Urging greater effort for all
Israel projects during the corn-
ing 10th anniversary year,
Rabbi Charles E. Shulman, prin-
cipal speaker at Sunday's an-
nual Jewish National Fund con-
ference, said that the average
Israeli is today concerned about
two great forces: '
"One," he said, "is in the
East and has no heart; the
other is in the West and has
no head."
He quoted Israeli's Premier
David Ben-Gurion as saying
that "our closest allies are the
Jewish people."
"And, it's true," Rabbi Shul-
man declared, " While we can't
trust Russia and we can't count
on Dulles, we can depend on
the Jewish people."
The spiritual leader from
Riverdale Temple, New York,
said that Israel today is not
afraid of the Arabs or what
they will do, but the country
is concerned about what the
big powers will do.
He charged that as long as
the Jewish people came to Is-
rael to die, it was perfectly all
right with the Arabs, but as
soon as they started coming
there to live, the t r o u b l e
started.
And today, he said, "it is the
Arabs who are standing still
and have nothing to live for,
and it is the Jews who are
there to live. That's why Israel
won the war."
Rabbi Shulman spoke at the
afternoon session of the con-
ference, held in Cong. Ahavas
Achim, which started with a
brunch, at which Philip Slomo-
vitz was keynote speaker.
The Jewish ,News' editor,
who had only returned home
a few hours earlier from 'a
six-week trip to Israel and
Europe, received a prolonged
ovation for the series of arti-
cles he had sent back for
publication in both The Jew-
ish News and Detroit Free
Press.
Slomovitz spoke of Israel's
-r
many accomplishments which
were made possible through
contributions by Detroiters. He
emphasized that exceptionally
large contributions had come
from Britain and Swiss Jew-
ries, and urged intensified work
here.
He lauded the work of the
JNF, which he called "Israel's
main line of defense."
In Israel's outlying settle-
ments, trees are planted in
rows of three, he said. "This
not only begins the task of
reafforestation, it also provides
a hiding place for an Israeli
tank."
The brief address opened -the
conference which was attended
by 250 accredited delegates
from nearly 80 participating or-

UN Transmits Syrian Threat

JERUSALEM — United Na-
tions observers in the Israel-
Syrian border region have twice
transmitted threats from Syri-
ans to open fire on Israelis
unless work was halted on the
Lake Huleh development proj-
ect, the Israel Foreign Minis-
try announced Tuesday. One of
these threats was actually
transmitted just before Syrian
troops opened fire on an Israeli
work party, killing a policeman
and wounding a civilian.
The Syrians have asked the
Mixed Armistice Commission
for an emergency meeting. This

. Percy Kaplan, Detroit JNF
executive director, in his an-
nual report, said that the year
just passed represents one of
expansion, both in tree sales
and in the number of non-Jews
who -are now regularly planting
trees in Israel. He said that
sales of trees were $155,326 in
1957, an increase of about 12
percent over the preceding year.
The • delegates drafted a res-
olution calling on "the people
and the government of the
United States to extend a fra-
ternal hand' to our beleagured
ally, Israel."
- Tl e . resolution maintained
that "the future of the free
world and of free America re-
quires assistance and assurance
to our allies in the Middle
East," and charged that there
was an unholy alliance between
Communist forces and despotic
monarchs in Arab lands..
Another resolution expressed
the "zealous love of The Jewish
News and its publisher-editor
Philip Slomovitz for the dedi-
cated ideals which animate the
Jewish National Fund and Is-
rael."
Other resolutions called for
the formation of an out-state
JNF Council and expressed ap-
preciation to Ahavas Achim for
the gratuitious use of its fa-
cilities and to the Shubert
Theater for its cooperation in
a JNF benefit performance of
"The Diary of Anne Frank."

tors to bear in mind the thought
that there is much more land in
Israel that can be redeemed
from the Arabs.
