Representatives of Keren Hayesod and the Jewish National Fund visit the East Fair complex in Tel Aviv to observe the preparations of the Israeli Pavilion at the New York International Exhibition. Over a hundred people work on the preparations. A group of workers prepares maps and models of the various Jewish settlements. Additional maps display the war against malaria in Palestine and the agricultural produce that are grown in the area. Other than the maps, the exhibition includes a head sculpture of the poet Haim Nachman Bialik and large bronze sculptures that symbolize the Torah, labor, and agriculture. Architect Aryeh Elhanani is The pavilions artistic director.
