Leaders of the General Zionist party, which emerged victorious in the recent municipal elections in Israel, today issued a warning that if their group does not receive one percent of United Jewish Appeal funds they will initiate a fund-raising campaign of their own in the United States in 1951.
The announcement was made at a press conference addressed by Y. Kubowitzki, managing director of the General Zionist Constructive Fund. He said that during the four years of its existence, the Fund invested about $2,800,000 in settlement enterprises, housing projects, educational institutions and in aid to new immigrants.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
