JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Fifty-
five Jews were deported from
Eritrea last Thursday after a
pitched battle in the Latrun de-
tention camp in which all the
Jewish prisoners participated, it
was revealed on Tuesday.
The deportees finally were ov-
erpowered by heavily armed
troops.
Meanwhile, a strike called by
the remaining detainees went in-
to its fourth day with strikers
neither eating, shaving nor mov-
ing from benches. In some set-
tlements wives of families of de-
portees gathered in the settlement
offices and remained there to
protest the government action.
The Hebrew newspapers bit-
terly attacked the deportations.
Davar says the Latrun strikers
have the support of the entire
Yishuv.
Parents of Lost Flier Give $160,000
To JNF; Art Collection Donated
JERUSALEM, (Palcor) .— Two
of 'the largest individual dona-
tions ever made to Keren. Kaye--
meth (Jewish National Fund)
Jewish Palestine's land aquiring
agency, were reported by ,JNF
headquarters here. They include
$160,000 from Mr. and Mrs.
Woolf of Johannesburg, South
Africa, and an invaluable collec- .
tion of p'aintings, donated by an
Austrian Jewish family.
Part of the art collection will
be presented by JNF to muse-
ums in Tel Aviv -and Jerusalem,
and part is to be sold with the
proceeds going to JNF.
Of the Woolf donation, $80,000
was presented in a check to' th•
JNF earmarked for the acquisi-
tion of land in, Hanana, Sharon
valley, for establishment of
dwellings for Jewish ex-service=
men and refugees. The remain-
der is in form of a ,trust fund.
The settlement, to house from
200 to 300 families, will be named
Shchunat Arye, in-memory of the
late Lt. Leon Arye Reuben, elder
son of the donors, who has been
missing since March 1945, when
his Liberator bomber was re-
ported overdue at Undine, Italy.
The late lieutenant, who was
27, was living 'in Palestine at the
outbreak of the war, when he re-
turned to South , Africa to join
the air force. His father previous-
ly made several outstanding con-
tributions to Keren Kayemeth,
one of them, a donation of $25,000
for the acquisition of land for a
settlement, named for the late
President Roosevelt.

PrHERE isn't room for one more in this

... all he does is cause trouble for the players.
And one appliance too many on an elec-
trical circuit may be the cause of that trouble-
some blown fuse. Many people are accus-
tomed to inadequate wiring. But overloaded
circuits are not your only handicap to home
happiness if you have inadequate wiring.
It may mean improper distribution of out-
lets —not having the electric roaster where
you want it, because there's no outlet con-
venient—or maybe Dad can't plug in his
new electric shaver where he wants it. For
tomorrow's electrical living, an adequately
wired home should accommodate a new
frozen-food cabinet, electric range, auto-
matic laundry, electric dishwasher and
many other electrical appliances that will
make living more pleasant and easier. And,
of course, if 'your plans for tomorrow in-
dude a brand-new home, it's doubly im-
portant that your plans and specifications
be checked for adequate Wiring.
