At the Histadrut campaign rally last
Sunday were, left to right, seated, ISAAC
HAMLIN, national secretary of Hista-
drut campaigns, and MORRIS LIEBER-
MAN, chairman of the Detroit drive;
standing, HARRY SCHUMER and LOUIS
LEVINE, chairman of organizations.
Isaac Hamlin, national secretary of His-
tadrut campaigns, told more than 100 rep-
resentatives of the Detroit $300,000 Hista-
drut drive last Sunday that their continued
sup p or t for Israel and the Histadrut
was vital to the success of the productivi_
ration of newcomers to Israel.
"The towns and cities of Europe after
which your organizations are named are
gone. Your remaining relatives and friends
are the newcomers of Israel. You must
continue to help put them back on their
feet, physically and spiritually; and the
major agency which helps them find jobs,
trains them and even creates employment
opportunities fbr them is the Histadrut,"
Hamlin declared.
"The small, cooperative industrial shops
being established by the Histadrut with
funds from the American Histadrut Cam-
paign are one of the greatest instruments
for putting the newcomers on their feet
and building up important sectors of the
country," Hamlin told the workers. "In the
125 cooperatives now being established,
thousands of newcomers are getting their
first chance to learn a productive trade
and regain their self respect. If they spoil
the material or if they do not work fast,
they are not discharged. They are helped
through these first, difficult months in
their adjustment. In a practical, construc-
tive way, they are taught to shed their
fears and suspicions of their fellow Jews
and taught the full meaning of coopera-
tion and working together."
Hamlin concluded with the explana-
tion that Histadrut's primary job is that
of training and productivizing the thou-
sands of newcomers for life in Israel.
"When you support the United Jewish Ap-
peal, you are helping to supply the funds
to bring the newcomers to Israel, main-
tain them in the temporary . camps, and
help the Jewish Agency develop qae land
and launch hundreds of new settlements.
Histadrut Campaign funds help prepare
the newcomers so they will be ready to
become self-supporting," he explained.
Louis Levine, chairman of the organi-
zations division, told the delegates that,
with $30,000 already reported for the di-
vision, the pace of solicitation must be in-
creased in the remaining weeks. "Cover
every card," he urged the delegates, re-
porting that more than 100 new contribu-
tors were included in the week's report.
M. Taich, director of organizations,
praised the efforts of the following groups
for the week:
Galican Aid Society; Detroit Ladies Aid
Society; Primrose Benevolent Society;
Jewish Center Friendship, Club one; Tur-
over Aid Society; Select Social Club.
Individual workers outstanding for their
Week's efforts include:
J. L. Wolock, scrap dealer's division;
N. Linden, Branch 137, Farband; Ida Lowe,
Branch 7, LZOA; Sam Wasserman, Branch
552, Farband; Jack Glazer, Branch 2, LZOA
and M. Goldsmith, Branch 19, Farband.
Pupils ,of the Sholem Aleichem Schools
were the first of the children's group to re-
port, with gifts of $170 announced.
Additional Histadrut evenings sched-
uled for the week include: Mlaver Urn-
gegend Verein, Feb. ,12, Workmens Circle;
Vinitzer Verein, Feb. 13, Assembly Hall;

of the quantities of the items
listed above.

ent regular packages at $13 and.

amounts of all items in the reg-
ular packages plus applesauce,

Israel government regulations
permit only one package per

ber of a family in Israel. Tour-
ists, however, are allowed to
take as many package gift cer-
tificates for their own personal
use in Israel as they wish. The
Zionist office is also accepting
orders for contributions of food
packages by local organizations
and individuals to organiza-
tions, communities, welfare de-
partments of cities, etc., in Is-
rael.
Israel postal regulations per-
mit only four pounds of food to
be sent there per month by U.
S. residents without an import
license obtained by the recipient
in Israel. Service for Palestine
has a general import license
obtained by the recipient in Is-
rael. Service for Palestine has a
general import license permit-
ting larger amounts to be sent.
Gift certificates for the pack-
ages are available at the Zionist
Office, 1031 Penobscot Bldg.,
WO. 5-1484. The donor mails
the certificate to the recipient
in Israel, who exchanges it for
