The pledges received for
the 1977 United Jewish Fund
Campaign, through July 15,
"Rave already passed the to¬
tal raised in the 1976 cam¬
paign, according to a state¬
ment made today by Irving
Schottenstein, chairman of
the 1977 United Jewish Fund
Campaign of the Columbus
Jewish Federation.
"I am proud.to be able to
announce today that we have
received a total of
$2,664,136.00 in pledges for
the .1977.' campaign," said
Schottenstein, "as compared
' to $2,473,155,00 at the same
time last year. We have al¬
ready received more in
pledges, for the 1977 cam¬
paign than the total received
for the 1976 campaign, which
was $2,636,727."
"As magnificent as these,
figures are, and as indica¬
tive as they are of the fact
that the Jews of Columbus
are/responding positively to
the -needs' of our people in
Columbus, in Israel and
throughout the world," said
Schottenstein, "the fact is
that we have done our alloca¬
ting on the basis of a final
campaign achievement'. of
$2,727,743. Unless we reach
at least that figure, we will
be unable to meet the obliga¬
tions-to which we have al¬
ready committed ourselves,
and services in, Columbus
and in Israel will be deprived
' Irving Schottenstein
of much needed funds.
"Further, we have re¬
ceived 3659 pledges to the
1977 campaign, but that'does
not represent anywhere near
the total number' of adult
Jews in Columbus. I want to
express my appreciation to
everyone who has pledged,
and to all who have worked
in the campaign, but I want
to urge everyone who has not
yet made a pledge to search
his or her heart and deter¬
mine if a pledge is, indeed, a
■ possibility. There are very
few among us who do not
have the ability to make
even a token pledge to the
needs of our people, and I
strongly urge that every at¬
tempt be made by those who
have not yet pledged to do
so," he concluded.

have not found them to be so
adamant in -their positions
that they are not eager for
accommodations.." He said
they all agree on the need for
peace based on United Na¬
tions Security Council Reso¬
lutions -242 and 338. Carter
said that "now is the time to
be quiet on the specifics" of
a Mideast settlement..
, White House Press Secre¬
tary Jody Powell later ex¬
plained that this decision to
be silent about specifics was
a "new phase" in the peace¬
making process and that
"this phase is a sign of prog¬
ress." Begin also said at his
press conference that there
should be a "moratorium"
on political discussions until
the Geneva Conference.
Begin at his press confer¬
