Israel Encourages
Volunteers to Remain
TEL AVIV—Israel is encourag-
ing young Jews, age 20 to 30, to
spend six months to a year as volun-
teers here. Col. Amihai Tsur, head
of the Volunteer Authority appoint-
ed by the government, said it is
hoped that the wartime influx of
volunteers will be transformed in-
to a sustained and organized peace-
time movement.
Even those who decide not to
settle will be considered links be-
tween the Jews of Israel and com-
munities abroad.
Some 700 of the 3.500 volunteers
who came for three or four months
changed their status to temporary
residents, which entitled them to
housing, loans and other privileges
accruing to immigrants.
Among these 700, 400 enrolled
in universities, 60 or 70 joined
kibutzim and the remainder found
jobs in the cities.
Detroiter Leon Waldman, who
graduated f r o m Mumford High

man of Prairie Ave., Waldman is

preparation for the rabbinate, is

Waldman. whose interest lies in
the field of Jewish education, has
already had extensive experience

LISTENING — ANYTHING BETTER?
Should we stay in — should we get out,
The UN is full of nothing but doubt,
But in desperation War to avoid,
Just be patient — don't get annoyed.
