Bnai Brith Account Stands
in Need of New Depositors
By the Oak-Woodser
When a fund-raiser has dif-
ficulty in obtaining money from
an individual he is likely to
use the expression, "It's harder
to get anything from him than
to get blood from a turnip."
As we all should know by
now, you just can't get blood
from a turnip. But; by the same
token, there are some very ac-
tive people in the Bnai Brith
Blood Bank who will tell you,
"You can't get blood from some
people."
It has been over seven years
now since Amer i c a n s have
thought seriously about blood
as a necessity for our service-
men fighting overseas. Then, as
a patriotic duty, people would
volunteer to go to the Red
Cross or would attend blood
rallies given by Bnai Brith and
other organizations.
Today, patriotism doesn't
enter the picture. Neverthe-
less, the need for blood re-
mains imperative, as always,
for emergency needs through
the Red Cross and for routine
work.
While there are many indi-
viduals who give on a regular
basis, during Bnai Brith's reg-
ular four blood rallies during
the year, it appears as if the
demand for blood increases as
the number of donors lessens.
Advanced medical techniques
have made increasing use of
the transfusion as a way of
quickening recovery and of
building up patients before an
operation, leading to a greater
demand for blood.
Only when the need arises in
one's own family does a person
fully realize the importance of
having a bank to replace blood
that has been used.
It is not infrequent that re-
quests for 20 and 30 pints are
made for one patient, and,
without replacement, it ap-
pears obvious that a day will
come when the blood bank
account, like a bank account,
will be overdrawn.
During the coming week,
Bnai Brith members and others
in the community who wish to
give their blood will have the
opportunity.
Rallies are planned both
Monday and Tuesday night, the
first at the Clinton School, 9
Mile and Parklawn, in Oak
Park, and the second night at
Adas Shalom Synagogue.
Members of the Red Cross
and Bnai Brith Women serving
as assistants will be in attend-
ance from 6 to 11 on both
nights.
Why not make it a practice to
give before you take!

Center Plans 'Lounge'
for Older Adults
A new lounge program for
older adults will start on Wed-
nesday, at the Ten Mile branch
of the Jewish Community Cen-
ter, 15110 W. Ten Mile. The
lounge will be from 8 to 10:30
p.m. and a full list of activities
is being planned to make Wed-
nesday evenings a highlight in
the Older Adult calendar.
Singing, both community and
folk variety, will be spotlighted.
Dancing, from the cha-cha-cha
of the Caribbean to the folk
dances of Israel, also is
planned.
A wide variety of films, in-
cluding Yiddish and Israeli pro-
ductions, travelogues and docu-
mentaries, is another feature.
Guest lecturers will provide
interesting and - educational in-
formation on topics of current
interest and special significance
to the audience. Also planned
are informal discussions, games,
and crafts for those who find
relaxation in creating in clay,
metal and other media.
Older adults will be invited
to suggest program plans of
their own liking and conduct
their own activities if they so
desire.
Staff worker Mrs. Dorothy
Roer will aid in the lounge pro-
gram.
Supplementary Annual Agreement
on Reparations Signed at Bonn
Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News
BONN—A supplementary an-
nual agreement for the type
and quantities of German
goods to be supplied to Israel
in the next fiscal year under
the terms of the Luxembourg
Reparations Treaty was signed
here Monday. That pact pro-
vided for the federal govern-
ment to pay Israel the equiva-
lent of $715,000,000 directly as
reparations and another $107,-
000,000 for the account of the
Conference of Jewish Material
Claims.
As in previous years, the
Germans took advantage of an
escape clause to pay the mini-
mum annual amount-250,000,-
000 Deutschemarks (approxi-
mately $62,000,000). Again, as
in previous years, the Germans
will pay Britain 75,000,000
marks in sterling equivalent
for Israeli purchases, chiefly oil
from the British Common-
wealth. Capital goods will make
up about 55 per cent of pro-
ducts and raw material and
semi-finished items the re-
mainder.
By the end of the current
fiscal year, on March 31, Ger-
many will have fulfilled half
of its total commitments under
the reparations pact. Among
the capital projects shipped to
Israel was machinery and
equipment needed to .put the
Timna Copper Mines — King
Solomon's fabled mines — back
into operation. Production will
start this year.
The first stage of Germany's
shipbuilding program for Israel
has already been completed.

building program for Israel has

Hadassah "Pilgrimage to
Israel fir 400 Members
NEW YORK (JTA) — More
than 400 leaders and members
of Hadassah will leave on a
special "Pilgrimage to Israel"
to mark the tenth anniversary
of the establishment of t h e
Jewish State, Mrs. Rebecca
Shulman, leader of the women's
Zionist organization, announced.
tions goods last year amounted
to 15 per cent of Israel's im-
ports. Goods purchased outside
the framework of the pact
amounted to another five per
cent of Israel's total 1957 im-
ports. In the past two years,
Israel bought 120,000,000 marks
worth of goods in this fashion,
paying for 75 per cent of the
purchases in foreign currency
and the remainder :n citrus
products.
The Israel Purchasing Mis-
sion in Cologne sees this de-
velopment as the gradual
establishment of a normal com-
mercial agreement. Israeli offi-
cials in Germany feel Israel
will still need to buy German
products, especially rplace-
ment parts, for technical
installations being delivered
under the reparations agree-
ment.
