U.S. Treasury Begins Savings Bond Campaign May 1 marks the kick-off of the U.S. Treasury's 1963 Free- dom Bond Drive, an intensive nationwide effort to stimulate systematic purchasing of U.S. savings bonds in all American households. As a part of the national cam- paign, every family in Michigan is being asked to buy at least one savings bond before July 4. Leading civic, fraternal, busi- ness, labor, veterans', women's and professional organizations are joining in the effort, accord- ing to Delmar V. Cote', state di- rector for the Treasury's U.S. Savings. Bonds Division. He explained . that if the fam- ilies of 50 per cent or more of the members buy at least one bond during the drive period, the organization or club quali- fies for a colorful Treasury cita- tion. • The bond may be purchased via the payroll savings plan at work, through the bond-a-month plan at a bank, or over the coun- ter at any financial institution. Or it may be obtained in ex- change for a filled album of -U.S. savings stamps or received as a refund on one's 1962 income tax. A bond bought by one mem- ber of the family counts for all members of the family.

Several thousand Israelis flocked to the exhibition, the first of its kind in the Middle East. The fair was opened by Jer- usalem Mayor Mordechai Ish- ' Shalom, who, after welcoming the visitors, read a message from President Izhak Ben-Zvi which was prepared before the President died. The exhibit is arranged in national sections comprising works in 10 lan- guages including German. It will remain open for one week. Interior Minister Moshe Haim Shapiro, who greeted the fair on behalf of the government. expressed regret that there were no entries from Arab countries at the fair, which, he said, rep- resents the best effort of liter- ate mankind. He called on Arab men of letters to join their Jew- ish colleagues to achieve a rap- proachement between both peoples. The tiny Jewish community of Aruba, an affiliate of the World Jewish Congress, has just built its first synagogue and center. S. L. Berlinski, the president of the Jewish community of Aruba, visited the New York headquarters of the World Jew- ish Congress and reported on developments within the com- munity which consists of only 35 families. Until a few months ago, the community had no syn- agogue of its own, but a new building, whicii includes a cen- ter, assembly hall, and a school room, was formally dedicated on Nov. 4, 1962. Berlinski said that a teacher has been appointed tc run He- brew classes which are attended by 60 children whose ages range from 5-16. Reporting that the community lived in an atmosphere of peace and harmony with all its fellow citizens, Berlinski said that sup- port was extended to all the great causes of Israel and Juda- ism and that, fortunately, the economic position of the commu- nity members rendered any local welfare agency unnecessary. Berlinski discussed with WJC officers the possibility of secur- ing assistance in establishing a library for the community in the new center.
