Refugees Trek to Palestine;
Aided by American Jewry

With the United Nations preparing for the final blow
against the Axis, with an invasion of Nazi-held Europe, tens
of thousands of Jews look to Palestine as their major hope of
escape from oppression.

Thousands are trekking their way to Palestine. The up-
per photograph shows a portion of the group of 858 boys and
girls who began to feel the firm earth of Eretz Israel as a
result of efforts of the United Palestine Appeal and the Joint
Distribution Committee, Hadassah's Youth Aliyah movement,
Pioneer Women's Organization, Zionist Organization of
America and National Labor Committee for Palestine.

The center picture shows a member of Histadrut, Jewish
Federation of Labor in Palestine, who, home on furlough
from the Italian front where he serves with the British
forces, is relaxing with children in his KibbutZ, the co-opera- -
tive Palestine settlement. Histadrut receives its support from
the Gewerkshaften drive of the National Labor Committee,
which opens here this Sunday with a conference at the
Shaarey Zedek.

Jewish women recruits of the Auxiliary Territorial
Service in Palestine are shown in the lower photograph giv-
ing their first salute. They are among the 135,000 Jewish men
and women who have registered for war service in Palestine.

Local campaign leaders confident that sum will be obtained . • . Baruch
Zuckerman and Philip Adler to address conference of workers and repre-
sentatives of local groups at Shaarey Zedek . Committees to submit
reports and outline plans for further efforts.
