Argentina Seen
Recognizing Israel

Peron Statements
on Amity Quoted

NEW YORK—The hope that
Arge,ntine will shortly recog-
nize th* government of Israel
was voiced by Egon Glucks-
mann, president of the General
Zionist Organization of Latin
America.
In an interview, Glucksmann
cited President Juan Peron's
oft-repeated statement that un-
der his regime "there is no anti-
Semitism in Argentina." On the
con t r a r y, Glucksmann said,
President Peron was desirous of
seeing "all facilities for a good
life placed at the disposal of
the Jewish population in Argen-
tina."
Glucksmann is active in every
phase of Jewish life in Latin
America. In Argentina, he is
vice president of the Argentina
Fed•ration of General Zionists
and of the Argentine United
Jewish Appeal.
"Argentina and Israel are
both growing countries," said
Glucksmann, adding, "there is
every reason to believe that
they will be of mutual help to
each other, both in trade and
industrial relations, as well as
cult orally."
Mcny prominent Argentine
businessmen, Mr. Glucksmann
pointed out, both Jews and non-
Jews, are interested in investing
their capital in Israel's indus-
trial future, which they see as
"the new undeveloped frontier
in the world of industry."

Isaac Ben ivi Biography
is Story of Israel's Building

NEW YORK—Tall and rangy
Isaac Ben Zvi — whose prototype
can be found on the western
plains of the United States —
stepped off a KLM Dutch Airlines
plane at Idlewild Airport and
made his way into the heart of
American Jewry.
Ben Zvi, president of the Vaad
Leumi (Jewish National Council

er—is the story of the upbuilding
of the Jewish State. He was born
in Poltawa, Russia, in 1884, and
became a Zionist, as he puts it,
"almost as soon as I could talk."
He began saving money for his
first trip to Palestine, while
studying at Kiev University.
Teaching Hebrew and Russian to
make extra money, it took him
one year to accumulate 120 rubles
(approximately $35).
"That was all I needed in
1904," he explained. "It took me
to Palestine and lasted three
months and got me a return trip
on a Russian ship, fourth class.
It's a hard way'of doing it, but
that's all right when you're 18."

to All our Relatives and
Friends

Ben Zvi was one of a small
group Of pioneers who moulded
the social, cultural and political
future of the Yishuv. He never
compromised his political con-
victions, with the result that tee
came to know the bitterness of
prison and exile.
Ile fought with the legendary
"Night Watchmen," defending
Jewish settlements against Arah
attack. Ile built settlements in
the swamplands of Palestine and
suffered from malaria.
It was Ben Zvi, working close-
ly with Prime Minister David
Ben Gurion, who organized the

famed Jewish Legion in World
War I.
"The future of Israel lies in
construction, not in conquest," he
told this reporter. ' We have to
prepare a place for many thous-
ands of Jewish immigrants from
Europe and from Arab countries
who are to come and collaborate
with us in creating a home fot
themselves and others.
2 MILLION MORE
"I wish to witness another 2,-
000,000 Jews being gathered into
Israel — we must free the world
of our eternal refugees. We want
peaceful development, both for
ourselves and our neighbors."
Ben Zvi still believes that there
will be a friendly relationship
between "the two Semitic peoples
of the earth."
"But there is no other way but
the way of equality," he said.
"The Arabs must understand they
can dominate Israel no more, just
as Israel has no interest in dom
inating Arabs."

Famed 'Exodus 1947'
Dismantled in Israel

HAIFA (ZOA)—The famous
immigrant ship "Exodus 1947"
is being dismantled in Haifa
harbor and salvaged for scrap.
The ship, which is made of
wood, is supplying a good deal
of this much needed commodity
for Israel's housing program.

BEST WISHES

TOR A JOYOUS HOLIDAY

Seventy-three years ago there was a single Sanders store in
Detroit. Today there are twenty-six in'the metropolitan area—
and others are planned for the near future.
This growth has been possible chiefly because the course
laid down by Grandfather Fred Sanders for that first store
still guides the conduct of the organization. his policy was
plain-spoken, but sound: to make only the highest quality of
products, and to sell them at reasonable prices.
Because Sanders have held steadfastly to that policy, every
Sanders store is a busy store, standing high in the confidence
and respect of its community. And because we prize the con-
fidence and respect of Detroit; you can be sure that every
Sanders product you buy will be as delicious and wholesome
as it can be made.
