The Central Committee for the
Relief of Jews Suffering Through the
War, 13 Astor place, New York City,
will meet in conference at the Cen-
tral Jewish Institute, 126 East
Eighty-fifth street, New York City,
on Jan. 7.
This conference is of prime im-
portance to American Jewry inas-
much as it is intended not only to
render a complete report of the past
activities of the committee during the
years of its existence but also to
formulate plans for the future work
to be undertaken.
This committee, no active in the
past in the distribution of relief in
all stricken lands, contemplates the
undertaking of a comprehensive pro-
gra mot reconstructive work for the
future, in order to permanently re-
store the shattered life of Jewry in
all its phases, economic, industrial
and educational. One hundred and
fifty delegates are expected to attend
this conference.
A deputation headed by the Chief Rabbi of the Jewish community in
Argentine, accompanied by Dr. Lupo, Director of Immigration, has been
received at Government House by the new president of the republic, Dr.
Alvear. The deputation presented the president with an address and •
handsomely bound prayer book in Ilebrew and Spanish. Dr. Alvear expressed
himself honored at the compliment and declared that he would watch with
interest the progress of the Jewish community, which he was confident would
prove an important factor in the development of the country.
