Ask Mr. Foster CA. 3-5100 WO. 5-2080-1-2-3 No Directly on the Ocean et 43rd ST., MIAMI BEACH An impressive report of his experiences in Israel was brought here by Reyer Van Zanen, a Fraser, Mich., lumber merchant who previously was introduced to the Zionist move- ment by his friend, Pierre Van Paasen. Mr. Van Zanen was a familiar figure at meetings addressed here by Mr. Van Paassen. While he has visited European coun'- tries on five trips, this was his first visit to Israel. He reported his surprise at finding land which had lain barren for 2,000 years under Arab rule now green and cov- ered with citrus groves. Israel's industry, which has developed new cities out of the rubble of yesteryear, "is a credit to the people's ingenuity and hard work," he said. - Typifying the doggedness of the Israelis, Van Zanen cited the time he saw several villagers digging for water. On their fifth attempt, they struck, but it was salt water. Calmly, he said, they began digging anew. A point which impressed Van Zanen was Israel's law making education compulsory. . His one • big disappointment was in the Holy City of Jerusalem where he found "more faith in a bullet. than in the Lord." - "There is a great division of faith in Jerusalem, and it is there that the hostility of Arab and Jew is most emphasized," he said. Not a Jew, but interested in Zionism for many years, Van Zanen reports that nowhere in all his travels "have I ever been received so willingly or seen such courtesy and good manners as in Israel."

Smaller dams were filled- within shorter periods and considerable water was lost. Negev farmers were jubilant at the timing of the , rains, which broke after the winter crops had been sawed.
