Outlining
its

so that "the observant Jew will
be able to have Passover foods
by contacting his Jewish chap-
lain, JWB worker or the national
office in New York." As far as
feasible those demands will be met,
Mr. Weil assured all servicemen.
All JWB workers have been di-
rected to inform the national of-

The War and Navy Departments
are following their historic policy
of cooperation by making it pos-
sible for Jewish members of the
armed forces who wish to observe
the Passover. Due to the exi-
gencies of war, many seders will
be conducted right in army camps
or in nearby communities. In the
latter instances, and wherever pos-

Jewish population is too small to
cover all of the Jews stationed at
the camps, there will be community
seders. The Jewish community
will conduct the seders for all of
the soldiers and the Jewish Wel-
fare Board will cooperate by fur-
nishing Passover supplies to in-
sure as complete an observance as
possible.
Disabled Jewish veterans who
are stationed in Veterans Hospi-

plans of bringing Passover into

It is the single voice of American
Jewry in relations with the armed
forces. As such, it looks to the
American Jewish Community to
"aid its continuing program of
service to our boys," Mr. Weil de-
clared. "As our army grows so do
the number of Jews in that army
increase," he continued. "and the
work of the JWB will increase
in direct proportion. Our Pass-
