THE 'DETROIT liEWISH NEWS
Ex-Detroiter Asks
for Greater Aliya
Former Detroit Chaim
"Larry" Forst, who has gone
on aliya to Israel with his
wife, expresses concern for
the Jewish state's future, in
an urgent message ad-
dressed to the Jewishcom-
munity of Detroit. In his let-
ter to The Jewish News,
Forst makes a plea for aliya,
for American Jews to assist
in assuring Israel's security.
His message reads in part:.
"We need people here. We
need trained people, college-
educated people, Jewish
.people like yotirselves with
h _ igh American efficiency
tandards, with developed
political thoughts, with the
desire to build, and the de-
sire to "raise Jewish children
in a Jewish state with a real
Jewish education. .
"You can make aliya.
There are thousands, liter-
ally thousands of former
Americans living in Israel.
Each one will tell you how
tough it was and still is. But
since when was being Jew-
ish easy? .. .
"Each one is doing an en-
ormous amount of good for
his people, for the Jewish
homeland, for the continu-
ance of our nation, for the
sake of his children. And
isn't that what being Jewish
is all about?"-
