1951 Allied Jewish Campaign in

out in a Pass-

Basle y issued this week.
"Give more
to keep up the level of work,"
Kasle urged. "Give still more
to meet the increased need."
Opening his message, Kasle
extended best wishes for the
Passover holiday to all members
of the Jewish community.
"It is fitting," he said, 'that
we modern descendants of the
Jews who made the difficult
journey through the desert to the
Promised Land should observe
Passover now by dedicating our-
selves to the campaign — a great
project which brings our breth-
ern from Europe and the Moslem
countries to Israel, the land no
longer promised but at last
secured."
Kasle reminded contributors of
the wide scope of the campaign,
stressing that it is the one com-
munity philanthropic drive that
provides for all the causes—here
in Detroit, nationally and over-
seas — that are important "to the
general welfare of the . Jewish
people."
"One gift," Kasle emphasized,
"if it is a good gift, provides
for a world of work. Remember
how many causes you are sup-

GREETINGS*
TEL AVIV—(WNS)—The He-
brew newspaper "Haaretz" re-
cently carried a series of stun-
ning reports about Jewish life
in Biro Bidjan.
According to the report, the
so-called Jewish autonomous re-
gion in Biro Bidjan has a popula-
tion of 140,000 people, 30 per cent
of which is Jewish.
During 1949-50 there was a
wave of liquidations among com-
munists, especially Jewish com-
,
munists.
Among the
More than 50,000 Jews serving with the American armed forces at home and abroad, will
observe Passover with ' all the trimmings as a result of world-wide arrangements com-
pleted months ago by the National Jewish Welfare Board. Seders like those shown in
these photos will be held from Korea to Alaska, from Panama to Germany and at all
military installations and veterans' hospitals in continental United States.

had been closed down.
Key positions formerly held by
Jews have been turned over to

NEW YORK— (WNS) —The
first of a Special series of three
Eternal Light festival programs
produced in Israel, and prepared
under the 'auspices of the Jew
ish Theological Seminary of
America, was launched here
when the coast-to-coast network
of the National Broadcasting Co.
in the U. S. and Kol Zion in
Israel simultaneously transmitted
the program.
The initial broadcast, sched-
uled in observance of the Pass-
over holiday, was written and
produced in Israel.
An American radio audience
of about six million heard the
broadcast in English, while list-
eners to Kol Zion in Israel and
the Middle East heard the drama
in Hebrew and English.
Plans for the special Eternal
Light festival series originated
at the Seminary over a year
ago, as a means of strengthen-
ing the spiritual and cultural
ties between the two nations.
