HELP SAVE A JEINIsill NATIONAL TREAsIURE Many of us remember as children the blue box that signified a Jewish home. In that Jewish National Fund box, we placed the coins that one day would help buy land and trees for the future Jewish State. One of the most devastating reports coming out of Israel in recent months has focused on the destruction of thousands of trees and acres of pastureland — land that has been the foundation of Israel's rebirth. In many cases, this destruction has been deliberate: acts of terrorism by enemies of the State of Israel against its agricultural and industrial resources. Since the beginning of May, more than 35,000 acres of forests and orchards have been destroyed. With its limited finances and manpower, Israel is ill- prepared to combat this form of warfare. To replace every tree, to redeem and beautify the land — and equally important, to acquire the latest fire-fighting equipment and communications systems to help Israel's overwhelmed forces — the Jewish National Fund has mounted a worldwide emergency cash campaign.
