Adults wept tears of joy as the Jewish children of Motza today sang the Jewish Arbor Day songs at the conclusion of the planting of the first eight trees in the Einstein Forest at Kirya Tanavim in honor of Dr. Albert Einstein. M. M Ussishkin of the Jewish National Fund, who presided, said that Einstein had benefited humanity and “that we are perpetuating his name. Our answer to the attackers is construction.” The German consul also planted a tree on behalf of the Reich. The Einstein Forest will have 10,000 trees when fully planted.

Executive, well educated and thoroughly experienced in community centers, publicity, lecturing. campaigning and general organization work, available now. Full particulars on request. Address, Box 16, care of Jewish Daily Bulletin.
