More than 5,000 representatives of labor, business, Zionist and fraternal organizations tonight attended the Third Seder here arranged by the Kistadrut at the Hotels Waldorf Astoria and Commodore.
The overflow audiences in both hotels were addressed by Dr. Dov Joseph, Israel’s Minister of Communication; Henry Morgenthau Jr.; James G. McDonald, former U.S. Ambassador in Israel; Dr. Nahum Goldman; Isaac Hamlin, general secretary of the $10,000,000 Histadrut campaign in the United States, and others.
The speakers urged the audiences to support the Israel Bond Drive and emphasized the role of the Jewish State in international affairs. Mr. McDonald said that Americans can count on Israel to resist aggression and to line up behind the United States. Mr. Morgenthau declared that Israel is the most vigorous stronghold of democracy in the eastern Mediterranean.
