twee MOM'S NIGHT 0

It's Israel's 8th Independence Day—
and Mom's making a night of it.
She's standing guard on the settle-
ment watchtower.

In hiS hands are late model Com-
munist arms --- swift jet bombers,
sleek fighters and heavy tanks —
weapons for attack.

Put yourself in Mom's place-. It's
not much of a way to celebrate your
country's birth of freedom.

But on Israel's frontier there's no
half price for Liberty. You still pay
in full in eternal vigilance, sweat,
tears—and often, blood.

On his lips is a threat—to sweep
all of you and eight years of amaz-
ing, Western-style progress into the
sea. ,
If. Mom should think about these
. things in the long night on the tower,
wouldn't it be natural?

Beyond the border is an enemy
with contempt for all your country
represents; opportunity, aid to new-
corners, democracy:

If she worries that Israel's .people
have no arms to match the enemy's,
wouldn't one understand?'
• But Morn --- being Mom — will

probably think about the kids. Shell
think abo6t her own and all the
who should be growing up healthy
and free.
Mom knows her job is on the bor-
der, guarding freedom. Just now she
can't help bring the kids—and adults
-:--who plead to come from lands of
danger. Because she can't—we must,
At least 45,000 Jews in turbulent
North Africa must be 'rescued now.

:

For Freedom — their freedom
give an increased gift to the United.
Jewish Appeal. Then give a great
extra gift. to UJA's Special-Survival.
Fund. Give today!
