Only about 2,000 Chalutzim throughout the world are receiving training for emigration to Israel, it was revealed here today by Moshe Kol, head of the youth immigration department of the Jewish Agency, addressing a meeting of the Zionist Youth Organization in Argentina.

Mr. Kol, who is here on a brief visit, deplored this fact. He called for more intensive education among Jewish youth and praised Hadassah for its aid to the Youth Aliyah. However, he appealed to Hadassah to double its aid. He revealed that ten percent of the united drives now being conducted by Jewish communities in Latin American countries will be allocated for Youth Aliyah.
