Launch $57,000,000 Bond Drive

In response to a call from heads
of the government. of Israel for
aid to strengthen the economic
defenses of Israel, the national
leadership conference for Israel
bonds held in New York inau-
gurated a campaign to raise
$51,000,000 in the next' four
months through Israel bonds for
industrial and agricultural de-
velopment.
Following an address by Am-
bassador Abba S. Eban of Israel,
the 400 Jewish leaders from the
United States and Canada acted
to launch an intensive drive for
the sale of Israel bonds in North
and Latin American countries,
Holland, Switzerland and Bel-
gium.
David Horowitz, Israel's fin-
ancial expert, who was recently
named Governor of the newly-
established Bank of Israel, out-
lined the economic objectives of
his country.
Mr. Horowitz listed the "four
main objectives of all economic
policy in Israel":
"1. Transfer of large seg-
ments of Jewish population
from the Diaspora into Israel.
"2. Economic absorption
and integration of this new
population.
"3. Transformation of this
transplanted population ac-
cording to the needs of the
country.
"4. Transformation of the
country, and the expansion of
its productive facilities by a
large- scale application of
capital and skill."
Twenty percent of the funds
used in the Development Bud-
get, Mr. Horowitz said, has been
derived from the State of Israel
Bond Issue.

Of 'Christian Amendment'

The so-called "Christian
Amendment" to the U. S. Con-
stitution has, for all practical
purposes, been rejected by the
Senate Judiciary Committee and
may be considered a dead issue,
according to Dr. David Petergor-
sky, executive director of the
American Jewish Congress.
By failing to act before the
close of Congress, the Senate
group, in elect, killed the pro-
posal to amend the Constitution
to recognize "the law and au-
thority of Jesus Christ, Saviour
and Ruler of Nations."
