came a supporter of the movement
to redeem Palestine. He also re-
ferred to conversations he had
with the late President Wilson
whom he encouraged in his ef-
forts to support the Balfour Dec-
laration and the Zionist cause.
Senator King sounded a strong
plea for unstinted support of
the Jewish Joint Distribution
Committee, the United Palestine
Appeal and the National Refugee
Service which are the constituent
bodies of the United Jewish Ap-
peal, the major fund included in
the Allied Jewish Campaign of
Detroit.

Abraham Srere, president of
the Jewish Welfare Federation,
presented the annual report of
the organization at Sunday's
meeting. "Tonight marks the 15th
anniversary of the Jewish Wel-
fare Organization," stated Mr.
Srere. "Some happy events and
many tragic ones have marched
across the stage of the world
since our founding. Perhaps the
part our Federation plays in
world events may be of a minor
nature. Nevertheless, it has
served as a centralized instru-
ment for scores of activities, ser-
vices and movements — philan-
thropic, cultural, educational and
creative, in our own community.
It has also been the point of
contact between the Jews of De-
troit and their brethren through-
out the entire world. Through
the Allied Jewish Campaign,
sponsored by your Federation
and carried out by our Detroit
Service Group, funds are pro-
vided in whole or in part for 55
organizations — local, national
and overseas."

Detroit Community Fund

In his report, Mr. Srere voiced
his endorsement of the Detroit
Community Fund and the idea
behind it, in theory and in prac-
tice. He urged every member of
the Federation to support the
Fund whole-heartedly, both
through service and with con-
tributions. He pointed out that
eight local Jewish agencies, in-
cluding the Federation itself, re-
ceive some or all of their sup-
port from the Community Fund.
"The Community Fund is one
of the great institutions of dem-
ocracy," said Mr. Srere, "one
that we must maintain as a vital
part of our society. We are happy
to be associated with it as con-
tributors, as workers, and as
members of many of its agencies
and boards."

Changes in Local Scene

Mr. Srere pointed out the pro-
gress that has been made in
community organization since the
Federation annual meeting of a
year ago. "In the field of child
care, thanks to the harmonious
relationship between the Jewish
Children's Home and the Jewish
Child Placement Bureau, the work
of these two agencies has been
merged into a single organiza-
tion, with one board, under the
name of the Jewish Children's
Bureau.
"Another step toward the de-
velopment of smooth inter-agency
relationship was taken during
the year by our vacation agen-
cies, with the formation of the
Jewish Camping Association, in
which are included representa-
tives of Fresh Air Society, Coun-
cil Camp, the Mothers' and
Babies' Camp at Chelsea, and
Camp Habonim, the Stay-at-
Home Camp conducted by the
Jewish Community Center dur-
ing the summer, for children who
must remain in the city. Such
matters as central programming,
staffing, purchasing and regis-
tration for camp are now the
concern of the new, central camp-
ing committee.

pendent group that come to the
attention of our Jewish social
agencies."
Stating that the first year of
service had been completed in
the new Aaron DeRoy memorial
building of the Jewish Com-
munity Center, Mr. Srere re-
ported that Jewish life in De-
troit is being enriched by the
addition of this new, modern
unit to the local community scene.
He also pointed out a more re-
cent development, the construc-
tion of the new Rose Sittig
Cohen building, on Lawton near
Davison, opened last fall. It
houses some of the growing ac-
tivities of the United Hebrew
Schools in that neighborhood and
the northwest neighborhood pro-
gram of the Jewish Community
Center.
Another example of improved
program, presented by Mr. Srere,
was the enlargement during the
year of the facilities of the em-
ployment department at the Jew-
ish Community Center. Expanded
into the Jewish Vocational Ser-
vice, with added staff, it has de-
veloped a widened program of
job placement and vocational
guidance and counselling.

"When board members of the

that increasingly the residents at

were in need of medical care be-
cause of the high prevalence of
chronic illness among such old
people, the board, in collabora-
tion with other of our agencies
concerned with this problem, es-
tablished a Jewish Old Age Bu-
reau. Through this bureau, the
needs of old people, whether they
