" The delegates adopted a reso- lution pledging increased sup- port of the United Jewish\ Ap- peal, and—in line with decisions reached at the National Plan- ning Conference held in Wash- ington last week-nd — to use their best efforts within their home communities to make available to the UJA a minimum of $50,000,000 before the year's end.
