line countries in Europe and North Africa by
July 31 with the aid of United Jewish Appeal

Israel, on a UJA-financed rescue ship from
Eastern Europe. UPPER LEFT: A family from
Iraq enjoys a meal in the Maabarali of Kadima,
outdoors to avoid stuffiness of a crowded tent.

others wait for the planes for which the United
Jewish Appeal seeks funds to bring them to
Israel. These Jews have only until May 31.
Their future must be decided in the next kw
weeks. UPPER RIGHT: Iraq Jews, only re-
cently arrived in Israel stripped of all pos-
t sessions, work on a new water tank for the
Kadima settlement. The United Jewish Appeal
must immediately finance building of 20,000
temporary housing units to afford shelter for
newcomers arriving at the rate of more than
13,000 monthly. UJA this year requires a mini-
mum of $203,684,577 for support of the United
Palestine Appeal, Joint Distribution Committee
and United Service for New Americans, con-
stituent agencies of the UJA.
