Prolific Soils from Desert Land;
That's the Miracle of Mekorot
The conversion of vast portions
of Palestine's desert land into
blossoming garden spots is fast
becoming a reality through the
efforts of Mekorot, the Ilistadrut
Water Company.
Founded in 1935 in cooperation
with other national agencies, Me-
korot has set as one of its post
war responsibilities the redemp-
tion of some 7 to R million dunams
(between 1% and 2 million acres)
of desolate Palestinian land into
agricultural soil for colonization
purposes. Approximately 300 thou-
sand families could be settled on
these vast tracts.
Realizing that Palestine's 6
months of rainfall is unevenly dis-
tributed, the company is endea-
voring to produce a central water
supply for the country. It has
discovered that below the waste-
lands are sources of subterranean
Major Judah Nadich, former
senior chaplain in the European
Theatre of Operations and erst-
while European adviser on Jewish
affairs to General Dwight Eisen-
hower, will be the principal
speaker at a city-wide conference
in the Brown Memorial Chapel
at Temple Beth El. Tuesday, Feb.
12, at 2:15 p. m., at which time
formal /organization of the
Women's Division of the Jewish
Welfare Federation of Detroit will
be effected.
The United Jewish Appeal is
about to conduct a $100,000,000
campaign for refugees, overseas
needs and Palestine, and the Jew-
ish community of Detroit has ac-
cepted a $2,000,000 quota as its
share of the national goal.
A new plan proposing reorgani-
zation of the entire Detroit Ser-
vice Group, and the Federation
itself, provides for a continuing
concern on the part of all Jewish
women for the causes and agencies
supported by Federation.
Appropriate provisional com-
mittees have been at work pre-
paring material to submit to the
city-wide conference which will
serve to enlist the time and re-
sources of the women of the
community for total Jewish com-
munity needs
In the last year before the war
of the independent Allied Jewish
Campaign, more than 6,000 women
made contributions and some 1,200
women participated as campaign
workers. Many more are expected
under the new plan.
