PORTION OF HISTADRUT EXHIBIT
Detroit's annual Histadrut
campaign was set- into motion
Tuesday night, at an inspiration-
al gathering at the Labor. Zion-
ist Institute.
Marked by an exhibition por-
traying the work of Histadrut in
Israel, the current drive for a
goal of $150,000 commenced
with addresses by Katriel Katz,
Israel • Consul General; Morris
Lieberman, chairman of the
local campaign, Sidney Shevitz
and other local leaders. The
guest artist at the opening cam-
paign rally was Tova Porat,
Israeli singer, who was accom-
panied by Bella Goldberg.
The campaign commenced au-
spiciously with a proclamation
issued by Mayor Jerome P.
Cavanagh proclaiming last Tues-
day as Histadrut Day in De-
troit. The Mayor's proclamation
states:
"For more than four decades, the
City of Detroit has shared loyally
and generously in the work of His-
tadrut — the Israel Federation of
Labor—whose pioneering efforts in
the creation of the State of Israel
have placed the Jewish labor move-
ment in the front ranks of builders
of a free society in the Middle East.
"All faiths have shown a genuine
and understandable interest in the
work of this great government,
whose task it has -been and con-
tinues to be assistance to dispos-
sessed people to be rebuilt into
creative human elements.
"All races and all creeds have
shared in this historic task which
began in the Holy Land that is so
sacred to all mankind and which
has captured the imagination of
peoples everywhere.
"In Israel, where Histadrut is a
great power for good for the Jewish
people, for the State of Israel and
as an incentive for human rights
and justice for all in the entire
Middle East, all faiths, Jews, Chris-
tians, Moslems, share in Histadrut's
work and are associated with it.
"In • Detroit. our distinguished
Jewish fellow-citizens have played a
great role in the words of His-
tadrut, and it is a source of great
pride and encouragement that His-
tadrut's activities are being re-
newed this year with vigor, with
wide support, with ,the assistance
of the labor organizations in our
community.
"Recognizing this great humani-
tarian movement's values, I hereby
proclaim Tuesday as ISRAEL HIS-
TADRUT DAY IN DETROIT."
Katz described Histadrut as a
social experiment, as the in-
augurator of kibbutz life that
proved so great an incentive for
constructive work, as a school
for statesmen out of whose
ranks have risen many of Israel's
present. leaders.
"Histadrut has created a new
type of Jewish worker, assuring
him a place in society," Katz
said. He _said that Histadrut's
activities had a major impact on
the shaping of the State of Is-
rael.
The policy of Histadrut is
to help the government of Is-
rael pursue sound economic
programs," he added.
Outlining Israel's role in mak-
ing available its experiences to
the Afro-Asian nations, Katz
spoke of this extensive effort
in the economic and industrial
areas as having created "a new
type of pioneers — Israel's am-
bassadors in overalls."
Referring to the charge made
by a Soviet Russian newspaper
that Israel was rexploiting the
it': :6 6
African nations by its efforts
there, Katz asked whether that
was an expression of envy, or
evidence of an ingerent anti-
Semitic distrust of Jewish in-
tentions or sheer Communist
propaganda, and his answer was
that it was sheer ignorance of
what was being accomplished by
the great effort to aid newly
developing nations.
Lieberman opened the meet-
ing by reviewing the history of
Histadrut's accomplishments
and by issuing a call for con-
tinued devotion to a great ef-
fort in Israel's behalf. The
work of Histadrut and of local
aid to the Israel labor move-
ment further was analyzed by
Shevitz, who presided.
Shevitz utilized the occasion to
send greetings to the Jewish
Community Council on the occa-
sion of its current 25th anni-
versary.
Harold Berk, in a brief address,
called attention to the meeting's
date • corresponding to Lieber-
man's 55th birthday, and the
audience joined him in acclaim-
ing its leader on his natal day. A
birthday cake was . brought in as
a surprise to the celebrant.
Speaking in behalf of the
UAW and AFL, Irving Blue-
stone, administrative assistant to
Walter Reuther, declared that
"practical realism makes Histad-
rut stand out as unique among
the labor movements of the
world." He pledged renewed in-
terest by the American labor
movement in • Israel's Histadrut
activities.
Haim Eder and David Sha-
piro, two youngsters repre-
senting the Haim Greenberg
Folkschool, presented to the
Histadrut campaign treasurer,
Norman • Cottler, the sum of
$160.75 which the children
gathered in small contribu-
tions to the campaign. Haim,
making the presentation, re-
cited greetings in Hebrew and
English.
The more than 400 people at
the opening campaign rally an-
nounced many contributions to
the drive from individuals and
organizations.
