Immigrants 10
Rural Lands Is
Urged IntoLa10

TEL AVN, (PTA)-A demand
that Israel adopt law requiring
every youth and new immigrant
to spend two years in settlements
to colonize the barren areas OF
Israel was made here this week
at the seventh world conference
of the Birth Trumpeldor organi-
zation.
It was made after the reading
of a message from Premier David
Ben Gurion appealing to the
youth of Israel to settle the bar
rem areas of the Negev and Cali
lee. They urged establishment of
a Joint committee of all Israeli
youth organizations to send in
structors to immigrant camps to
encourage the new arrivals to
take up life in the settlements.
The Premier singled out IsraePs
coastal and border areas as places
for the establishment of new set
Elements by the immigrants. He
also called for a new great ma
tional swing to the land" assert
ing that Israeli agriculture must
be extensive in area and inten-
sive in character"

Act To Relieve
Unenlpl0yment

TEL AVN, (JTA)-The Haifa
Labor Council this week took its
first action to relieve the un-
employment situation created by
the arrival of huge numbers OF
immigrants and the partial de-
mobilization of the army.
The Council has voted to abol-
ish all overtime and to share
the work that would normally be
done on an overtime basis with
the jobless. The Council, how
ever, warned that this action will
not solve the unemployment prob
lem, only. alleviate it.
The Jaffa Chamber of Com
merce said this week after a
conference that it received the
Israeli austerity program not

with deep concern.

ABSORPTION OF
100000 YEARLY
TAX RESOURCES

TEL AVN, (JTA) = The an
nual absorption of an expected
100000 immigrants was predicted
this week by Premier David Ben
Gurion, addressing the seventh
Histadrut convention.
The Israeli Premier estimated
that it would cost half a billion
dollars to bring in and absorb
100000 newcomers and provide
at least 10000 to 10000 housing
units and IL to Is thousand agrl-
cultural units needed for them
annually.
The Premier said that exports
now reached only 100000
pounds (about $9,OOO,oOO) an
nually. He called for a radical
increase, adding that otherwise
IsraePs economic independence
was endangered.
Finance Minister Eliezer Zap
Ian told the conference that the
"austerity" program recently ap-
proved by Parliament did not en-
tirely solve the economic and fl
nancial problems facing the ma
ton, particularly the problem of
the adverse trade balance. lsraers
income, he said, must reach 5O
billion pounds ($15O,OOO,OOO) an

is is delicious - extremely tasty

Speaking Of Negro enterprise,
ed by Mr.. | Hobson is doing a
fine piece Of work. The lovely
new market, open in the summer
and closed i'll winter at 10th q
Vincennes has made all the old
merchants with their stale let
tuce, dried up oranges and with
cred tomatoes sit up and take
notice. Immediately they were
forcel to get better merchandise
for "the colored folk" in "the
Neighborhood," because of the
plump red aapples and the beau
tiful big grapefruit and other
foods of the new Negro owned
business. {. Next to it, is a coal
business owned by Mr.. Hobson
and around the corner - A gar.

This is the sort Of progress
our Negro bushes men must
