BarkIeY Tells Jews
u. 5. Will Consider
Loans for Israel

Future appeals for financial help
by Israel will receive sympathetic
consideration by the American
Government" Vice President
Barkley declared last night.
America was the first nation
In the world to extend financial
help to Israel" Mr.. Barkley re-
minded more than 1000 delegates
at the closing session of the Jewish
National Funds 50th anniversary
conference in the Hotel Statler.
"You can be assured that any fur
ther needs on the part of Israel
will have sympathetic considera-
ton by the American Govern
ment."
The Vice President praised the
Jewish National Fund as being
one of the most important fac
tors in the building up of sound
economy and democratic society
in the state of Israel"
Land Policy Praised.
He particularly lauded the or
ganization's policy of acquiring
land in Israel to be. held as the
property of the whole Jewish peo-
pie in perpetuity.
1.-THE land policy inaugurated
by the Jewish National Fund has
saved the land of Israel from
many a danger and pitfall which
have proved the bane of most
of the colonial countries" the
speaker said. For one thing, it
has prevented speculation in
land. For another, it has helped
avoid the assemblage of large
land properties in the hands of
a few. Far from being So
cialism, this is wise social policy
which pays dividends in terms
Of individual contentment and
national well-being."

Government ito bring the great
weight of its diplomatic influence
towards Fastening the conclusion
