for 25 Years' Support of Program

Nearly 300 representatives
of local landsmanshaften, so-

drut Campaign, were honored

gram at the Hayim Greenberg
Center.

that night assured that the
$23,000 figure achieved by the
group in last year's campaign
will be surpassed.
Israel Stolarsky, assistant na-
tional secretary of the National
Committee for Labor Israel,
stated that 80 per cent of the
emigrants who have been ar-
riving from East Europe in the
last few months have been
processed in Israel by Hista-
drut.
He added that the Kupat Ho-
lim, Histadrut's medical arm,
had increased its budget by 60
per cent, to an unprecedented
high of $55,000,000, to care
for the new arrivals.
Stolarsky said that the clos-
ing of the doors to emigration
by the Romanian government
"may be a blessing in disguise,"
since it gives Israel a "breather
she well needs." He added,
however, that Israel still hopes
that doors will again be
opened, this time not so pub-
licly.
Morris Malin, of the Korosti-
shever Aid Society, was the
evening's chairman, and greet-
ings were extended by Morris
Lieberman, chairman of the
Histadrut Campaign.
The evening concluded with
entertainment by S h m u e 1
Fisher and Cantor Hyman J.
Adler.
Meanwhile, other divisions
of the campaign reported that
the end of the campaign is in
sight. A series of Sunday tele-
phone call days are being
planned to clean up all cards
as quickly as possible.
Campaign leaders this week
indicated that all cards are ex-
pected to be completed by the
time of the official close of the
drive, the April 26 third seder.
