Allied Jewish Campaign, last
Friday, was richly spiced with
humor as he outlined the quali-
fications of a dedicated cam-
paigner.
A good campaign solicitor
"has to be a good giver," said
Borman, "for once he has made
a good gift, he has an invest-
ment in the success of the
campaign.
"Of the many cards I have
taken this year," Borman said,
"I have talked to all but two—
one is in the hospital with no
visitors allowed and the other
prospect went out of business
and to celebrate took a 90-day
cruise. I waited patiently for 90
days and thought he would be
RI- town last week, but the
cruise so tired him, that he's
vacationing for three weeks in
Miami Beach. have his
pledge by the closing dinner,
May 2.
"When you work for the Al-
lied Jewish Campaign, you
serve the United Jewish Ap-
peal and more than 60 bene-
ficiaries in our city, our nation
and overseas. If we raise less,
we have failed not once but
more than 60 times," said Bor-
man. "Let's finish strong and
succeed more than 60 times.
"The United Jewish Appeal
has begun its 22nd annual
campaign in this community.
This great humanitarian ef-
fort, which has achieved gen-
uine distinction in the saving
and rebuilding of lives, is al-
ways an important event, Bor-
man said. "This year, when
UJA initiates its program to
speed the process of absorb-
ing 345,000 unintegrated im-
migrants out of the nearly
1,000,000 who have arrived in
Israel since 1948, it is more
important than ever for it to
receive widespread support."
Commenting on a recent dec-
laration by Prime Minister
David Ben Gurion of Israel, ex-
pressing his confidence that the
now partly closed doors in Asia,
Africa and Eastern Europe will
yet be opened for hundreds of
thousands of Jews, Irwin I.

Paul Zuckerman, Allied Jewish Campaign co-chairman,
Tom Borman, speaker at last Friday's report luncheon, and
Hyman Safran, pre-campaign co-chairman, move the Allied
Jewish Campaign total up to $3,845,540, or 80 percent of 1959
giving, which means, said Zuckerman, "we have at least
12240 Jos. Campau
'fumed. Delivery
on all models
28 percent to go."
chairman said: "When the next i
new wave of immigrants ar-
rives, every freedom-loving per-
son must hope that the road to
absorption for them will not be
blocked. We who support the
United Jewish Appeal, who have
acted in the past in partner-
ship with the people of Israel
to turn_ every crisis into an op-
portunity, are now alerted to a
great challenge to that partner-
ship's creative elasticity.
"In the course of the past
eleven years, or since the es-
tablishment of the State of Is-
rael, more than 960,000 immi-
grants have entered that na-
tion's life and become endoWed
with new life, new dignity, and
pride. This is one of the great-
est population movements in
all history, and •it has been
achieved under as difficult,
costly, and sacrificial a set of
conditions as ever confronted
any nation anywhere.
"Our Jewish community is
the proud possessor of a mag-
nificent record. We have raised
more than $20,000,000 for the
UJA in 11 years. We have saved
and rebuilt countless lives; suf-
fering has been averted, and
far-reaching constructive aid has
been made possible for those in
need -- innocent victims of op-
pression and homelessness in
more than a score of- countries.
With a little extra push we
can make this campaign a mile-
stone in our community's mag-
nificent record of generosity.
Cohn announced that many
sections completed 85 per-
cent of 1959 giving, but de-
clared: "When you are at
85 percent it means you have
23 percent still to go."
