The prediction that both the United Palestine Appeal and the Joint Distribution Committee campaigns will exceed their goals was made here today by Harold Jacobi, chairman of the U.P.A. New York drive, in an interview with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.

American Jewry, Mr. Jacobi said, was more than over aroused to appreciation of the Jewish position abroad. He expressed the hope that within the year an organization would be established in the United States mobilizing support of non-Zionists for Palestine and support for solution of the Jewish problem in central and Eastern Europe.

Mr. Jacobi left today for the Continent and will return to New York in three weeks for the formal opening of the U.P.A. campaign.
