jewish state will be es-
tablished as part of the British
Commonwealth.
A report to the convention by
the national director of the United
Palestine Appeal of Canada reveal-
ed that 18,000 of the dominion's
40,000 Jewish families last year
contributed to the UPA, donating
a total exceeding $686,000. Mrs. A.
Raginsky, president of the Cana-
dian Hadassah, reported that her
organization now has 9,000 mem-
bers in 225 towns and villages
throughout the country.

Most of the 8000 Jews in Berlin Are
Over 50; Few Youths Survive

BERLIN, (JTA) — Sixty per-
cent of the 8,000 members of the
Jewish community here are over
the age of 50 and only five percent
are under 18, Erich Nelhams, pres-
ident of the Jewish Council has
revealed. He added that there were
25 doctors and 15 lawyers among
the members.
Nelhams said that the com-
munity has provided 10,000 meals,
given clothing to thousands of
Jews returning home, and distrib-
uted grants of from 500 to 2,000
marks among the destitute who
were unable to earn a living. The
community, he added, runs a hos-
pital of 350 beds and a nursery of
60 orphans. These two institutions
care for Jews and non-Jews.
Expenses thus far have been
covered by a loan of 10,000 marks
as well as a non-recurrent contri-
bution by the city council of 150,-
000 marks, Nelhams said. The city
also has four prayer houses, in-
cluding three reconstructed syn-
agogues, Nelhams concluded.

ADAUNG SAL has reached the height
of her social career—if those neck ring-
lets mean anything. And likewise, a good
many of today's homes have reached the
height of their electrical careers if there
isn't room for one more electrical appli-
ance without overloading the circuits and
blowing fuses. If your home is just
getting by with makeshift devices, such as
extension cords or octopus plugs, it will
be still worse tomorrow when that new
electric dishwasher, frozen-food unit,
automatic laundry or television set is
added to an already-overworked electri-
cal system. To help you enjoy tomorrow's
electrical living, have your home checked
for adequate wiring. Your home may be
an old one, but it can hold all the electrical
conveniences of a new one—with ade-
quate wiring. And if you are planning on
building or buying a new home, it's
doubly important to see to it that your
;some is adequately wired for all the
good things electricity can give y ou.

T"

This is one of a serics of
advertisements prepare•1 in
cooperation with the Electri-
cal Association of Detroit in
the interest of insuring ade-
quate wiring for every home
in this area. Be sure your
home is properly wired.
