to Israel, The JDC leader said
that the JDC must aid a mini-
mum of 250,000 Jewish men,
women and children overseas
during the coming year.
Herbert A g a r, Pulitzer
Prize-winning historian, de-
clared that the creation of Is-
rael "has helped to change
the role of the Jew in world
affairs." A recent visitor to
Poland, Agar called that coun-
try "a shallow graveyard"
where one can "hardly put a
spade in the ground without
turning up the bones of those
who died because of the
Nazis." He called the Ausch-
witz concentration camp a
"United Nations of the dead."
The 1959 JDC budget repre-
sents an increase of more than
$1,600,000 over expenditures in
1958. The largest single approp-
riation, toalling $11,000,000 will
go for support of Malben, the
JDC welfare program in Israel
serving aged, ill and handi-
capped newcomers to Israel.
The JDC budget was adopted
following a report by Charles H.
Jordan, director - general for
JDC overseas operations, who
pointed out that "increased Jew-
ish relief needs in Poland and
Moslem areas, and expanded aid
programs in France in behalf of
unabsorbed Jewish refugees
there from Hungary, Egypt and
North Africa, largely account
for the increase in the budget."
