$781,000 Pledged
To Jewish Appeal as
Dinner Opens Drive
Jewish leaders of the District last
night pledged $781,000 to the Wash
ington United Jewish Appeal during
a dinner which officially launched
the 1947 campaign for $2,000,000 "for
overseas relief and refugee aid. The
dinner was held in the Mayflower
I Hotel.
i The 183 pledges followed a speech;
by Dr. Abba Hillel Silver, president;
of the Zionist Organization of Amer- j
ica and head of the Central Confer- !
ence of American Rabbis, in which;
he pointed out that the Jewish refu-j
gee was "beginning to crack."
Explaining that the refugee's!
hopes have been raised high "and
then dashed· down," Dr. Silver, in|
his plea for funds, added: "How;
long can the human heart endure;
t.hpRA frustrations?"
Loyalty Manifested.
"To me a meeting such as this is
a manifestation of loyalty and of a
great sense of responsibility," Dr.
Silver said. "Forty per cent of our
people have been destroyed. The
Jewish people are the toughest, not ;
in numbers but in fibre and life- j
hunger. Now they are proving their ι
toughness by gathering together and
concerning themselves with people
i they have never seen." This, he
i said, was because of "universal bonds
of memory, a sense of fraternal com
pulsion and of love."
Dr. Silver told how industrial,
agricultural and cultural progress
was being made In Palestine al-:
though press accounts tell of noth-j
ing but violence. He said the
money donated makes it possible to
take care of immigrants to that
land, and that this year 18,000 i
refugees would be admitted legally;
and "quite a number of others not ;
legally."
He suggested that the United
States, acting within the frame-ί
work of United Nations, take the j
lead in obtaining UN action for
unr 'stricted immigration to Pales
; tine.
Another speaker, Ε. I. Kaufmann,
an honorary campaign chairman,1
