LEADERSHIP—LAY AND RABBINICAL

By ADOLPH FINSTERWALD,

President Congregation Beth El.

It is my belief that our most vital need at the present
time is for leadership, both lay and rabbinical.
Lay leaders must be developed in our congregations.
We find an ever increasing need for men who are vitally
interested in the life of our religion, because we have
grown to such proportions ill this country that it is essential
that we have laymen of such rare judgment and such high
character that they will be able to lead in all good enter-
prises. A religion is as strong as its men. In ancient
Israel it was "all the men from twenty years upward who
went forth to battle for Israel." So it is today. It is the
men whom we must gather to our standard in order that
their virile example may Will the others.
As for the rabbinical leaders, they, of course, must be
of the highest caliber. There is nothing so deadening to
a community as rabbi who is not a genuine leader, while
on the other hat d there is nothing so inspiring to a com-
munity as the p esence of a rabbi who has the qualities of
leade ship. Our rabbinical seminaries are doing
g enuine
a blessed wt k indeed when they send forth trained lead-
ers whose consecrated work will keep together the hosts
Israel. I is for us to heed the call of these institutions
of
when it co es, so that by our support we shall be able to
insure the teachers and preachers of Judaism to us and
to 0 r ch dren.
adership and rabbinical leadership would make a
L
wonderful combination for the sure progress of American
Judaism, and our people should leave no stone unturned
to obtain them.

recently esnie to America on a three-
months, ' Irate of absence to study
modern American hospital methods.
Dr. Salkind explained that the hos-
pitals of Iladassah in Palestine were
established six years ago along Amer-
ican lines and that as a result of his
present visit he expects to learn many
new methods of hospital administra-
tion which he will introduce into the
hospitals of the Jewish homeland up-
on his return.
"Compared with conditions before
and during the war, great progress
has been made in Palestine. Under
the Turkish regime conditions were
very bad and during the war they be-
en 111l. worse as typhus, typhoid lever
and other contagious diseases became
rampant. Not until 1915 when lid-
dasF.Hh, as the American Zionist Meri-
n:LI Unit, came to Palestine was any
systematic effort undertaken to im-
prove ths• health conditions of the
country and alleviate the suffering of
t he population. And this work has
continued until today with striking
beneficial results. When one speaks
of health work in Palestine one refers
anly to Iladassah, for Iladassah was
t h e only and now is the principal or-
ganization devoted to this important
phase of the country's development.
The colonization work of the Zionist
organization would have been impos-
sible if lIndassah's work had nut gone
along hand in hand with it."
Referring to lladassah's particular
accomplishments, Dr. Salkind explain-
ed that it established five hospitals
throughout the country with a capac-
ity of 310 beds, three beds to every
1,000 Jewish inhabitants. In the
United States there are but live beds
to every 1,000 persons. In 1923, pa-
tit nts spent 92,9:12 sick days in these
ho.pitals. Every hospital has its
spetialists in practically every branch
of medical science, and each hospital
also has a clinic for outpatients, 510,-
260 visits being made to the clinics
by outpatients alone during the past
year. In addition to its hospital work,
Iladassah carries on its activities
throughout the colonies, with a doc-
tor, nurse and pharmacist providing
expert medical and sanitary service
in MI different places throughout the
country. Every workers' settlement
of 15 persons or over receives
medical aid at these various Iladassah
centers. Maternity wards are not on-
ly part of each hospital's equipment,
but special maternity stations with
special doctors and nurses in charge
have been established in ninny places
throughout the country. Of the 2,500
annual births among the Jewish pop-
ulation 2,000 received special care
from liadassah.
"The control and gradual elimina-
tion of trachoma arming the school
children is one of Badassah's greatest
achievements," Dr. Salkind continued.
"About 20,000 school children are now
under the constant care of the organ-
ization. Eighty per cent of the Arab
children are afflicted with this dread
disease, while not more than 15 or 20
per cent of the Jewish children suffer
from it, showing the great progress
Iladassah has made in combating it.
"In the first three years of its ex-
istence, Iladassah was engaged in
stamping out malaria," l/r. Salkind
said. "Excellent results were achiev-
ed. For the past two years the work
has been in charge of the government
with a grant of money from the Joint
Distribution Committee. The Nurses'
'Fraining, School, the only school of its
kind in the Orient, is another of Ila-
dassah's splendid achievements in Pal-
estine. The 10 graduates of the school :
have done such outstanding work in
the various activities of Iladassah
that they have been invited to come
to Syria, Egypt and other surround-
ing countires to out in their sanitary'
and medical work. These nurses do
not stop at hospital and clinic work
for they go into the very homes and
introduce proper methods of hygiene
and sanitation.
"When one visits the country he can
realize what Iladassah has accom-
plished. Malaria cases grow smaller
and smaller in number. In some of
the colonies where it was very bad, as
Chedorah and Nahulal, it has been
practically stamped out Trachoma is
under control and is being eliminated. :
Removal of the sick to well-equipped
hospitals has saved many lives. The
death rate in the hospitals is compar-
atively quite low. In Palestine it is
3.9 per cent; in the United States it
is 5 per cent.
"liadassah can rightfully say that
due to its good work the life of the
country has been so safeguarded. As
to the future, with the medical work
growing bigger and bigger with in-
creases in the population, hospitals
must be enlarged and the number of
beds increased. Iladassah has been
unable to widen its work to meet the
gnawing needs of the country because
its budget has been used up in main-
taining its present institutions. Ad-
ditional means must be forthcoming
and of prime importance is the rais-
ing of a building fund to erect new
buildings to house the medical depart-
ments. In Tel Aviv, for example, Ha-
dassah has been forced to rent houses
for its work. Large sums are thus
spent for rents and the houses are not
what is needed or desired. In Jeru-
salem the hospital has III beds when
at least 150 are needed. But the
present building will house no addi-
tional beds. It is necessary to pur-
chase additional land and erect new
buildings."

89 out of 100
men leave no estate

It is the business of this institution to help men and women become
successful—to not only make money but to accumulate an estate.

While every man makes money only 11 out of 100 leave an estate.
The other 89 have nothing to live on in their later years and
leave nothing for their family's support after their death.

There is but one logical way to avoid becoming one of the 89.
It is to save small sums systematically until sufficient funds are
accumulated from time to time to make investment possible.

You will find our "Buy $1,000" Easy Payment Plan ideal for this
purpose, with weekly payments as low as $2.26.
