Don't miss this .opportunity. It Is in deed a golden one,
NATHAM Lamport I-
.parturc of his son, Samuel C. Lamport, for Palestine Friday on the Olympic.
Mr. Nathan Lamport, who declared that he is making available at once the sum of .'^100,000 for the Foundation, .stated that he intends to add to the sum already .set aside when the organization H)f the Foundation will have been effected.
Mr. Lamport has authorized his son, Samuel C. Lamport, who went lo Pal¬ estine in connection with various Zion¬ ist activities, to take immediate steps to organise the Foundation, which is to be known as the Lamport Free I.X)an Foun¬ dation of Palestine.
In his statement announcing the Foun¬ dation, Mr. Lamport said:
"The Foundation will be run very much on the same lines as our Hebrew Free Loaii Society here, which has been oper¬ ating 50 successfidly for many decades. I ain committed to the idea that 'g'milath chesed' is one of our greatest Jewish ideals—it offers those in need an oppor tunity to help themselves.
"I thank Gnd for the privilege He lias bestowed on mc of behig in a position to serve our people in Palestine in this manner, I know that they want to stand on their own feet without fear or favor from anyone. I know from my experi¬ ence in Palestine that what they want from their brethren in America is en¬ couragement towards sclf-hclp.
"I have no misgivings as tn what the outcome in Palestine will be. I know that with the help of the Almighty we will have throughout Palestine hundreds of successful communities that will reflect great, lasting credit on Jewry the world over. I want to do my share in this great romance of revitalizing our Holy Land. I want to show our devotcil, ener¬ getic pioneers in Palestine tbat American Jewry is going to take it.s share of the burden in Palestine in the way that know to h*i the most congenial to their honor, to their pride, and to the situation as it exists today."
Mr. Lamport, who is the president of the Yeshiva College of America, was one of the iirst to initiate the $5,000,000 cam¬ paign for Ihe Yeshiva College hy a con¬ tribution of $100,000 which he increased to !f[fOO,000 when he celebrated his sev¬ entieth birthday recently.
NFAV YOKK—A call to Jews of all shades of opim'rm tu consl<ler the upluiild- iiig of I'alesfiiie not only (he task of Zionists bnt as nn all-Jewish |)ri)hlem was sonnded hv T.onis Marshall, Dr. Chaim Weirmaiin and Judge Irving Lehman, the s|)eaker.s at the Weii^m.inn-Maishall har¬ mony dinner licid Tuesday night at tlu* Biltmore Hotel.
Xcarly ROO iirouiiiieut Xew Ycjrk Jews, Zionists ¦ and non-Zioni.sts, attended the dinner which w.is giveii hy a special com¬ mittee representing Zionists and non-Zion¬ ists nn the occasioii of the conclusion of the accord in American Jewry.
Details uf the Loinpositinii of the non¬ partisan experts'Commission wbich is soon to sail for Palestine to make a survey and report its findings lo Ihe Jewish Agencv will be made public in a few da\s, Mr, Marshall stated.
Erecting To All The World "Willi the Prophet we say *Pcacc to him who i-; far off and peace to him who i.s ne;ir.' That is our greeting to all the world. Let us be united in good works. Wc have enemies from without, I am entirely, indifferent to them. Let there not he enemies from within. That would be a tragedy. Then let us all imite in this great cause, T-et us speed it. Let us feel that it is our work, our' problem and anollier glorious page will bc \\Tit- ten- in the annalb of the Jews of the world," Mr. Marshall declared.
Jildgc Lehman, who was toastmaster, in introducing the speakers of the eve¬ ning, addressed himself lo Mr. Marshall and Dr. Weizmann, saying: "Vou, as true leaders have called upon your fol¬ lowers to let time decide between con¬ flicting views and in the meanwhile, for all Jews to join after study in work upon which all Jews can and should agree.
"This gathering is the answer to jour call. Henceforth through your efforts there should bc respect for different view- pohits, hut united effort to hruig ntiout the realisation of Jewish aspirations, to carry out our duty and all our duties to onr country, to ourselves, and to our Jewish brothers."
Since the War Dr. Wcizmaini, who was given a rous¬ ing ovation, many in the audience singing "Hatikvah" while they stood, in his ad¬ dress reviewed the development in the Zionist movement since the war. He laid emphasis on the necessity of alleviating the present economic crisis in Palestine and paving the way for further develop¬ ment in accordance with the country's capability of absorption.
I think it i.s my duty to say that tins Conimissidii, which is about to set out to go to Palestine and the East to test and to try is imt a ronimissioii which is to decide whether Palestine is lo be built up," Dr. VVeizmann said. "That is a decision which was made thmiaands of years agn. It is to decide how and what arc the best ways and means for building il ijp. It is not possible, and even if it were possible I wouldn't presume lo an¬ ticipate the results of .'^uch an iiMpiiry. But it is perfcrth clear to me that a great deal might have to be changed, modified/ a great deal criticized, a great deal ap-\ proved. I think I may say on behalf of every conscientious Zionist that wc wel¬ come a fair, impartial, unbiased inquiry, knowing quite well tbc result of it can only be the furthering and the strength¬ ening of our efforts.
HolpinEf In Work I venture to say the best of the sons of Israel, whether they label themselves Zionists or not have understood and hj-ve felt that tbe time bas come when there should not be a single Jew who should withhold his hand from helping to lay a Slone in the Yerushalaim' Sbcl Mattah in order to bring about the realisation of Yerushalaim Shel Maalah.
"I am addressing myself to you, Mr. Marshall, who has as a leader of Ameri¬ can Jewry led the way towar<l the real¬ ization of these fundamenlal aspiralions. It would be banal and trivial for mc to attempt to give a vote of thanks to you. During Ibis year you have reached sev¬ enty years, and you have added to your record of achievements for the Jewish people one more page.which has eternal value, .
"Palestine today is going through a diflicult' time," he said. "It is perhaps not tbc inherent fault of Palestine. ' It is primarily the inherent fault of the sit nation of the Jew.s, particularly in the East. The pressure on the doors of Pal¬ estine was beyond the possibility of the country's absorption. A flood of immi¬ gration came, wliich taxed the capacities of the poor country. We must clear this temporary di^icultJ^ I hope the Zionists, also the non-Zionists, will lend their ef fort to see tbat this temporary difficulty a serious diflirulty, is removed. And the way is open clear for further imiuiry and for further endeavor.
