rael through the Jewish Na-

A provisional committee was
formed at a recent meeting
headed by Harry Citrin.
The chairman noted that the
Peter Goldstein Forest, is being
planted as a tribute to his many
years of active leadership in
community and Israel causes."
He is an inspiring force behind
many Landsmanshaften accom-
plishments, as well as those of
synagogues and the Chesed Shel
Emes where he holds important
offices, and is an active mem-
ber of Bnai Brith," Citrin said.
Goldstein, according to Citrin,
has given much time and effort
in promoting the sale of Israel
Bonds, and is a member of the
board of the State of Israel De-
velopment Corporation.
Goldstein visited Israel a year
ago. Upon his return he related
his interest in the trees planted
by the Jewish National Fund.
The committee for the Gold-
stein Forest, now in formation,
includes in addition to Citrin,
Rabbi Leo Goldman, A. Ginz-
burg, Alex Gottlieb, Sam Gott-
lieb, Ben Harold, Harry Kamin-
er, Meyer Levine, Hyman Lip-
sitz, Sam Nelson, Rabbi Israel
Rockove, Isadore Rosenberg,
Nathan P. Rossen, Mr. and Mrs.
Max Stollman, Phillip Stollman,
Meyer Terebelo and Nathan
Wollock.
The Committee will meet
again next Thursday, 8:30 p.m.,
at the JNF offices, 18414 Wy-
oming, to plan the tribute to
Goldstein.

ish Agency for Palestine, co-
sponsor of the project. The
16"x20" atlas, produced in co-
operation with the Survey of
Israel, offers a large selection
of maps recording Israel's his-
tory from ancient times to the
present day; her geography,
geology, climatic conditions,
flora and fauna; the distribu-
tion of her population, educa-
tional institutions and social
services; the location of her

Wherever possible, maps de-
picting conditions as they exist-
ed at various periods in the
country's history are placed
side by side with the most up-
to-date records, giving a bird's
eye view of the rise and fall
of settlement in the old-new
Land of the Bible.
