A Appeals for Cash
The United Jewish Fund office received this week an ur¬ gent message to send cash to maintain its overseas urogram, which is being strained to the limit. William Rosenwald, general chairman of the United Jewi.sh Appeal, called upon the UJF of Columbus to join other federations of welfare funds in a nationwide. UJA .$50,000,000 Cash Collection Drive to meet the iramodiato need. Towards that, a National Rescue Con¬ ference wil be hold In New York, June 8-9.
It ia reported that the Influx to Israel of Jewish Refugees from Egypt, Hungary, other eastern European countries and North Africa continues unabalted. Rosenwald pointed out that the current Immigration is placing an Intolerable burden on the people of larael unless the American Jewish Community assumes in a large measure the financing of transportation and maintenance of new arrivals.
In March, 9000 newcomers entered Israel and approximate¬ ly 10,000 in April. Ho stated, that It takes cash and a great deal of it to supply and keep alive the vital humanitarian facilities that will make the absorption of the refugees in Israel quick and most satisfactory.
Pledges to the ca.mpalgn are indeed hope for the future but cash Is required for the present. Contributors to the 1957 campaign are strongly urged to make whatever payments they can at once oh tholr 1957 pledges to the United Jewish Fund office, 55 E. State St.

Urge Speed-Up of Pledges
Aaron Zacks, general cajyipalgn chairman. Is calling upon all workers to speed up the job.
Messages received at* the United Jewish Fund office from the UJA office of New York report the desperate overseas situation. Mr. Zacks emphasized that undiminished effort by every worker In the UJF campaign is required. If we are to mfeet our share in thod rive to save the lives of more than 100.000 Jewish men, women and children in Europe, North Africa and Egypt. Their plight, it Is reported, is no less desperate now than It was several months ago.
"If we wait until tomorrow to do the work on the campaign for which we had accepted assignments, there may be no to¬ morrow for thousands of our helpless brethren." We cannot, h^ explained, afford the luxury of letting down on doing what can be Columbus' greatest campaign achievement. The record showa (hat the returns to date have been excellent, yet there are many contributors who have not been seen by the workers. It Is Imperative within the next week or two to see all of theso prospective contributors and to obtain increased giving frpm them.   There Is too much at stake to relax.
All divisions are reaching or have'already surpassed their 1056 campaign achievement. Mr. Zacks stated he was con¬ fident that the leadership and the workers will continue dolnig all they can to complete their job as quickly as possible with maximum contributions.
