SOMETHING NO MONEY CAN BUY

The State of Israel Bonds now being offered are the most unusual securities in the history of the

world.

For by investing in these Bonds, you can expect to receive rare moral and spiritual rewards, as well as
financial ones. You can, in fact, look forward to a kind of gratification you do not expect in financial matters.

On the one hand, your money will be earning a substantial 3 3 % interest on Coupon Bonds. It will be,
invested in productive enterprises like the potash industry, chemical industry, textile industry—the
expansion of electric power—the irrigation of new farmlands.
But, most important, is what the result of all these investments will be. It will help build a vibrant
new life for an even greater number of those people who have worked, fought, and bled for their ideals.
It will help solidify a new nation which already has established itself as an important democratic
outpost in the Middle East. It will help create the bread of liberty and the wine of happiness for a.
people who know how to value them.
Judge Israel Bonds by their soundness as an investment—that is only common ea. But also,
remember the moral satisfaction they offer you—something no money can buy.

Further information, particularly financial information, is contained

in the Registration Statement flied with the Commission and in el

more complete Prospectus which must be furnished to each purr,

chaser and is obtainable from the undersigned.

DAVID STOTT BLDG,, DETROOT

The State of Israel $500,000,000 Bond Issue is
intended to promote the economic development
of the Stare. The proceeds of the Bond Issue are
to be used for the purchase of machinery, raw
materials, equipment and other items designed
to increase the country's productive facilities so
that it may earn and save foreign currency. Of
the total amount, $205,000,000 is to be allo-
cated for investment in the fields of industry and
power. The sum of $130,000,000 has been
designated for agricultural projects; $40,000,000
for the development of harbors, shipping and
railroads; $45,000,000 for trade and services
including the development of the tourist in-
dustry; and $30,000,000 for the establishment ,
of a government mortgage bank for housing.
The balance, after payment of the expenses
of the issue, is to serve as a reserve for unantici.i
pated projects of for increased expenditures foe,
the designated projects.
The Government's economic development
program involves a total projected expenditure of
$1,500,000,000, of which $500,000,000 is to
be provided by Israel and other countries, and
the balance is to be obtained in the United States.
The $500,000,000 State of Israel Bond Issue is
the largest single source of funds for this pro-,
gram.
With immigration proceeding at the rate
of 200,000 a year, Israel requires capital imports
meet
the large investment necessary to create
to
permanent employment opportunities and hous-
ing for the newcomers. A balanced and mature ,
economy will as a rule produce enough to cover
the consumptive needs of its population and to
provide for some further investment to increase
productivity. But under the best conditions, cur-
rent production cannot begin to supply the huge
capital needs of a population that is increasing
at the enormous rate experienced by Israel. Pales-
tine and Israel, therefore, have always had an
adverse trade balance—like many young coun-
tries facing immigration and development tasks,
including the United States, Australia and New
Zealand. As immigration increased, so did the
adverse trade balance. The import surplus served
to meet the investment needs of the economy.'
For 1949 receipts on current account were (ex-'
pressed in Israel Pounds, I.L.) I.L. 20,600,000'
and payments, I.L. 94,100,000. For 1950 re- ,
ceipts on current account were I.L. 23,800.000
and payments, I.L. 113,400,000.
It is one of the major purposes of the Bond
Issue to improve Israel's balance of trade through
the establishment of new industrial and agricul-
tural enterprises and through the expansion of
production for export as well as for home con.;
sumpcion.
As of December 31, 1950, the funded debt
was I.L 114,200,000 and the floating debt.
I.L. 1,300,000. The figures do not include any
Treasury Bills, because of their relationship to
the Special Defense Budget which has not been
disclosed for security reasons.
Israel has never at any time defaulted upon
the payment of principal or interest on any debt.
The budgets of the Government reflect the
objectives of the State of Israel to provide for the
immigration and absorption of a large number
of Jews. From May 15, 1948 to March 31, 1949,
receipts were I.L. 28,885,000 and expenditures,
I.L. 27,529,000. From April 1, 1949 to March
31, 1950, receipts were I.L. 92,876,000 and
expenditures I.L. 93,800,000. From April 1,
1950 to January 31, 1951, receipts were I.L.
113,473,000 and expenditures I.L. 112,087,000.
These figures do not include Special Defense
Budget expenditures or receipts from internal
loans financing same.
The American Financial and Development
Corporation for Israel with headquarters at 120
Broadway, New York 5, New York, is the prin-
cipal underwriter for the State of Israel Bond
Issue. The commissions or discounts are not to
exceed 31/2%.
