A $22,000 gift to the Israel Education Fund of the United
Jewish Appeal by New Yorker Fred P. Pomerantz will establish a
community center in the immigrant area of Jerusalem close to the
Jordan border (see map). Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek, announc-
ing the gift in Palm Beach, hailed the IEF project as symbol of faith

tonishing ability to shrink hemor-
rhoids and to relieve pain — without

healing substance (Bio-Dyne®)— dis-
covery of a world-famous research
institute. This substance is now avail,
able in suppository or ointment form.
