"We will need the support of every member of the or- ganization. The entire community ought to be Interested in this work and we hope to awaken that interest this year, "While I have as yet not named my eommittees, I trust that those who are :selected to act on the various hoards will do their utmost to give as a great deal of time.

Report of President. Mr. Krolik In his report said. "The year 1920 has been marked by el- eater changes In our staff than in my single previous year for a long time past. Despite this fact and the further one that during the period of such changes the number of available workers was pitifully Inadequate, the work of the organization was done r emarkably well, as is evidenced part- by the fact that the complaints brought to your president were almost negligible In number and more espe- eially by the tremendous volume of work accomplished as Is shown by the statistical reports which you have before you. "As for two years before. our prin- iiipat source of Income has been the Detroit Community Fund, whose aSh eerie and especially whose executive secretary, Mr. William J. Norton. have always given the needs of the United Jewish Charities sympathetic and lib- twat consideration. It Is Impossible to properly appraise the value to our work, which freedom from worry as to where next month's funds were oming from has meant.
