More than $500,000 in cash was presented here today to the 1952 campaign of the United Jewish Appeal as 200 Jewish leaders from major communities throughout New Jersey formally brought their state into the campaign.

This action highlighted an all-day session in the Alexander Hamilton Hotel of a regional conference which met to consider implementation of urgent immigration, settlement, welfare and rehabilitation programs in Israel, Europe, the Moslem countries and the United States. The conference heard addresses by Michal Harel, Miss Israel of 1952, and Avraham Harman, director of the Israel Embassy’s Office of Information.
