Asserting that the “Jewish people everywhere, and we in Israel in particular, can be satisfied with the achievements of this year,” Eliahu Epstein, Israeli representative to the United States, last night told a conference of the National Council of the Zionists-Revisionist Organization of America that “nothing could be more dangerous than to assume that we have already reached the end of our winding road and that the existence of the state of Israel is already secure.”
“The future development of Israel,” he continued, “and possibly its very existence, depends on: 1. The strength of the Zionist movement, backing and nourishing the state of Israel: 2. The time factor, which will decide how quickly we shall be able to bring those who need to go, and those who desire to go, to Israel: and 3. The united effort of all elements, classes and parties in Israel.”
