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. Training School For Worker.. 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 swesanissmiesusammins 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.
