Dirksen Emphasizes Israel Bond Need
Senator  Everett   M.   Dirlcsen of Illinois.   Minority   Leader of    I United States Senate, praised the State of Israel as a growing cer of freedom, and called for support of its economic development throi i I the Israel Bond drive.
The Senate Minority Leader, who has visited Israel twice, described the progress which the country is achieving through the hard work and self-sacrifice of its people.
"Here is a little country." he said, "growing, progressing, work¬ ing hard, long hours. I know this because I stayed with them in the cooperatives to find out day and night what they did with their time.
"I am not talking by the book, I am talking from my own experi¬ ence. I can tell you that the prog¬ ress they are achieving costs money. "That is what happens to the money which you subscribe for Israel Bonds."
Senator Dirksen spoke at a dinner in Washington. D. C. installing the Board of Governors of that city's Israeli Bond drive for the current year.
The Illinois legislator deplored the hostility of the Arab states toward Israel and expressed the hope that tensions in the Middle East would decrease.
"The people of the Republic of Israel," he declared, "are trying to articulate their destiny of freedom. They ask only to be left alone, to master and develop the resources that the Lord implanted there. Is that too much to ask for any people?
"I studied the Negev of Israel,
and I think I know something about it. The real need is water.
"How that soil produces, how it blooms if only its thirst is slaked by water! The kiss of water even on desert soil makes it bloom as if it were the Promised Land before the gaze of Moses himself. But water takes money."
Pointing out the importance of housing for Israel's growing popu¬ lation. Senator Dirksen noted the country now has 2,500.000 inhabi¬ tants, but expects to reach 3.000,000 within  a  few  years.
"You don't dump people out on the desert." he observed. "You don't dump them out under a starry sky. I know how cool it is at night there; I know what the sun can do in the daytime. I know there has to be shelter. But housing costs money."
Senator Dirksen also stressed the need of expanding agricultural pro¬ duction and the exploitation of mineral resources, including oil. Ife called the work of Israel Bonds "blessed" in assuring.the economic future of Israel.
