among the communities and camps,
to organize the work and to super-
vise it when established.
The Field Secretaries are: Dr. L.
13. Bernstein, Dr. Leon W. Goldrich,
Rabbi D. DeSola Pool, and Rabbi
Horace J. Wolf.
These Field Secretaries consult
with the various field workers em-
ployed directly by the Board at the
various cantonments and elsewhere,
offering them advice, instructions,
and the encouragement of personal
contact. The field secretaries meet
at stated intervals, of about six weeks,
to exchange experiences and views in
order to make for the larger effi-
ciency and greater helpfulness of the
movement as a whole.
The Executive Conunittee operates
through five main committees, having
under their direction publicity and
propaganda, religious activities, gen-
eral activities, finance and buildings.
There is a special committee on
Chaplains and another special com-
mittee on Budgets of Community
Branches.

depends. They must have tact, comer
age, a genuine love of their fellow-
man, untiring zeal and energy and
whole-souled devotion to the cause.
But in addition to all these qualities,
the field workers need intelligence,
and they must be trained.
The important function of special
training for Soldier and Sailor wel-
fare Work is accomplished by means
of a school in New York City for the
training of Field \Yorkers. This
school is in charge of a faculty, whose
members have made welfare work in
its various phases their study and vo-
cation. Already several classes of
students have graduated and under-
taken their active duties at the vari-
ous cantonments. It is estimated that
at least one field worker will be re-
quired for every 500 men in the Na-
tional Army, so that no fewer than
200 workers will he required before
the needs of the 60,000 Jewish men
already in the Army, and those to be
included in the second draft, are ade-
quately met. It is the purpose of the
school to graduate a class of twenty
workers each month, throughout the
present year.
Of the utmost impr in the
plans of the Jewish Wc,tare
the method of selecting and traini..g
the men to be used as field workers,
as it is upon these that the success of
the work of the Board very largely
What the Coarse Embodies.
The course at the school is entirely
oractical. There is no time for fads
or fancies, the sole object being to
train, in the shortest possible time,
the largest number of men able to

fulfil the stern obligations and duties
resting upon Jewish Welfare Board
\Yorkers.
For this reason, the curriculum has
been laid out to cover in all, 60 hours,
50 for the original work, and 10 for
review, in the three or four weeks al-
lotted to it. The course begins with
the President's message to Congress,
outlining the reasons for America's
participation in the war, and the ideals
for which America is fighting. The
fact that the Jewish religion has nev-
er taught non-resistance to the forces
of evil, and that the Old Testament
teachings are strongly in favor of
fighting for a righteous cause, is im-
pressed on the Field Workers and
through them upon the men in the
ranks. Furthermore, the course famil-
iarizes the workers with the organiza-
