UJA GROUP IN ISRAEL TO DISCUSS RESCUE T
A three-man mission of the United Jewish Appeal is in Israel to take part in discussions and surveys on the organization's role in helping the new state cope with mou-nting immigration, settlement and rehabilitation problems. Members of the mission are Edward M. M. Warburg, general chairman of the Appeal; Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, Appeal executive vice-chairman, and Morris W. Berin-stein, chairman of the Appeal's national campaign cabinet. The mission is conferring in Jerusalem with members of the Jewish Agency and the Israeli Government on the mass rescue of threatened Jewish populations in Eastern Europe and the Moslem world. It will give special attention to housing and settlement needs of 150,000 new immigrants.
outskirts of Jerusalem, the foundation stone of which warn laid a year ago by Eddie Cantor himself, was officially opened in the presence of the American Ambassador, Monnett B. Davis, and many Hadassah workers from the United States. The institute, consisting of a group of handsome white bungalows, has been functioning for about six months, and the first fifty thirteen-year-old pupils from North Africa and various European countries have already become thoroughly acclimatized.

During a visit to Jaffa, Mr. Ben Guriony Prime Minister of Israel, said that he wished to visit the Jews of the USSR just as be had visited the Jewish community in the United States. He added that Russian* Jewry did not at present take part in the building up of the State of Israel and expressed the hope that a time would come when millions of Jews from the USSR would help develop an independent Jewish life in their own country.
Haifa, Clamorously beautiful, with forests crowning its summit and the blue Mediterranean at its feet, is Israel's foremost industrial town. One feels the pulsation of its dynamic heart in the Haifa Bay area�30,000 dunams .of J.N.F. land, where palm and tamarisk still grow amidst the busy scene. To-day there is little to mark its former character; the desert of 1932�when development began here�seems impossible in the face of Haifa Bay of I960. Factories .hum with light industry along the roadside, aTid beyond, with Mount Carmel for a back-drop, the funnels of the Nesher Cement Works send up clouds of white smoke day and night.
Beyond the factories are the "kiryo't," the residential quarters which have become townships: Kiryat Haim, Kiryat Shmuel, Kiryat Bialik, Kiryat Motzkin � each of them housing workers employed in the industrial zone, who supplement their income by husbandry about their homes. No longer far-flung cottages smothered in sand, the "kiryot" are now made up of row upom row of charming homes with vines trailing along the verandahs and gay sun-umbrellas stuck into the lawns to cast another spot of shade in- the lush gardens. These housing projects, like the land they are built upon, were developed through the initiative of the Jewish National Fund; homes for. twenty thousand people.
Just beyond the "kiryot," amid the still existing dunes, thousands of flats are going up at a rate which, within the next few years, will double the population of this area, mainly with new Immigrants. The newest of these housing projects, where construction has already been completed, is Gav Yam "B", built by "Amidar," the National Housing Company, to which the Jewish National Fund -has contributed some two million pounds in shares.
Gav Yam looks nude alongside the "kiryot". Not a tree rises from the wastes to throw a patch of relief, and the hot sun glares down on the glowing sand and over the endless identical two-storey buildings. Yet if ever a place looked full of promise, this new residential area can make that claim. Brand-new signs point to the butcher's and the baker's in several languages, including, of course, Hebrew. Packing cases marked "Nach Haifa, Israel" still lie about. The garbage tins behind each house are shining new. A gardener could almost date the time of settlement here by the height of the corn stalks, the sweet potato foliage and the ambitious young lawns.
There are many employment problems in the community but Gav Yam is <not all hard luck. To begin with, the homes though small, are excellent. A family up to three or four persons receives a flat of one bedsitting room and

one large kitchen and bath. Larger families receive a flat of a larger room with a very much larger kitchen that can be partitioned off into another small room, and bath. The rental for these homes�after small initial payment (�36) for various installations�is only from �5% to �7% per mor.ih. Those wishing to purchase the flat in which they live pay�in addition to the rental, �250�on entry and �100 a year for eight years, after which the flat is theirs. Once this course is followed, additional building is allowed ini the form of a closed-in terrace, in line with "Amidar" plans for such appendages. The houses are airy, cool in summer and warm in winter, and are all" built of quality materials with fittings that are attractive and durable.
Gav Yam's population is made up of a kaleidoscope of peoples, and it will take time to create a common cultural denominator between them. The man who showed me about, for instance was not only incurable, but also infectious. "My children were born in Paris," he said, "and my eldest boy is there to-day studying art. But after the Vichy regime I could no longer be happy in Old France. I stayed on until a few months ago and here I am now with my wife and two youngsters, all of us trying to learm Hebrew and to find our place in this land where we feel we will always belong." He has an administrative job; he has bought the flat in which he lives. "Je suis content," he concluded.
But in the home of the Indian Jew into which he took me, there was not this satisfaction. The father of the household, a man as black as ebony and with classical features, sprang up from the floor where he was sitting cross-legged and said: "Work�what I want is work; I have been here over a month and I have had no more than five days of work." He showed me his work card, and added in English, "I fear I shall have to apply for relief, and that is not what I have come to Israel to do." _,. ; ^
The distress on the Indian's face was obvious, but the setting accentuated his misery even more.
