UIF Victory Dinner Scheduled for June 12
"Speedy action is nece.ssary to finish the United Jewish Fund campaign .successfully," Samuel M. Mellon, 1951 carppalgn chair¬ man, announced this week. 'More cards are coming in 'signed with increases each day, but it Is all too easy to slacken our efforts on the last lap. I hope every worker In each of the Divisions will see his prospects now so that we can end the drive successfully as planned. We want to celebrate a victorious conclusion at the victory dinner Sunday. June 12. 6:.'i0 p. m., at tht Hotel Southern. We can do so If everyone will Immediately follow Ihrough to the completion of their cards.
"Volunteer campuigners. huve been seeing prospective contribu¬ tors every day since the cam¬ paign began May 20. However, we know that some may have been mi.ssed. If your campaign¬ er has not arrived as yet, we urge you to make the contribu¬ tion as quickly as jiusslbie. Be ready lo contribute when culled upon."
Mr. Melton staled that afler attending the United .lewish Appeal National Action Confer¬ ence in Chicago, he was more convinced than ever before of the necessity for generous giving and quick action lo enable Israel to absorb the 2(10,000 Jews
from all over the world who will come to that country this year. "It was a thrilling experience for Mrs. Mellon and myself to be among those of the 1200 rep- re.sentatlves of Jewish commun- itie.s throughout the country who greeted David Ben-Gurion and heard him tell of the contri¬ bution the United J'ewish Appeal has made to the creation and development of the State and the aid it is contiiYilng lo offer in the solution of presi^nt and new  problems.
"The mosl inspiring part of the conference," said Mr. Melton, '"was the line up of communities
to present checks in payment of United Jewish Appeul pledges Ui the Prime Minister. Mr. B/n- Gurion said that he had .s/en many queues in his time—line ups for food, etc., hut this was the first time he had seen people sland in line for an hour to hand in checks. He referred lo onl.y one comparable experience: that of seeing young people join the Army of the new Slale when It was ullacked in its eurly duys.
"I hope us many campaigners us possiliie will allend the yiclory dinner .lune 12 und Ihul we i-an write a glorious conclusion lo the campaign."

"Our women seem lo be im¬ pressed with the urgency of this campaign," Mrs. Wasserstrom said,  "and  the general  level of
giving is high." The enthusiasm which the majors gained from their contact with Mrs. Brallove, the National chairman of the Women's Division, has carried Ihrough to the workers and the givers. We realize that we must push this campaign to a speedy victory if we are lo rescue lhe men,  women  and children  who
