Speakers' Bureau for their 1940
Allied Jewish Campaign, on
Thursday evening, March 21, at
the Jewish Community Center.
As principal speaker of the
evening, Isidore Sobeloff, execu-
tive director of the Jewish Wel-
fare Federation, stressed the im-
portance of making each audi-
ence realize the fact that this
campaign is different than those
which have gone before. Mr. So-
beloff described the tremendous
scope of this year's drive and
analyzed the $925,000 quota, rec-
ommended b ythe budget com-
mittee, for the Campaign goal.
Electrical records of the na-
tional broadcast, which featured
the official opening of the United
Jewish Appeal last week, were
Played. Thomas Mann, Bishop
Sheil, Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver
and Rabbi Jonah B. Wise ap-
pealed to the Jews of the entire
country for support on that oc-
casion.
Speakers' kits containing all
necessary materials and instruc-
tions were distributed to those
attending the meeting.
This year the Speakers' Bu-
reau has its headquarters at the
Jewish Welfare Federation office,
51 West Warren, Room 308. Or-
ganizations desiring members of
the Bureau to address individual
groups are requested to call Max

Greatest Famine in History Is
Threatened in Europe, Relief
Director Declares
General Discount Corporation
NEW YORK. (WNS) — The
European continent is rapidly be-
coming one of the greatest fam-
ine areas in modern history, ac-
cording to Morris C. Troper, Su-
ropean director of the American
Jewish Joint Distribution Com-
mittee, who arrived here last
week on the Rex.
Mr. Troper, who was recently
decorated by the French govern-
ment for his work among refu-
gees, came to America to report
on present conditions among ref-
ugees in Western Europe and
the problems of war relief in
Poland.
Pointing out that minority
groups are the first and greatest
sufferers, Mr. Troper said that
"large masses of the population
especially in the occupied war
areas in Eastern Europe are
threatened with extinction on a
scale heretofore unheard of and
in a way which makes of the
Black Hole of Calcutta a bless-
ing."
"Lack of food, clothing, shel-
ter, medical supplies are daily
creating unparalleled misery beg-
garing description, and unless
help is brought in a really size-
able scale and quickly these un-
fortunate people are doomed and
may in addition in the course of
their destruction scatter sickness
and epidemic to all quarters of
the continent without possibility
of control," he said.
"Lack of clothing and the re-
strictions against Jews purchas-
ing them will soon result in men
and women walking the streets
in indescribable shabbiness with-
out stockings and without shoes,
not to mention the countless
thousands who in time, and that
is not far off, will not be able to
