Noteshttp://www.jta.org/1971/12/13/archive/paul-zuckerman-named-general-chairman-of-uja-predicts-1972-will-be-record-year-for-organizations JTA, December 13, 1971: Paul Zuckerman of Detroit was last night named General Chairman of the United Jewish Appeal at the annual banquet session of the UJA’s annual national conference. ….. He said that the 1972 campaign, which he predicted would raise a record amount, will be built around the slogan “Keep the Promise” which would serve to remind responsible people everywhere that Jews in Israel and throughout the world are still in vital need of assistance with a wide variety of human needs. [seems to be origin of slogan, used by UJA for many years?]
