The United Jewish Appeal chairman of the UJA’s national cash campaign Israel D. Fink of Minneapolis, warned today that the UJAs burden of supporting 160,000 Jewish refugees from North Africa in France may become heavier after July 1, if the French Government halts repatriation allowances to refugees of French nationality who have been in France for one year. The cash drive seeks to raise at least $39,500 for urgent relief and rescue work in Europe.
