Satisfaction with the results of his visit to the United States was expressed here today by Chief Rabbi Isar J. Untermann of Tel Aviv at a press conference called prior to his return to Israel next week.
Rabbi Untermann, who visited many cities in the country on behalf of the Israel Bond drive, estimated that as a result of his visits more than $2,000,000 worth of Israel bonds were sold in these cities. He said he was gratified by the interest American non-Jews take in the Jewish State as proven by the warm participation of governors and mayors in the campaign meetings which he addressed.
