BIRON Israel-America Cultural Exchange The America-Israel Cultural Foundation, formerly known as American Fund for Israel In- stitutions, is doing a big job which does not get sufficient publicity . . The Foundation projects a new policy which ac- cording to Samuel Rubin, its president, will emphasize much more the two-way character of its functions . . . Last year, the Foundation announced a Mid- dle East Scholarship Fund . . . The scholarship will enable qualified students from Arab countries, as well as from Tur- key, Greece, India and Burma, to study at the Hebrew Univer- sity, the Weizmann Institute of Science, the Technion and the Academies of Music But this Be Fair To Yourself .

And, interestingly enough, two Greek students will be do- ing their graduate work at the Weizmann Institute at Rehovoth . . . Rubin hopes that during 1957 one hundred scholarships for Israeli and Middle East stu- dents will be provided by the Foundation . . . This spells cul- tural exchange with a capital The American-Israel Cultural Foundation is helping to build museums, art centers, opera houses and community cultural centers in Israel . . . In the pioneer regions, the Negev and Galilee, it has made possible the building of a whole chain of these centers in which artists who have hitherto performed only in the cities will now be seen in these frontier towns and settlements which have long thirsted for theater and music . . . In other words, our pio- neers who carry the burden of frontier defenge will not be cut off any longer from the cul- tural life of Israel. . . . At the same time, the Foun- dation is expanding its pro- gram of bringing Israeli talent to the United States . . .

FROM THE MOMENT you awaken until yot1 go to bed, almost everything you do is closely de- pendent upon the operation of trucks. In fact, even while you're asleep, trucks are working for you. (Beds arrive by truck, too, of course.) Without trucks, your favorite food market would have empty shelves. Without trucks, you wouldn't find gas stations located conveniently almost everywhere you turn. Without trucks, the building of new homes, factories, and stores would slow to a walk and businesses of all kinds everywhere would suffer. Sooner or later, everything you eat, wear, or use depends on trucks for transportation. Even- tually, everything has to get to you the con- , sumer. So, when you consider that trucks haul three times the tonnage handled by all the other forms of transportation combined, you realize how very important they are to you!
