B-G's Message
for Tu b'Shvat
By DAVID BEN-GURION
(On the occasion of Jewish
Arbor Day, Tu b'Shvat, which
is widely observed throughout
the Jewish world as a day on
which to plant trees in Israel,
we herewith reprint a state-
ment by David Ben Guirion,
Israel's Prime Minister, on the
importance of trees for the •
Jewish state.)
We must plant hundreds of
thousands of frees covering an
area of 5,000,000 dunams, one
quarter of the surface of our
country; we must cover the
mountains and the uncultivable
land, the hills and the sand
dunes, the barreri plains of the
Negev—all the land of Edom
and of the Arava, as far as
Elath. We must plant-these trees
for many reasons, not least for
security, all along our frontiers,
our highways and roads, around
public buildings and military
installations.
The mountains of our country
still stand naked and pray for
the hand of the planter to re-
store their pristine woods and
forests .. We are under -no ob-
ligation to accept the heritage
of desolation from the , past, for
it is within our power to affor-
est the waste, to fertilize the
sand dunes, to dig wells, to
exploit the hidden resources,
to build and to revive the dust
of the earth, to redeem its min-
erals and natural treasures—
indeed, this is the true con-
quest of the land; this indeed
is the great mission which the
Jewish National Fund is called
upon to undertake in our own
day.
