Theater Group Praised
For Excellent Dramas

Douglas Views Israel's
Impetus for Democracy

(Continued from Page 1)

Mr. Justice Douglas told of his visit to Israel last year
in the company of his 17-year-old son. Describing his im-
pressions of the Middle East, he drew an interesting pictu
of the strong democracy of Israel against a background
medievalism in neighboring countries. He said that "Isrt
is more like Lincoln's concept of government—of the peor
by the people and for the people," and repeatedly stated the
the great democratic ideals generated by Israel are inspiring
high goals in that entire portion of the world.
"The very presence, the very ideal of Israel is an
impetus towards improving that area of the globe," Mr.
Justice Douglas said.
Paying tribute to Dr. Chaim Weizmann, President of
Israel, and the Jewish state's Prime Minister David Ben-
Gurion, both of whom he had met, Mr. Justice Douglas said
that "they are an honor and a credit to any country for an
important reason: because they are honest, and honesty in
government is the first prerequisite in any democratic
government."
The social and economic experimentation in Israel was
reviewed by the distinguished jurist as an indication of the
high type of democratic idealism in Israel. Stating that the
alternative to a government like Israel in the Middle East
is Russian imperialism, Mr. Justice Douglas asserted that
"ideas such as espoused in Israel should encourage our back-
ing and should tell us where to put our money."
Mr. Justice Douglas told of his conversation at Beth
Yitzhak, near Nathanya, with former Detroiter Max D.
Lipsitz whom he asked why he settled in Israel. Lipsitz,
who was an active Zionist leader before going to Palestine
16 years ago, replied: "I guess it was the call of the blood."
Congratulating the assembly for liberal giving, Mr.
Justice Douglas said "every one has a stake in Israel, that's
why the country is prospering against great obstacles." He
urged uninterrupted interest in the cause as a just approach
to peace.
Rabbi Wise declared that he was extremely proud of
the standards set by UJA and paid tribute to the men and
women in Europe and Israel who are building a new life
for survivors from oppression. He said that the 20,000 to
25,000 homeless who are arriving in Israel every month are
being received there "with song and joy for the first time
they find themselves where they are welcome. The people
in Israel welcome them gladly although it means that they
must share their meager bread, their clothing, their homes
with the newcomers."
"I am very proud of Israel," Dr. Wise said. "Israel has
triumphed over her enemies by her courage, skill and faith.
But the battle is equally as serious in rescuing the survivors
from Nazism. Israel is providing the priceless gift of citi-
zenship for the homeless who are arriving in Israel. All of
us must join in sharing the responsibility of seeing Israel
through all her difficulties."
Holtzman and Berry spoke briefly during the solicita-
tions and pointed out that the funds collected-in Allied Jew-
ish Campaigns have brought high dividends through Israel's
accomplishments.
Mrs. Abraham Cooper led in the singing of the national
anthem and Rabbi Jacob Segal gave the invocation.

Workers in the furniture sec-
tion of the Allied Jewish Cam-
paign are working toward a full
report at their annual breakfast,
11 a.m., Sunday, April 15, at the
Furniture Club, in Hotel De-
troiter.
Among those who are working
with section chairman Louis
Tabashnik are:

article describes the Bond Issue,
and gives some background in-
formation on the problems of
Israel and its plans for economic
expansion and development. It
points out that the Bond Issue
is "the largest foreign bond is-
sue ever floated in the U. S."
and "the start of a three-year
plan of Prime Minister David
Ben-Gurion to raise $1.5 billion
to make the new -nation bade-
pendent economically as well as
politically."
Time describes Israel as a
"three - year - old prodigy." "Is-
rael, the magazine states, "is
already the • most highly indus-
trialized Middle Eastern nation:
one-third of its Jewish working
population is employed in in-.
dustry."
The feature article emphasizes
the role of foreign investors in
Israel. It calls attention to the
factories in Israel established by
Kaiser-FrAzer, Philco, General
Shoe, and General Tire & Rub-
ber.
Time sees the State of Israel
Bond Issue as a continuation of
Israel's policy of encouraging
foreign investments, and consid-
ers the Bond Issue a "switch
from charity to hardheaded fi-
nance."
