haVe yet to be solicited," William
Avrunin, executive vice-president,
said. "If we are to fulfill our
commitment, to Israel's people and
to our own people in Detroit, of
reaching far beyond our last year's

extraordinary giving must be main-
tained."

total. Workers from the arts and

tact every potential contributor
in the community is a Telethon
scheduled by the campaign divi-
sions at the United Hebrew

Fishman, campaign chairmen, is-
- sued a statement to the entire De-
troit community to rally to the sup-
port Of the -last segment of the
drive. They said:
"The Detroit community can
Make history. We can tell our fel-
low Jews that we, know and care
about their problems. We can say
to them 'We may not have helped
enough in the past but we will do
better' ". -

Campaign chairmen Fishman
and Shaye, in a supplementary
statement, outlined the needs at
home and declared:
"Israel's needs are urgent and
pressing.
"But the cold, merciless truth
is that there also are pressing
needs which the letters did not
even hint at. You may see them
every day at first hand at the
corner of Meyers and Curtis, or
at 11501 Petoskey, or at 6767 West
Outer Drive — in short, wherever
Jews gather freely or of necessity
in Detroit and elsewhere in Amer-
ica.
"What attitude shall we take to-
ward such purely domestic needs?
"Knowing how desperately an
immigrant family in Israel heeds
a place to live, what shall we
say to the request by the United
Hebrew Schools for -funds to meet
the teacher shortage?
"Aware as we are of the life-and-
death nature of the struggle Israel
wages, what will our answer be
when the residents at the Home
for Aged need more nursing care?
"Shall we rescue a child from
the slums of Morocco and lose
one to the drug culture of De-
troit for lack of a club worker at
the Jewish Community Center?
"Do the truce-talk headlines
seem more apocalyptic than the
case load of - a worker at the
Jewish Family and Children's
Service?
"No. The quality of Jewish life
in Detroit and the preservation of
it in Israel are inextricable. The
Jewish people are not divisible.

"Yet, there are priorities. Just ing call of the shofar will not be

innumerable programs for essen-
tial change and expansion at home
have been restrained. Just as
Israel herself has frozen her social
welfare budgets at subminimal
levels, so all local Detroit agencies
are being limited to maintaining
existing levels of service.
