LEONARD N. SIMONS
Leonard N. Simons, one of the
first members of the United
Jewish Apeal delegation to re-
turn to Detroit from Israel,
spoke enthusiastically of his ex-
periences in the new-born state.
Stating that during the dele-
gation's visit the calmness of the
land did not point to any ap-
proaching clashes or Israeli in-
vasions into enemy territory,
Simons said that the devotion of
the Israelis to their reconstruc-
tion efforts amazes every visitor.
"They have taken the most-
neglected sand-dunes and trans-
formed them into blooming gar-
dens," he said. "They are con-
tinually doing that and it is to
be hoped that there will be
peace in that entire area so that
all peoples may benefit from
the Israelis' constructive work."

Israel Pilot Crashes,
Prevents Explosion
In Populated Area
TEL AVIV (JTA) — Israel
hailed as one of its heroes an
Air Force pilot who was
severely injured in a plane crash
after refusing to abandon the
craft until he had first jetti-
soned bombs, machine gun am-
munition and gasoline in the
Mediterranean Sea off Haifa.
The pilot was participating
in a military exercise when his
engine failed. He was ordered
to abandon the plane and para-
chute to safety. However, when
he realized that he had a full
load of gasoline and explosives
and that the plane might - land
in a heavily: populated area, the
pilot stuck to his controls and
managed to guide the engine-
less craft over tM sea.
On his return, he glided into
a dead stick landing in a field
adjacent to a huge factory in
the Haifa vicinity. The plane
caught fire and the pilot was
thrown clear, but was severely
injured.
