It

Better understanding of, and a
more sympathetic response to, all
legitimate Jewish causes will be
the outstanding result of the es-
tablishment of an advisory serv-
ice on budgeting for national
and overseas agencies, Sidney
Hollander of Baltimore, president
of the Council of Jewish Federa-
tions and Welfare Funds, has
declared.
In a statement published in the
Cincinnati American Israelite re-
garding the referendum being con-
ducted by the Council among its
203 member agencies in 167 cities
on the proposal to set up a na-
tional advisory budgeting service,
Mr. Hollander appealed to national
agencies to permit local commu-
nities to decide the matter "solely
on the usefulness of the proposed
services to their individual needs
and not as a result of hysterical
clamor or threats of disruption."

"No agency appealing to wel-
fare funds," he said, has any-
thing to fear from an honest,
sympathetic examination of its
programs and needs."
Some national agencies, Mr. Hol-
lander asserted, feel "that they
may obtain more favorable con-
sideration from certain local bud-
geting committees as a result of
the pressures that may be brought
than through an examination and
publication of their needs by a
group of fair-minded representa-
tives of welfare fund cities."
American Jewish communities,
he said, "will not be confused by
obvious misinterpretations" of the
proposal as an effort to "exer-
cise a controlling authority over
the principles and ideals, the aims
and aspirations, of the agencies
serving Jewish needs."
