Tel Aviv (JTA) — The
Knesset held a special fes-
tive session last week to
mark the 90th anniversary
of the establishment of the
Jewish National Fund,
which was created in 1901 at
the urging of Theodor Herzl.
JNF's original purpose
was to acquire land in
Palestine to hold in
perpetuity for the Jewish
people.
True to form, most of the
120 Knesset members were
absent from the chamber, as
they usually are unless
crucial votes are scheduled
or important government
statements are to be made.
But the VIP and visitors'
galleries were packed with
national figures, led by JNF
World Chairman Moshe
Rivlin and Jewish Agency
Chairman Simcha Dinitz.
Also present were scores of
veteran kibbutzniks and
farmers who actually work
the land bought by JNF, on
which their villages were
founded over many decades.
Knesset Speaker Dov
Shilansky, who introduced
each speaker, reviewed the
history of the JNF since the
early discussions at Zionist
Congresses before the turn
of the century, where Herzl
argued the need to establish
such an instrument.
It was decided nine
decades ago that the JNF
buys land for the Jewish
people which "may never be
sold to private interests but
only leased for productive
national purposes."
Knesset members Ya'acov
Tsur of the Labor Party and
Gideon Gadot of Likud de-
scribed how the JNF built
the infrastructure of the
future state under the
slogan of "another dunam
and yet another dunam."
Summing up for the
government, Agriculture
Minister Rafael Eitan, the
only minister present,
recalled the famous JNF
"blue boxes" in Jewish
homes all over the world in
which funds were collected
penny by penny for the pur-
chase of land.
"But we had no money in
those days, and so we each
donated one potato for the
fund, which was sold to raise
the pennies," Mr. Eitan said.
Other speakers noted that
in its 90 years, the JNF has
purchased more than
250,000 acres of land, now
vested in the Jewish people,
on which nearly 200 million
trees have been planted and
hundreds of agricultural set-
tlements founded.
