for a worker to visit them so that
they may share in the program
of helpfulness that the Allied
Jewish Campaign represents.
"Even among those names of
women who did not contribute
last year," said Mrs. Srere,
"there also are large numbers
eager to affiliate themselves with
the great humanitarian move-
ments in whose behalf the cam-
paign appeals. It would be un-
fair to the campaign, unfair to
the agencies we serve, and unfair
to those who need our help if
any prospect, by the time the
drive closes, has not been given
the opportunity to subscribe.
What is just as serious, it would
be unfair to the prospect her-
self."

Crane commended the workers in
the Allied Jewish Campaign
upon their great undertaking.
Bob Hall, internationally known
entertainer, followed Dr. Crane
and not only amused the audi-
ence, but urged them to greater
campaign efforts, his entire ad-
dress being presented in rhyme.
Preceding the general meeting,
executive committee workers were

Dr. Franklin's Message

Dr. Leo M. Franklin, as the
speaker of the day, took the
Passover theme around which to
build his address. "Millions of
Jews are living in a modern
Egypt," he stated, adding that
this enslavement was modern in
time but ancient in its barbarity.
"With our help," he continued,
"we can do more than meet
minimum physical requirements.
We can buoy up courage and
spirit and thus prevent the moral
servitude that comes when the
spirit succumbs."
Dr. Franklin reminded his audi-
ence that the campaign encom-
passes a world of work, includ-
ing scores of services in addi-
tion to those overseas, many of
them vital, local activities on
which the normal functioning of
an American community depends.

lectured before colleges and other

United States. The author has
drawn upon Jewish sources and

acquaints the reader with the
current material being assembled
in the social science laboratories.

A J e w is h interpretation of

ASKING COP*

Aim to Reach All Prospects

Mrs. Hyman C. Broder, execu-
tive vice-chairman of the Wom-
en's Division, voiced the hope
that the women workers might
round out their project before
Passover, but added that even if
the goal is reached by that time
there would be no cessation of
effort until a report was in hand
for every prospective giver.
"Women appreciate that the
campaign is a serious matter,
perhaps more serious than any
other effort ever before under-
taken by us," declared Mrs.
Broder to the 250 workers as-
sembled. "Millions of dollars are
needed, urgently, to buy food.
Millions more for medicine, shel-
ter and transportation. The per-
son who gives $100 toward the
United Jewish Appeal, which in-
cludes the work of the Joint
Distribution Committee in Eu-
rope, sustains a family of five, at
least with food, for almost a
year. That family, in addition to
getting one meager meal each
day, also gets the courage to live
because it knows the world hasn't
forgotten it."

Report by Mrs. Wineman

Citing figures to show substan-
tial percentages of increase, Mrs.
Henry Wineman, chairman of the
Special Gifts Committee, ex-
pressed the opinion that the so-
licitation of women had won a
permanent place in the campaign
scheme. "Last year our effort was
entirely new, and the level of
giving, while generous, was not
enough. This year the philosophy
underlying the women's campaign
has met with wider understand-
ing and the larger gifts, in every
bracket, give evidence of a high-
er, greater appreciation of the
need and a correspondingly high-
er standard of giving."
During the past week the three
divisions, led by Mrs. Simon
Shetzer, Mrs. Maurice Klein and
Mrs. Harry Wetsman, vied for
top honors in percentage of quota
realized with Mrs. Perry P. Burn-
stine's division also in the run-
ning for honors.
