Do You Know About
'
Moses Successor?
The Jewish News presents herewith
the first part of a quiz based on Joshua,
the Biblical figure, who is the subject
of a recently-published book, "Joshua
the Redeemer,' by Arthur Weyne, a
narrative-biography of the heroic suc-
cessor to Moses. This feature is pre-
sented in cooperation with Behrman
House, publisher of the book.
THE QUESTIONS -
1. What book of the 13ible
deals with the story of Joshua?
Where do we first meet Joshua?
2. From which of the 12 sons
of Jacob was Joshua descended?
3. Who were the Amalekites
and why did the Israelites have
a special score to settle with
them? How did Moses "partici-
pate" in the Rattle of the valley
of Rephidim?
4. How did Moses reward
Joshua for his shattering vic-
tory over Amalek? What signal
honor did Moses confer on
Joshua when he went up into
Mount Sinai to receive the Ten
Commandments?
5. In what famous expedition
did Joshua participate?
6. Did Joshua share the ma-
jority view concerning the Is-
raelites' chances of • conquering
the land of Canaan? Which re-
port carried the day—the ma-
jority or the minority?

Israel Treasury Works
Out Bond Conversion Plan
A more favorable rate of ex-
change for the conversion of
State of Israel dollar bonds to
Israel pounds has been an-
nounced by the Israel Treasury
through the American Financial
and Development Corporation
for Israel, underwriter for the
bond sale.
The new regulations are in-
tended to facilitate conversion -
to pounds for those bondholders
who wish to visit Israel, to in-
vest in Israel industries or to
contribute to philanthropic
agencies in Israel.
The rates set up for bond con-
versions for these purposes, as
announced by Ehud Avriel, di-
rector general of the Israel
Treasury, are:
1. For approved investments
of Israel bonds in Israel indus-
tries or tourists converting bonds
while in Israel one Israel pound
for one dollar.
2.. For contributions of Israel
Bonds to philanthropic agencies
in Israel, $1.40 for one Israel
pound.
Ordinarily, State of Israel
Bonds are neither transferable
nor redeemable prior to May 1,
1954. However, the redemption
in Israel pounds described in
the Treasury regulations can
take place at any time.
1. The sixth book of the Bible,
the Book of Joshua. We first
meet. Joshua in the Book of Ex-
odus when Moses assigns him to
recruit a regiment of Israelites
and lead them in battle against
the ,Amalekites.
2: A member of the half-tribe
Ephraim, Joshua was descended
from Joseph.
3. Old, fierce, and persistent
enemies of Israel. When the Is-
raelites were hastening out of
the reach of the 'Egyptians, it
was Amalek who raided and
slew the stragglers. With Joshua
in command, the Israelites hit Ford Motor Co. Gives
back. Moses took his place on a
, hill several hundred yards to $25,000 Check to UJA
the rear of the battleground
'and remained throughout the
struggle, his arms raised aloft
to God, begging the Lord's aid
for his warriors.
4. By making Joshua his pro-
•tege and preparing him to take
over the leadership when
!Moses' term was ended. Joshua
alone, of all the elders around
Moses, was selected by the chief
to accompany him "up into the
mount of God."
5. He was one of the 12 spies
dispatched by Moses to search
out the country of Canaan and
, "bring back of the fruit of the
6. Only Joshua and Caleb—the
latter of the tribe of Judah—felt
that Canaan was . ripe for Is-
raelite conquest. The other 10,
admitting that it was "a land
flowing with milk •and honey,"
nevertheless presented a terrify-
ing report of the strength and
invincibility of the inhabitants
_bolding that the ill-equipped Is-
raelites would be annihilated if.
they tried to invade the coun-
try. It was the unfortunate ma-
jority report that doomed the
Israelites to their 40 years of
wandering in the desert.
