Plans to intensify the sale of Israel bonds in the United States and other countries were discussed by key leaders here today at a luncheon attended by Robert Briscoe, Jewish Mayor of Dublin.
Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, vice president of the Israel Bond Organization, described Israel bonds as ” the key to Israel’s economic development program., At a time when Israel continues to face tensions and crisis as a result of Arab hostility, ” he said,” we must guarantee a flow of development capital through the Israel bond drive. Without these dollars, Israel will face severe difficulties in maintaining her economic structure at full strength. She counts on us for an increased level of Israel bond sales. “
