NEW YORK, (JTA) — Dr.
Emanuel Neumann, chairman
of the American section of the
Jewish Agency and president
of the World Confederation of
General Zionists, asserted that
the response of the American
Jewish community for financial
assistance to meet the barest
minimum required for the ab-
sorption and settlement for the
increased wave of incoming ref-
ugees arriving in Israel by the
scores of thousands "has been
inadequate and disappointing."
Neumann was prin cip a 1
speaker at the concluding ses-
sion of a meeting of the na-
tional executive council of the
Zionist Organization of Amer-
ica, attended by several hun-
dred Zionist leaders from all
over the country. The ZOA's
national executive council is
the organization's ruling body
between annual conventions.
Jacques Torczyner, chairman of
the council, presided.
Rabbi Max Nussbaum of
Hollywood, president of the

ZOA, called upon American
Zionists to utilize in full the
historic opportunity presented
to them for the first time in
the 15-year history of the estab-
lishment of the State of Israel,
because of the change in the
climate of opinion for Zionism
created in Israel by the recent
ZOA Convention held there,
particularly the unanimous ex-
pressions of support for the
movement by all top leaders of
the Israel government and peo-
ple, including David Ben-
Gurion.
Neumann said that, unless
greater American Jewish help
is forthcoming "in much greater
measure," the massive program
of the Jewish Agency in the
fields of immigration, absorp-
tion, housing, settlement and
youth aliyah, "will be gravely
affected or break down under
the crushing load." The Jewish
Agency for Israel carries out
the program for the reception
and settlement of newcomers
to Israel.

Neumann stated that "not
many of the friends of Israel—
Jews and non-Jews, Zionists
and non-Zionists alike — realize
to what extent the Jewish
Agency for Israel is staggering
under the burden it is bearing
in connection with the in-
creased wave of immigration
during the past two years." He
further asserted that "the as-
sistance extended to incoming
refugees arriving by the scores
of thousands, and meeting the
barest minimum required for
their initial reception and sub-
scription and settlement, have
strained the resources of the
Jewish Agency almost to the
breaking point."
"Despite the heroic efforts of
the untiring leaders of the
United Jewish Appeal, and the
exemplary generosity of dedi-
cated supporters, the response
of the American Jewish com-
munity has, on the whole, been
inadequate and disappointing,"
he declared. He charged that
"the offerings of large numbers

of American Jews are still fan-
tastically disproportionate to the
staggering needs and equally
disproportionate to their ability
to shoulder their moral re-
sponsibilities. Our concern for
Israel cannot be met only by
verbal expressions of sentiment
or fervent condemnation of as-
saults upon her security."
Making a strong plea for in-
creased support to the United
Jewish Appeal, Nussbaum said
that "our first immediate task
on the approach of the Jewish
New Year is to arouse the
Jewish community anew so that

we may meet our most elemen-
tary responsibility in financial
aid."

TEL AVIV, (JTA)—The Acre
Steel Works, which for years
has been in difficulty over the
high prices it has charged for
finished products, announced it
will substitute imported steel
ingots for ingots it has been
making with its own facilities.
The high prices have given rise
to repeated questions in parlia-
ment.
