List of Jewish Workers in
Men's and Women's
Divisions
Jewish men and women have
rallied to the call of the Detroit
Community Fund, pledging their
services in the special gifts divi-
sion of the 18th Community Fund
Campaign which will be held this
year from Oct. 28 to Nov. 8.
Kurt Peiser, executive director
of the Jewish Welfare Federation,
urges liberal contributions on the
part of the Jewish community to
the Detroit Community Fund.
"Not only because six im•
portant Jewish agencies are in-
cluded in the Community Fund
Campaign, but as an expres-
sion of community loyalty,
Jews must do their share in the
coming drive," states Mr. Pei-
ser. "We must be givers as well
as receivers. Our six most im-
portant relief, healing, child
care and recreation activities,
namely, the North End Chain,
the Hebrew Free Loan Associ•
ation, the Jewish Child Place-
ment Bureau, the Jewish Chil-
dren's Home, the Jewish Corn•
munity Center and the Jewish
Social Service Bureau, receive
financial grants from the Corn•
munity Fund. Therefore, it is
necessary that we, the Jewish
community, reciprocate • n d
give generously in the coming
campaign."
The two main objectives of Com-
munity Fund leaders this year are:
to reach the goal of $2,000,000, an
increase over last year's collec-
tions, and lift the level of Detroit's
per capita giving to that attained
by other large cities.
Detroit, which prides itself on a
dynamic community spirit and
leadership in many fields of en-
deavor, loses some of its reputa-
tion when contributions to charity
are compared with those of rival
cities. Detroit's per capita gift to
the CommuniV Fund last.ycurjet
only 31.
Cincinnati, with less than one
third Detroit's population, contrib-
uted $121,000 more than the en-
tire amount collected in Detroit, for
a per capita rating of $3.45.
Cleveland, Los Angeles, St. Louis
and Pittsburgh, all smaller than
Detroit, also contributed more
money, both in total and per capita.
Minneapolis, with only 469,000 cit-
izens, contributed within $35,000 of
the amount raised in Detroit.
The fault here does not seem to
lie with the group of givers who
contribute less than $10 apiece nor
with the very rich. The number of
those who give $25,000 or more
compares favorably with similar
classes in the other cities as does
the small gift group. It is in the
middle class, embracing the high-
salaried persons and the moderate-
ly wealthy, that Detroit lags far
behind.
Cleveland, a third smaller than
Detroit, had twice as many citizens
who gave from $5,000 to $9,999.
Philadelphia, only a fifth larger
than Detroit, had three times as
many givers in this class. Similar
comparisons hold good for the
$1,000 to $4,999 group.
In the group giving $100 to $999
Detroit stands the very bottom of
a list of 10 cities, only one of which
is as large as Detroit. The same

The Zionist Organization of De-
troit will hold its first open meet-
ing of the 1935 season on Wednes-
day evening, Oct. 16, at 8:30
o'clock, at the Statler Hotel.
A program of unusual merit has
been planned which will give De-
troit Zionists and friends of Pales-
ish leaders in philanthropic and
communal affairs from Indiana,
Michigan, Kentucky, Ohio, West
Virginia and Western Pennsyl-
vania will attend these sessions.
Personages, nationally known in
social work, will address the meet-
ings and an interchange of ideas
will be forwarded in round-table
discussions. Special emphasis will
be laid on the problem of enlist-
ing Jewish youth in the service
of communal activities which now
holds the attention chiefly of
adults.
Henry Wineman, general chair-
man of the East Central States
Regional Conference, and the lo-

chairman, invite all those inter-
ested in Jewish communal de-
