A united fund-raising drive for all Jewish causes will be conducted in Mexico in 1953 on the same basis as last year, it was announced here today. Last year’s campaign resulted in the raising of 3,500, 000 pesos, approximately $400,000.
The announcement said that the leaders of the Keren Hayesod adopted the proposal of local Jewish institutions to conduct a joint drive this year. The campaign will be proclaimed in the near future. Josef Sprinzak, Speaker of the Israel Parliament, is expected to arrive here to address the meeting at which the campaign will be launched.
