The Israeli Ministry of Posts
has announced an airmail stamp
to be part of the regular series
of postage stamps. A view of
Lake Huleh is decided on this
750 pruta stamp; which has
been designed by G. Hamori of
Tel-Aviv.
The malarial swamps of the
Huleh Valley are gradually diva
appearing from the map of
Israel as a result of the drain-
age project carried out by the
Jewish National Fund.
The Ministry of Posts has -re-
leaSed information about the
forthcoming issue in August of
three commemorative postage
stamps in honor of Rosh Has-
hanah. The stamps picture mu-
sicians and musical instruments
of Biblical times.
The series, designed by Mir-
iam Karoly of Haifa, , is com-
prised of the following three
bi-colored stamps:

on the use of local currencies
acquired–by the United States
in Israel. He testified before the
Senate Appropriations Commit-
tee Tuesday morning to . ask
Congressional funds for the pro-
ject.
The program is designed to
reach many Israeli private and
public organizations and insti-
tutions. The projects recom-
mended for assistance include
provision for expanded facilities
for organizations that care for
orphans and underprivileged
children, and the handicapped
assistance is also proposed to-
ward the construction of cul-
tural and community halls at
Tel Aviv, Haifa, Nazareth and
in the Galilee. Quarters for a
United States Information Cen-
ter and Library at Tel Aviv has
been recommended.
A wing to house an American
Law Library for the. Israel Bar
Association, chairs in American
studies at Israel's mayor uni-
versities and scholarship funds
for studies in fields that will
contribute to a closer U.S.-Israel
understanding would be estab-
lished under the program. As-
sistance would be given in the
translation and publishing OT
books. It is recommended that
a museum be constructed for
the display of arts and antiqui-
ties and provision has been
made for archaeological research
and exploration.
Several projects would pro-
mote the - teaching and use of
the English language. Other pro-
jects are designed to introduce
courses in American history and
literature. The projects will be
concentrated primarily in the
leading cities of Israel.
Katzen's proposal was chal-
lenged by Senator Ellender (D.,
La.), who told the Senate com-
mittee that "the Jews of Amer-
ica and the world will ,have to
subsidize .Israel from here on
out, because the people there
will never make a go of it."

Utilizing the songs of Israel,
both old and new, Geula and
Dubi have captivated the hearts
of folk music lovers.
Between engagements, they
attend the Mannes School of
Music in New York, where they
study advanced musical theories.
In Israel, Dubi was musical
director of the Israel army en-
tertainment program, as well as
a teacher of music in Israeli
high schools. His wife, Geula,
was an actress, who learned to
sing to the accompaniment of
her husband's accordion.

clear physicist of the Soviet
Union, was under house arrest
from 1946 until after Stalin's
death in 1953, it was reported'
here by the New York Times.
Quoting several U. S. scien-
tists who returned from, the
USSR, the Times said that Dr.
Kapitsa has been returned to
his work and was host to the
Americans.
The Jewish scientist was re-
ported to have fallen from Sta-
lin's favor after refusing to
work on nuclear weapons de-
velopment, allegedly insisting
that as a scientist he must judge
the direction of his research.
Dr. Kapitsa twice won the -Stalin
prize for scientific a c h i e v e-
ments and the British Faraday
Prize.
In 1951, Dr. Kapitsa, in an
appeal from Moscow, addressed
to Jews throughout the world,
urged Jewish scientists "to con-
tribute all their strength and
knowledge" to the defeat of
I\T" zism.
In this appeal, Dr. Kapitsa
stated:
"The- history of world science
and art is much indebted to the
Jewish people. Historical fee-,
tors scattered the Jews among
all countries 2,000 years ago.
Therefore, their work has been
closely bound up with the coun-
tries of their residence.(
"This accentuates the inter-
national value of their creative

these conditions frequently sub-
ject them to the danger of cruel
reprisals.
"When'some country enters a
period of dark reaction, its
authorities instigate persecution
against the Jews. Playing up
the basest human instincts by
organizing anti-Jewish programs,
they try to divert the people's
attention from the real causes
of the country's plight."

Postal History in the Bible
In the book "Mail for the
World" by L a u r in Zilliacus
(New York: John ,Day Com-
pany, 1953) the author wrote
that "So well established was
the post in Job's day that he
uses it as an illustration of the
shortness of life: 'My Days are
swifter than a post; they flee
away'."
Comments on the postal sys-
tem of the time are found in
a good many parts of the Bible.
Here are a few clues suggested
by author Zilliacus . . . Chapter
51 of Jeremiah; Chapter •21 of
the First Book of Kings and
Chapter 20 of the Second Book
of Kings; and the Second Book
of Samuel.

Bulganin_Says Moscow
Would Consider Call
For Aid from Israel

All of us try to get the best value for every dollar we spend. Why

not apply the same wisdom to the money we save? An account

at American Savings earns 2 1 /2 per cent, a higher-than-average

rate—makes savings easier to keep intact—less tempting to

withdraw Remember, too, at American Savings, funds received

by the 10th, earn from the 1st of the month. Naturally it's smart

to "Save the American Way"—because it's more more profitable.

PARIS (JTA) — The Soviet
Union would give "serious con-
sideration" to any request from
Israel for technical assistance,
Soviet Premier Nikolai Bul-
ganin told newsmen at a recep-
tion at the French Embassy in
Moscow. The Premier, however,
stressed that no such request
had been received from Israel.
