This remark was made with regard to the ORT, the Agency pointed out, on the basis of a statement by Dr. Aaron Synga- lowsky, ORT leader, in Johan- nesburg, printed in the South African Zionist Record on June 3, to the effect that "the ORT trained 70 percent of Israel's skilled workers and now begins to develop agriculture, especial- ly mechanifed agriculture." This statement by Dr. Syngalowsky shows that he used such remarks for propaganda purposes, the Jewish Agency declared, adding that "it is clear that Dobkin in- tended to stress Dr. Syngalow- sky's exaggeration."
