ORT Men's Group
Boosts Members'
Numbers to 700

Harry H. Platt, president of the
Detroit Men's ORT Chapter, an-
nounced that the membership in-.
crease of the group necessitated
the splitting of the secretary-
treasurer office. David K. Page
has been named treasurer, and
Earl Gilman continues as secre-
tary.
Platt announced that 225 new
members were enrolled in the
recent campaign, b o o sting the
membership to 700. He said the
aim is to reach the 1,000 mark
this year. In the membership
drive, headed by. Paul Zuckerman
and Max D. Schuster, Zuckerman
alone enrolled 65 new members.
As a result of the enlarged mem-
bership, national ORT last year re-
ceived from the Men's ORT Chap-
ter $15,000—the total in gifts since
the group was organized being
$34,100. The chapter secured $4,500
in legacies. It pledged the national
organization $20,000 for 1968.

Every new tree in Israel is a loving thought. Every new tree

in the Jerusalem Heroes Forest represents, first — the
desire of some man, woman or child, perhaps thousands
of miles away, to see Jerusalem united, Israel reborn.
