Dewey D. Stone, prominent Jewish leader, has accepted the national chairmanship of the Community Leadership Division of the Israel Bond Organization, it was announced today by Abraham Feinberg, president. Mr. Stone is national chairman of the United Israel Appeal, and a member of the board of directors of the Development Corporation for Israel, which last month assumed responsibility for the sale of State of Israel bonds.
“The cornerstone of the Israel Bond drive, which has raised $190,000,000 during the past four years, is volunteer leadership,” Mr. Stone said in accepting his new post. “We are confident that this vital effort to strengthen Israel’s economy will continue to attract the active participation of key leaders in Jewish communities throughout the country.”
