Israel Against Invasions

(Special to The Jewish News)

NEW YORK — A group of
Detroit delegates to the 60th
anniversary convention of the
Zionist Organization of America
participated Sunday morning in
the launching of a special pro-
ject, as a partnership between
ZOA and the Jewish National
Fund, for the establishment of
border settlements in Israel as
means of safeguarding Israel
against invasions by hostile
neighbors.
The project was undertaken
by the Ussishkin League of the
JNF Foundation, which aims
this year to encourage_ the
writing of insurance with the
JNF as beneficiary and the in-
clusion of the JNF for re-
quests in wills written by
American Jews.

launched at a breakfast at
livhich the former Mayor of Tel
Aviv, Israel Rokach, was the
principal speaker.

Dr. Harris Levine, JNF
president, presided, and ad-
diresses also were deliverd by
Judge Bernard Rosenblatt,
president of the JNF Founda-
tion; Abraham Tuvim, execu-
tive director of ' the Founda-
tion; Mendel N. Fisher, JNF's
national executive director,
and a number of local lead-
ers.

In his announcement of this
newest JNF land reclamation
project for the chain of defense
settlements fronting on Jordan,
to be known as Adullam, Dr.
Levine said that the Jewish
Agency is cooperating in the
establishment of the planned
17 new villages, all connected
by internal roads and grouped
together around an urban cen-
ter, all serving as a bulwark
against Arab incursions from
Jordan territory which fronts
the area all along."
These settlements, he said
"will effectively close a gap
that is now wide open to Arab
infiltrators and marauders from
across the border."
Tel Aviv's . former Mayor
Rokach, who is Deputy Speaker
of the Israel Knesset, stressed
the importance of building up
these settlements and urged that
serious efforts be made to ful-
fill the task of creating - the new
defense area to assure Israel's
security.
It was announced-at the JNF
breakfast that Mr. and Mrs.
Israel Rokach will include De-
troit in their costs-to-coast tour
of this country in behalf of JNF
during the coming month.
