Officials of the United Jewish

American Jews to increase their
contributions to the organization
to support the record flow of immi
grants into Israel.
The session, to which nearly
800 Jewish leaders from all over
the country have been invited,
heard Judge Morris Rothenberg
of New York, national chairman
Of the Embarrassing group, say
that 10000 immigrants to the new
Jewish state are living in tents
and overcrowded barracks.
On the speakers dais in the
hotel ballroom stood a tent like
those used by the newcomers to
Israel. Actors huddled in the tent
took the part of refugees waiting
for decent homes. Large banners
and photo-murals urged "get them
out of the tents" and "only cash
can do the job"
Contributions Are Dropping.
Judge Rothenberg said that in
the first eight months of last year,
the appeal received contributions
totaling $122,540,516, while $4,000
Jewish refugees were being
brought to Israel. In the CORE
spending period this year, he said,
contributions have dropped off to
$84,189,698 while 10000 immi-
grants reached Israel.
