The Central Council of Jews in Germany issued an appeal today to all Jewish communities in this country, for staunch support of the fund-raising appeal to aid the absorption of Jewish immigrants in Israel.
In a call to all Jews in the country “to show through contributions that a Jewish community exists in Germany, and that it is conscious of its responsibility,” the Council adopted a resolution declaring that “the building of the State of Israel has strengthened the position of all the Jews in the whole world, but there have been many sacrifices on the part of Israel, and more will be called for. It would not be fair to let Israel bear the burden alone. Besides, none of us knows whether he will not one day request Israel’s help as an immigrant.”
