Allied Jewish Campaigners have gone into action in the cur-
rent drive, and many large advance contributions are being an-
nounced in preparation for the drive's official opening on March 19.
In the ton phOto, Harvey Willens, pre-campaigi c.hairman
of the arts and crafts division, and Irving Goldberg, division
chairman, show their pleasure with the pre-campaign portion of
-their division. The arts and crafts division has set itself the goal
of having 50 per cent of last year's giving secured by March 19.
Key workers and leader's held their first division meeting at
Willens' home.
Chairmen Mrs. Mele Harris, and. Mrs. N. Brewster Broder of
women's pace-setter division of the 1963 Allied Jewish Campaign
are shown in the second photo getting acquainted with the meet-
ing speaker, attorney and novelist Eleazar Lipsky, president of
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, at the home of Mrs. Samuel J.
Levin. Lipsky told the women that one-third of all immigrants
to Israel are under 18 years of age. Jewish Agency newcomers
absorption programs, supported by the United Jewish Appeal, are
vital for their future. In Detroit more than half of the funds
raised in the Allied Jewish Campaign are allocated to the UJA.
Dr. Avram Biran, director, Archaeology and Antiquities, Israel
Ministry of Education and Culture, was in Detroit recently to
speak to leaders of the professional division of the 1963 Allied
Jewish Campaign at a meeting at the home of Dr. and Mrs. I.
Jerome Hauser. Shown chatting with Dr. Biran, in the third
photo, are David Dunsky, of the division's pharmacists and drug
suppliers section, and Dr. David Seligson, a member of the recent
Detroit Service Group Israel Survey Tour. Dr. Biran said arrival
is only the beginning for immigrant families reaching Israel.
The Jewish Agency must speed newcomer absorption in 1963,
with funds allocated by United Jewish Appeal.
Leaders of the mercantile division of the 1963 Allied Jewish
Campaign, were host to a leading figure of their industry, Samuel
Daroff of Philadelphia, extreme right in the bottom photo, at a
meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Kaplan. Shown with
Daroff are Kaplan, Stanley Winkelman, Harold Robinson, Division
Chairmen Marvin Alexander and Max Pincus. Daroff said that
for the third year in a row actual immigration into Israel is far
exceeding advance estimates. This year, including the incoming
tens of thousands, 308,000 immigrants in Israel will need basic
resettlement aid. The United Jewish Appeal will meet one-third
of the cost of immigrant absorption.
