The two-day inaugural conference of the Israel Bond Organization, officially launching its 1956 drive to raise $75,000,000 for Israel’s economic expansion through the sale of bonds, will take place here this weekend. More than 800 Jewish community leaders from all parts of the United States and Canada will attend the parley.
Principal speakers at the conference will be Dr. Joseph Burg. Israel cabinet member, and David Horowitz, governor of the Central Bank of Israel. They arrived in this country this week to assist in the campaign.
