A call for Argentine Jews to supply both manpower and funds to Israel was voiced here last night by Meir Grossman, veteran Rovisionist leader, who arrived in this country to aid the Argentine United Jewish Appeal campaign.
Speaking at a Zionist banquet, Mr. Grossman doclared that Jews throughout the world have a stake in Israel, therefore they have the right to influonce its policies. He said that the economic situation of the Jewish state is “grave” and called for private investment in Israel as a symbel of middle class initiative in building the state. Finally, he asserted that Zionism’s aims will not have been realized until a majority of the Jews of the world live in “historic Palestine.”
