Jews who wait, with mingled terror and hope, for their turn to go to. Israel
from Eastern Europe and Moslem countries.
American Jews can't call it quits: at this crucial point.
But consider this: 120,000 more wait to be saved in 1951. In Israel,
20,000 housing- units must be built for them now, land must be reclaimed,
crops increased to feed Israel's new citizens. At the same time, 400,000 must
be kept alive in Eastern Europe and Moslem lands, and 20,000 helped to
reach the U.S. before the end of October.
These final days of the campaign in your community are the crucial
ones. Now is your only chance — and theirs. Today, tomorrow, you can
help decide their fate — freedom or continued oppression.
Cash is needed to save them all. If you've made a pledge, pay that
pledge now.. If you're a campaign worker, go through your cards again
— call on every prospect. Tell your family, your friends, your neighbors
— this is no time to let up!
Consider what American Jews have helped to do in the first four months
of this year alone: No less than 80,000 human beings have been s brought to
safety •in Israel from lands of darkness and danger.
We're not finished yet. The campaign isn't over. So let's make every
day count -- for them. Give cash and get cash. Let's give them their start
by doing our part now.
