came from Harry Becker in the
amount of $2,000.
This gift was secured by Nor-
man Cottler, for the past 10 years
one of the most active workers
for the Gewerkshaften and an
zIctive leader .in the Arlazaroff
branch of Jewish National Work-
ers' Alliance. Mr. Cottler also
secured a doubled pledge from
Pinsker Progressive Aid Society.
Commenting on Mr. Becker's
gift, Mr. Cottler praised the donor
of the largest gift as a business
man of whom the community
is proud. He pointed out that
Mr. Becker was one of the largest
contributors to the Jewish Hos-
pital and to the Jewish National
Fund Ladies' Auxiliary drive and
stated that his generosity in non-
Jewish as well as Jewish gifts
has earned for him the respect of
the entire city.. He added:
"Mr. Becker was one of the
largest purchasers of War Bonds
in the Union Produce Terminal
'and headed the Red Cross Drive
there. He is recognized as a
'square shooter' by the hundreds
of 'people with whom he does
business. He hopes to visit Pal-
estine shortly so he can see for
himself what the Histadrut is do-
ing there in building a Jewish
Home."
Isaac Franck, director of the
Jewish Community Council, will 3754 Monterey, on the subject,
