May this prayer be fulfilled in the year to come. May we see the fulfillment of hope that the ancient heritage, the spiritual value of our people, will be thepredominant guide for Jewish living. May it lead us to joy and contentment, amidst a world at peace.

JDC Distributed 135,000,000 Lbs. of U.S. Food for Peace in 10 Years ■ J I / ( Of the 175,000,000 pounds of food supplies distributed overseas by the Joint Distribution Commit- tee during the ten-year period from 1956 through 1965, 135,000,- 000 pounds represented United States-donated food-for-peace sup- plies purchased by JDC, Jordan said. These figures do not reflect ad- ditional purchases made locally either by the JDC or by organiza- tions which receive financial sup- port from the JDC, Jordan said. The JDC receives funds for its feeding and other welfare pro- grams in some 30 countries over- seas mainly from the campaigns of the United Jewish Appeal, and in Detroit from the Allied Jewish Campaign. The U.S. food-for-peace sup- plies were valued by the govern. ment at approximately $9,000,- 000. However, Jordan pointed out that the figure at the con- er or retail levels would be ch higher. JDC's purchases ing the ten-year period amounted to approximately $4,000,000 — also at the bulk or wholesale level, he said. The greatest amount of the U.S.- donated food, over 58,000,000 pounds, with a value of almost $3,500,000, went to Israel. Morocco received 44,500,000 pounds, valued at close to $1,000,000. Tunisia re- ceived over 13,500,000 pounds valued at $850,000. (JDC also re- ceived close to 31,000,000 pounds of food for distribution to the gen- eral population in Tunisia from 1961 through 1965.) Other coun- tries which received substantial amounts were Italy, almost 9,000,- 000 pounds; Iran, 5,000,000 pounds; France, 3,250,000 pounds; and Yugoslavia, 1,000,000 pounds. Lesser amounts were shipped to Austria, Belgium, Germany and Greece. The bulk of U.S. food consisted of flour and milk. Other commod- ities sent during the ten-year peri- od included cornmeal, bulgur, rolled wheat, fats and oil, rice, but- ter and cheese. Rice, butter and cheese, which were removed from the list of available foods because they were in short supply, were sent mainly between 1956 and 1961, Jordan said. Happy New Year! Mayor Cavanagh to Receive Copy of Declaration of Soviet Jewry A delegation representing De- troit's Jewish community will meet with Mayor Jerome P. Cavanagh at 10 a.m. Tuesday to present - him with a plaque inscribed with a "Declaration of Rights of Soviet Jewry. ,, Members of the delegation in- Dr. Samuel Krohn, presi- of the Jewish Community Amcil; Rabbi Leizer Levin, presi- ant, Council of Orthodox Rabbis; Leon Frain, Temple Israel; Rabbi Benjamin H. Gorrelick, Cong. Beth Aaron; Edwin Shifrin, chairman of Council's culture com- mission; Irving Pokempner, chair- man of Council's new committee on Soviet anti-Semitism; Lawrence Gubow and Benjamin Laikin, co- chairmen of the new committee. The Declaration, adopted earlier by the 25 national Jewish organiza- tions which comprise the American Jewish Conference on Soviet Jewry, calls upon Soviet authorities to restore to its Jewish citizens the same rights granted to other na- tionality groups within the USSR. These include access to cultural and religious materials, the right to develop Jewish communal life, increased efforts to eradicate anti- Semitism in the Soviet Union and permission for Soviet Jewish fam- ilies, separated during World War II, to be reunited with their rela- tives abroad.
