Louis H. Boyar, chairman of

Mayor John V. Lindsay of New

Israel's existence was being jeop-

The announcement of the record-
breaking result was made by
Samuel Rothberg, national cham-
paign chairman. This year's drive
will seek to achieve an unpreced-
ented goal of a $250,000,000 sale of
Israel Bonds which provide the
investment funds for major in-
dustrial and agricultural projects,
the exploitation of n a t u r al re-
sources, the construction of hous-

transportation facilities.
Rothberg emphasized that the
1970 campaign would have to raise
$90,000,000 more in this year than
the $160,000,000 is Israel Bonds
that was sold in 1969.
