First Israel Bonds
Completely Redeemed
NEW YORK (JTA)—The state
of Israel made a final payment
here Monday of $31,320,685 to com-
plete the redemption of the first
Israel Bond issue ever floated in
the United States to help finance
Israel's economic development.
Pinhas Sapir, Israel's minister
of finance, told more than 350 Jew-
ish leaders who gathered at a
luncheon at the Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel to celebrate the event, that
"the completion of the repayment
of the first Israel Bonds represents
an important milestone in our drive
toward economic independence."
The $31,320,685 check which
Sapir turned over at the luncheon
was the largest single amount ever
paid _out by the state of Israel to
meet any of its financial obliga-
tions. It was made out to the Chase
Manhattan Bank, fiscal agent for
Israel Bonds, to be distributed to
holders of coupon bonds maturing
Monday.
These are the last outstanding
bonds of the Independence issue,
which produced a total of $145,-
532,800 during the three-year peri-
od beginning May 1, 1951, when the
first Israel Bond campaign was
launched in the United States.
In addition to the Israel
finance minister, the luncheon
was addressed by Avraham liar-
man, Israel's ambassador to the
United States; Abraham Fein-
berg, president of the Israel Bond
Organization; Dr. Joseph J.
Schwartz, vice president, and
Samuel Rothberg, national cam-
paign chairman.
The Israeli leader pointed out
that, in addition to the $31,320,-
685 payment made Monday, Israel
would pay out another $33,000,000
for the redemption of other Israel
Bonds falling due this year.
The average man who buys U.S.
bonds on the payroll savings plan
invests about $27 monthly.
