The 1962-63 United Appeal here, to be launched in September, has set a goal totaling $7,005,437, it was announced today by Mark Upson, general chairman of the drive. The campaign will be carried on intensively for eight weeks, he said.
The new goal is $261,212 higher than the $6,744,225 raised last year, Mr. Upson said. The 1961 goal was $6,665,600. Of the increase, he explained, $61,000 is due to the inclusion of six agencies in the campaign for the first time.
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.
