of the Austrian government to include a fund in the country's
budget.
Payment from this fund, the Chancellor emphasized, will be
made to victims of Nazism in a lump sum to be decided upon in
each case in accordance with the degree of the need of the appli-
cant. The Austrian cabinet will now consider composition of a
board of trustees of the fund. It is understood that the Jewish
Committee for Claims on Austria will be consulted on persons to
be named as trustees.
The long drawn out negotiations between the Austrian govern-
, ment and world Jewish organizations for compensation for Jewish
victims of Nazism in Austria came to an end when Dr. Goldmann,
accompanied by Moses W. Beckelman, head of the Jewish negotia-
tions delegation, arrived. here and met with Chancellor Raab, Vice
Chancellor Adolph Schaerf and Finance Minister Reinhardt Ka-
mitz. Dr. Emil Maurer, president of the Federation of Jewish Com-
munities of Austria, attended the meeting at which the settlement
was reached.
In a statement to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Dr. Gold-
mann said that the settlement is "fair and acceptable to world
Jewry."
Dr. Goldmann estimated that between 15,000 and 17,000 per-
sons will benefit from the settlement. He said that one-third of
the prospective beneficiaries now live in Israel, many thousands
more in Britain and others in the United States and South America.
He credited the cooperation of all Jewish groups, including
those in Austria, with bringing about the settlement. He also
praised the interest displayed by the Big Powers in securing a
fair settlement for the Jews and lauded the indirect assistance
given by the Israel Foreign Ministry and by Israel's consul here,
Arie Eshel. He singled out for special praise Dr. Nehemiah Robin-
son, member of the Jewish negotiating group, whose role in the
negotiations he called excellent.
MEXICO CITY (JTA)—A split
within the General Zionist Or-
ganization of Mexico deepened
here with the announcement that
another section of the centrist
movement was joining the newly-
organized Progressive Party.
The announcement, made in the
form of a statement published in
the Yiddish press, was by the
General Zionist . youth group
Hanoar Hazioni, which walked
out en masse to join the new
group. Earlier, also in press state-
ments, more than 100 members
of the General Zionist Organiza-
tion had announced their with-
drawal and affiliation with the
Progressive movement.
Detroiters Badly
Whipped By Long
Horse Cane Attcli
It happens every summer right
in Detroit, right under our noses.
Detroiters by the thousands are
whipped into incapacitation by
severe horse cane attacks. Their
eyes are left puffed, their noses
run and their heads ache to dis-
traction. They can't work or sleep.
They look for help in vain, but
in Detroit there is no help to be
had.
The smart ones find relief for
hay fever at Omena Inn, in the
heart of Northern Michigan's pol-
len-free area. For at Omena Inn
there is no horse cane, Roman
wormwood, hogweed, bitterweea,
ragweed . . . or what ever name
you wish to give to the plant
with greenish flowers whose pol-
len is a prolific source of hay
-fever.
"Hundreds of hay fever suffer-
ers_ from every corner of the na-
tion find a haven at Omena Inn
every year," say Mr. and 'Mrs.
Landis, owners of the famous
resort on beautiful Grand Trav-
erse Bay. "One of the prime
considerations in selecting a site
for our resort 11 years ago was
its location in the center of
Northern Michigan's pollen-free
area."
Mr. and Mrs. Landis point out
that hay fever is the major blight
of summer vacations. "Whatever
the attraction, guests cannot be
entertained if they do not feel
well,"

TEL AVIV—The Yarkon-Negev
pipe line, Israel's greatest irriga-
tion project which costs more
than $30,000,000—most of which
was supplied by Jewish Agency
from funds received from United
Jewish Appeal in the United
States—was inaugurated here at
an impressive ceremony attended
by leaders of the Israel govern-
ment, New York's Governor W.
Averell Harriman, representa-
tives of 17 Jewish communities in
the United States a n d many
Israel dignitaries. The pipeline is
66 miles long.
The event was marked by color-
ful mass performances of "hymn
to water" in which actors from
all,. Israel theaters, assisted by
choirs and dancing groups, par-
ticipated. The festive ceremony
took place at sources of the Yar-
kon river near Rosh Hayin. The
summit of the festivity was
reached when Abraham Harzfeld,
veteran Israel farmer who de-
voted most of his life to the
development of Jewish agricul-
ture in Palestine under the Brit-
ish mandate, was given the honor
to push the button operating the
pumping stations, thereby allow-
ing waters of Yarkon's wells. to
flow into the pipe line.
The new water line will con-
nect about 200 settlements. It
constitutes the first half of the
135-mile pipe line from north
of Tel Aviv along the coastal
area to the arid Negev. When the
whole pipe line is completed in
