THE JEWISH NEWS

Page Eight

:;?:••••

OMORROW morning when you're shaving in
your nice, warm bathroom . . . with hot run-
ning water, fluffy towels on the rack ... look at your-
self and think of the phenomenal luck Fate has
handed you.

suffering, and your good fortune, -you should lend
them a helping hand?

Give witha willing heart. Give not just spare money,
but bread money.

The easiest, quickest way to help is with money. And
the time to do it is Now—through the United Jewish
Appeal.

Give in the thought that if you weren't lucky enough
to be in this country you wouldn't have anything
to give!

Here you are . . . safe, eating well, your children
alive, and warmed by the greatest possession on
earth—FREEDOM!

The United Jewish Appeal needs $100,000,000.
That means that every Jew in America will have to
give with unprecedented generosity if we are to
meet this necessary and heroic quota.

T

Do you ever think how different this would be if
your father decided to stay in Europe instead of
coming here?

If you were still alive, you and your children would
probably be in rags, starving, sleeping in a cellar (if
you could find a cellar), your body numb with cold,
lonely, hopeless, looking over your shoulder for the
next pogrom, crying to God "why halt Thou forsaken

ine?"

Isn't it only just, that in the light of your brother?

The plight of the remaining European Jews is far;
far worse than that of other war victims. Most of
them are not receiving any aid from intergovern-
mental sources. They do not ask for preferential
treatment They hope merely to be raised to the level
of survival. They cry outto us, not for special favors,

but for life itself.

It's up to you to see it through. Give and help your
unluckier brothers. Give and save their • children.

your brothers starve . . . and live in fear?
