enaniel States U. S. Aid. Program
To Help House Immigrants in Israel
AVIV, (JTA)—The United
States aid program is "interest-
ed in transferring the tent
dwellers of the immigration
camps to permanent housing be-
fore the rainy season, in sup-
plying food and in developing
irrigation schemes and social
welfare functions," Bruce Mc-
Daniel, director of the U. S.
Technical Cooperation Adminis-
tration, said at Nathanya.
The TCA administrator, wind-
ing up a two-day tour of proj-
ects and enterprises launched
with funds from the American
grant-in-aid to Israel and the
counterpart funds supplied by
Israel, said that "as in the past,
we will continue to cooperate
with the Israel Government for
the development of the coun-
try."
Mr. McDaniel told reporters
here that Israel's hospital ca-
pacity of 317 beds per 100,000
population was regarded as too
low. He said that 900,000 pounds
had been released from counter-
parts funds for erection of pre-
fabricated hospital units import-
ed from Finland. Of this amount,
200,000 pounds was for hospitals
in Nathanya to serve the west-
ern Galilee and in Poria for the
eastern Galilee.
For housing needs, he said,
$2,400,000 had been appropriated
from the grant-in-aid and 2,500,-
000 pounds would be released
from counterpart funds for the
erection of 1,100 Finnish pre-cut
wooden housing units and 1,700
prefabricated Austrian houses.
'rk!;L
These, he said, would replace
2,800 tents. Transfer of immi-
grants to permanent housing, he
saitvvas regarded as a primary
goal of the government.
The TCA administrator visited
the Kfar Jona housing project
where 115 wooden houses have
been constructed to house 500
people who formerly lived in 150
tents in the Beitlid immigrant
camp and who suffered severely
in last winter's torrential storms.
Garden plots are attached to
each house.
For irrigation projects intend-
ed to increase agricultural° pro-
duction, the grant-in-aid pro-
gram provided more than $2,-
000,000 in pipe, fittings and re-
lated materials, Mr. McDaniel
said. Counterpart funds released
to facilitate local projects
reach 700,000 pounds.
Counterpart funds are also
being used, he revealed, for the
re-education of immigrant chil-
dren and adjustment of youth to
productivity. The sum of 100,000
pounds has been released from
counterpart funds for this, he
said, and 40,000 pounds is being
released to maintain a children's
home at Kfar Hassidim.

of thousands of Israelis observed
the most solemn holy day of the
Jewish religion. The diplomatic
corps had requested its members
not to use motor vehicles during
the Day of Atonement and the
streets of Israel's cities were
completely bare of traffic.
(It was reported from Damas-
cus that the Jews there had been
compelled by the Shishakly re-
gime to violate the Holy Day -by
transmitting prayers over the
Syrian radio's Hebrew hours.)
(From Cairo it was reported
that Egyptian Premier General
Mohammed Naguib visited the
great synagogue there and greet-
ed Chief Rabbi Chaim Nahoum.)

ter to Rep. Din-

Rep. Dingell stated:
"It was no accident that when
the Chatham amendment was
offered on the floor of the House

23, you were the first in the
entire House to stand up for
Israel, just as you were the first
to introduce grant-in-aid legis-
lation in 1951.
"We who want to help Israel,
give sanctuary to the homeless
Jewish refugees and to help
build the new state into a strong
! democratic outpost for the free
world, have reason to be pleased
by the House action on the Near
East, a decision to which you
; have made significf. nt contribu-
tions by your consistent and ac-
I tive support."
