BUSINESSMEN HERE FORM ASSbciATiON FOR
EXPORT PROMbtlON
Prominent businessmen and industrialists in Toronto are planning an association for the advancement of imports from Israel and for assisting fledgling Israeli industries to develop new markets in North America. This non-profit association has been launched after a meeting of upon the initiative of Wolf Szyd-low, president of Caneurop.
Szydlow informed us that tiis experience in importing parts from Israel for lighting fixtures hasbeen encouraging enough for him to continue in this initiative and to help develop further interest in Israeli products oa the Canadian market. .
Israel, Szydlow stated, cannot be helped by philanthropy only. In order to live, to become independent, the country must eifport; it must provide work for more immigrants and unemployed.
Furthermore, there are certain products manufactured in Israel, in which Is* raelis are specializing, that Canada can use. An order of as little as $10,000 could
WOLFSZn>LOW
provide a livelihood for a famUy of four. Wouldn't that be a wonderful way of helping Israel?" he stressed.
An importer of Israeli goods, Szydlow has discovered that certain products ; - ,especially brass, crystal, glassware, plumbr ing fixtures and the like-could easily be sold on the Canadian Market because of their competitive prices and first-class manufacturing facilities in Israel.
Szydlow is leaving for Europe and Israel after the holidays. In Israel, where his business is tied in with factories in Bat Yam, Petah Tikva, Jaffa and Bnai Braq, he will put the final touches upon the establishment of crystal-producing facilities which, in his opinion, can give almost immediate employment to. 1,000 families against a comparatively low investment.
Also, Szydlow will negotiate with experts in this field in certain European countries; he will endeavor to induce them to move to Israel to teach Israelis how to produce crystalware. Negotiations already have begun.
In recent years, crystal products, including chandeliers and fine glasses which traditionally were the monopoly of Bohemian manufacturers, are being made in Italy and %)ain. In this commodity too Israel would be competitive if aided properly.
The association Szydlow launched has instructed him, while in Israel, to finalize several deals there so that importers into Canada may begin taking in substantial quantities.

Jerusalem, (JCNS) -new bridge movement" by-pass the Jewish Agency and Zionist organisations In attracting Western immigrants to Israel was urged in a resolution passed by the Hitachdut Olei Britannia, (British SetUers* Association) at its 17th annual conference here.
Like another resolution calling for the establishment of a Public Council for Immigration, it reflected anger at the way in which Zionist organisations and political parties have ignored the various settlers' associations in matters affecting their members, about which the associations have specialised knowledge.
The conference, a lively one, which was attended by 100 delegates representing 3,000 Hitachdut members and 14,000 British setUers, was unanimous in condemning the ineptitude of the Jewish Agency in dealing with immigration from the West.
The Hitachdut's honorary president, Mr. Abba Eban, the Foregin Minister, addressed the opening session of the conference, attended by 450 people, on Saturday evening. The Hitachdut's main task should not be to make life easier for immigrants who had already arrived, he said, but to issue 'a missionary appeal" to those who had not come to settle in Israel.
Potential Reservoir in U.S.A,
But a totally opposing view was put by the former Israeli Ambassador in Washington and president-designate of the Hebrew University, Mr, Avraham Harman.
He told delegates that there was a vast reservoir of potential immigrants in the United States, but what they Wanted wais not clarion calls, it was jobs, housing and assistance with their absorption into Israeli society. It was the settlers' associations' job to concentrate on these matters.
Mr. Yaacov Morris, the deputy director of the Foreign Ministry's information division, said that every effort must be made to steer clear of ttie'moribund* Zionist Orgahlsatioh and itspo-

from the West Mrs. LUyBeyrack-Cohw,
the outgoii^ president of the Hitachdut, was equally outspoken and critical. Only a change in the eatlre nature of Israeli officialdom could offer prospects of encouraging large-scale immigration from the West, in her view.
A former Mapai official, Mrs. Beyrack-Cohen told delegates that the solution to immigration and absorption problems was not to take them away from the Agency and hand them over to the Government. Government officials were 'cut from the same doth' as their Agency colleagues, and the latter were still geared to mass immigration from countries where Jews were in distress.
A new executive was elected, comprising: Mr. Yaacov Morris (Jerusalem): Dr. Justin Phillips (Arad), who proposed the resolution for a Public Council for Immigration; Mr. Aharon Ben-Yosef (Tel Aviv): Mr. Norman Oster (Tel Aviv); Miss Naomi Lebor (Haifk); Mr. Joe Isaacs (Netanya); Miss Linda Derber (Jerusalem) and Lieutenant-Colonel Shlomo ErelU
lii addition, seven members will be elected by the Hitachdut's branches. The executive elects its own officers, including the Hitachdut's national chairman;

JEWISH COMMIES HNALLY PROTEST
Paris, (JCNS)-There has been a sharp reaction here, notably < by Jewish Communist circles, to the antisemi-tic statements and events in Poland.

THE CONFERENCE
by Ben Miner
In my opinion, the most recent economic conference held in Israel has demons-frated once more how important it is for the Jewish state to monopolize capital and private initiative-interest in order to strengthen its economy.
The presence in Jerusalem of so many'distjnguish-ed, industrial leaders from all free countries including Canada, the United States, Latin America and Western Europe has encouraged all wtM) believe in private enterprise.
The time has come for Israel's economy to grow up, to leave the Juvenile stage of relying upon favors and being dependent upon investors in order to re-
alize rehurns. This is how business runs; a modem country, an industrial country is Big Business.
The Six-Day-War resulted in uniting the Jewish people as never before; it also eliminated -ftt least, I hope so - some points of friction among different group s. Thus the time has arrived to mov6 in the direction of unity, in the field of economy as well as in the area of politics.
This time of year, when we celebrate the exodus from slavery into freedom, it is my fervent hope that w^also dedicate ourselves to economic freedom - the only way to secure Israel's future.
