Warning to
Advertisers to
Watch Rocketeers

During the past few weeks,
Southern homes and business
offices have been flooded with
solicitations for advertise
ments by New York maya
zines which either do not cir
culate here or do not publish
regularly.
In the instance of the major
offender. whose dishonest ap-
proach of sending bills for un-
authorized ads is being inves-
tigated by proper authorities.
it has been established that
the paper thus far has printed
only one issue for the adver-
tisers.
We warn again against this
outrageous racket. We urge
those receiving soliciting let
tiers with bills to forward them
to us together with the envel-
ope in which they appeared in
order that they be presented
to the proper authorities for
action.

ISRA FL TO
name n EW
HEAD SOON

JERUSALEM, (JTA)-Is-
rael's parliament will meet
Dec. 8 to elect the Jewish
states second president and
successor to the late Chain
w elZmann.
In view Of the refusal of Prof.
Albert Einstein to accept nomina-
tion to the presidency, it became
clear this week that the second
president of Israel would be an Is
rael citizen and resident of the
country rather than an outstanding
personality invited from abroad.
Nominations for the presidency
were to close this Friday and there
was strong belief that the choice
would lie between Josef Sprinzak,
Speaker of the Knesset, and Isaac
Ben Xvi, chairman of the Jewish
National Council (Vaad Leumi)
the supreme representative body
of the Yishub under the British
mandate. Both are members of the
Mapai Party.
Also named by the press here as
potential choices for the presidency
were DR.. Nahum Goldmann, chair
man of the Jewish Agency Execu-
tive, and Chief Rabbi Isaac Herzog.

Israel in Need
OF US. Skius,
Visitor Says

American technical skill in agri-
culture and other fields is vital for
development of Israel, Jacov Ber-
man, American representative of
the labor Zionist organization,
Haikar Haoved, said here last week.
Berman addressed Phoenix labor
Zionist organizations at meeting
at Beth Hebree Synagogue. He was
also a guest at the Oneg Shabat
held after Friday evening services
at Congregation Beth El.
Berman described an American
model agricultural colony = the
Beer Tuvia Bet project = being de-
veloped south of Tel Aviv. Ten
American families already have
moved in and settled on their
farms, he reported, and 20 addi-
tional farms and houses are ready
for new settlers. The project is be-
ing financed with money from the
U. S. and credits from the Jewish
Agency.
Partly Cooperative
The colony applies the co-opera-
tive principle only to the buying
and selling of products. Settlers
receive individual profits from their
own land and live as they please.
The village eventually will con-
sist of 80 families, of which "a will
be Individual farmholders and the
rest will be artisans whose services
will be needed by the community.
The individual settler will re-
-eeife bara, with capacity for
four cows; a chicken coop for so
fowl, tool shed with some of the
necessary tools, a horse to be
shared with one neighbor, a cow,
calf and so chickens.
Beer Tuvia Bet is being built un-
der the supervision of Tnuat Ham
oshavim. The cornerstone was laid
recently at a ceremony attended by
Levi Eshkol, Israeli finance minis
ter, and Yitshak Korn, general sec
retary of Tnuat Hamoshavim.

IsraeIis Eat Less
Than British Folk

NEW YORK = The daily cal
ory intake of the average Israeli
is not much higher this year
than last - 1851 calories as
compared to 2,613 calories in
1851. That is why Israel is lean
ing heavily on the United Jew
ish Appeal for funds to accel-
crate the country's agricultural
production.
IsraePs nutritional standards,
according to a recent survey, are
below those of Norway, Britain
and the U.S., although they are
higher than those of Egypt and
Greece.
Delegates from all sections of
the United States who will gath
er at the UJA's Annual Nation
al Conference in New York on
Dec. IL, 13 and IA will consider
new means for aiding Israel to
expand its production of food.

Subscription
DriUe Slated

Subscriptions will be sold for
The Phoenix Jewish News in
1853.
In the past, the price of your
subscription has been deducted
from the pledge made by you to
the United Jewish Welfare
Fund. The Jewish Community
Council paid for subscriptions to
people newly arrived in Phoenix
and non-givers to the Welfare
Fund.
The expiration of this agree
ment is welcomed by the pub
fishers of The News. The con-
tract ends March 1, 1858, and
all subscriDtions will start as
of that date.
They will be sold for $3.50
for one year and SIS for two
years until Jan. 1, 1858. After
that, the regular subscription
price will be So for one year and
$5.75 for two years.
A city-wide drive for new SUBJ
scriptions will get under way
after Jan. l, 1858.
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1952-11-28

move out Jan. L.
"We have as yet had no official
word that Jan. ! will be the unal-
terable date when we will have to
move" explained Maurice D..
Brown, Center president. "But we
have been given to understand that
such will be the case. We had asked
that an official letter be sent us
fixing the date specifically. AS yet
the owners have not sent US this
letter, although we know that we
must expect it soon."
Property on which the Center is
located at 2211 N. Central Ave. is
owred by the Dwight B. Heard es-
tate. A large cooperative apart
ment development is planned there.
New Site Picked
Brown revealed, meanwhile, that
site for a new and permanent
center has been selected and pur-
chase agreement is being negotiat-
ed. He said, however. that "prema-
ture" disclosure of it's location
would "jeopardize its purchase by
u.s."
Although no one can be
blamed" explained Brown, Eve
have lost several sites because of a
raising of the price after it became
known that we were interested in
it. Just as soon as the final papers
on the site are signed, sealed and
delivered, we will publicize our
choice. Meanwhile, we ask every
body to have a little patience and
confidence. Buying a site for the
community is much harder job
than buying one for ourselves"
Can't Meet Deadline
Some Center leaders had hoped
that a site might be obtained and
at least partial construction under
way by the time the Center was
forced to evacuate. But Brown said,
at is now perfectly obvious that
even if we were Immediately pre-
pared to do so, we could not pos
sibly build a new Center in time
to meet the proposed deadline for
our removal"
A campaign is being conducted to
raise $15O,OO0 for the new Center
and enough money has been SUBJ
scribed to cover the cost of land.
The drive is being handled by a
group of about 80 workers in the
Jewish community, aided by small
number of civic leaders who have
volunteered to raise money from
non-Jewish sources.
Handicapped for Time
"Our prime difficulty" said Sam
Langerman, campaign chairman,
''is lack of time. 1t takes a great
deal of time to do this job proper
ly, and unfortunately time is our
most precious commodity.
"We have deliberately stayed
away from any interference with
the Red Feather Fund campaign in
which many of us are workers as
well as givers. We certainly do not
want to get in the way of the all
important United Jewish Welfare
Fund campaign on which planning
has already started. All of this
means we had to compress our ini-
tial effort into a very short time,
which is soon to be terminated for
this year."
