Hadassah.
She noted that Hadassah
— which directs money to
its hospitals, schools and
youth programs in Israel —
did not experience a
decrease in funding in
1979, after President
Anwar Sadat of Egypt and
Prime Minister Menachem
Begin of Israel signed the
Camp David Accords.
Les Goldstein, Midwest
executive director of Bar-
Ilan University in Israel,
also expressed optimism.
"If this agreement really
leads to the goals we hope
for, I think everything asso-
ciated with Israel will pros-

said.

THESE DAYS, ONE OF THE HEALTHIEST
RETURNS You CAN GET COMES FROM AN
INVESTMENT WE MADE IN 1912.

Over 80 years ago, when 35

neighbors pledged to build a hospital

on a patch of barren desert and care

for people afflicted with tubculosis,

some saw it as nothing more than a

good intention. A gamble, at best.

But those involved had a differ-

And indeed they did. Because

from this goodwill came one of today's

generally increases during
times of crisis. But this
doesn't necessarily mean
that contributions to Israel
will decrease if peace
endures, he said.
Joel Tauber, national
chairman of the United
Jewish Appeal, said it is too
early to tell how the peace
accord will affect charitable
giving to UJA.
Mr. Tauber said there
are two reasons he doesn't
expect charitable giving to
decrease in the short-term.
First, peace in the Middle
East will encourage more
Russian refugees to make
aliyah. The UJA will need
money for resettlement, he
said.
"Second, as Israel takes
this risk for peace, I think

overwhelming support as it
has in the past," he said.
"We vote with our dollars. I
think part of Israel's will-
