Mr. Goldman, in his talk to the workers, gave a graphic descrip¬ tion of the history of the Jewish people in the last 30 years against the background of current event? during that period. He managed to bring in 'the work of almost sjl of the agencies supported by the UJF. In concluding his talk, he stated "What more ia there to tell you? You read tho papers and rec¬ ognize the needa just as I do. You interpret the dangers pretty much as 1 have, or else you wouldn't be here this morning.
"$120,000,000, tho goal of UJA irt 1954, is ao. much a bare minimum and so ia yoijr own goal of 17% Increase, when you consider the people involved. You could go on talking about kids, their dreams and your dreams for them. You can deposit witb them yolir hard- won wisdom, and a child can guard it and protest this investment and perhaps reinvest wisely and win a profit- a larger one than you and I have ever dreamed of.
"May 16 Is juat about to begin. Tomorrow'a press may carry a small, seemingly unimportant ac¬ count of this breakfast mceti ng and tho day's activities, but if we have synchronized not only our watches but our hearts with God this morning, then we shall know together that history- really Im¬ portant history - haa been made even more important In thia great conununlty of yours. I have no fears that Jews assembled in meet¬ ings such as this all over America In 19S4 will be able to spell out "Life"- -l-i-f-p-- Jewlah life with pride for all the world to see ancl for all the world to know."
