By HAL LEHRMAN
VIENNA, AUSTRIA — United
States armed forces here are turn-
ing a six-acre provincial estate in
the American Zone into a nutri-
tion and rest camp for Jewish
children orphaned by Nazism who
are now streaming into Austria
from Hungary and Poland en
route to Palestine.
Four modern, airy houses, sur.
rounded by trees and grass and
flowers and situated near a lake,
have been set aside' by the Army
for the rest camp. It will be ad-
ministered by the Joint Distribu-
tion Committee major American
agency aiding Jewish survivors
overseas, which will supplement
UNRRA rations of 1,400 calories
per day with food provisions that
will bring the children's daily fare
to nearly 3,000 calories far ex=
ceeding the best civilian ration
for adults in Austria today.
Three separate groups of Jew-
ish orphans— 240 in all —arrived
in Vienna last week. AcCompanied

tria by young men and women
representing various Zionist
groups in Europe, the youngsters

American Commission. The new
organization, called the Jewish
Welfare Federation, is already
functioning and is conducting the
first community campaign under
its auspices. 'Major departments
include campaigning and budget-
ing, case work and allied services,
group work and civic-protection.
Evidence that even the oldest
and largest federations are flex-
ible and are adapting to new re-
quirements is given by Boston
whose Associated Jewish Philan-
thropies marked its 50th anni-
versary last year. The AJP has
just announced the merger of the
Jewish Family Welfare Associa-
tion and the Jewish Welfare Asso-
ciation into the Jewish Family
and Children's Service. Another
step in Boston's program has been
the opening of a Jewish Center to
serve the Brighton, Brookline, and
Newton residents.
In Hartford, the Council of
Jewish Women, the Refugee Serv-
ice, and the United Jewish Social
Service Agency have acted to cen-
tralize all refugee service in the
community. This is the first ma-
jor step in the coordination of
local programs developed by the
planning committee of the recent-
ly-organized Jewish Federation.
Another major step in Hartford
has been the organization of a
permanent committee on Com-
munity Planning for Jewish Edu-
cation.
Milwaukee has organized a Cen.
tral Planning Committee for so-
cial services.

NEW YORK (JTA)—Reports
from various sections of the coun-
try indicate that communities are
strengthening their basic struc-
ture and improving the quality of
their service on every level, ac-
cording to a survey made public
by the Council of Jewish Federa-
tions and Welfare Funds.
Kansas City, Mo. has completed
the merger of its Jewish Welfare
Federation and its Jewish Com-
munity Council. The new com-
bined organization embraces the
scope of previous agencies in
fund-raising, budgeting, social
service planning, community rela-
tions and civic.protective work,
and action on broad non-philan-
thropic matters. The membership
includes delegates of organiza-
tions, and individuals to represent
the community at large.
In Worcester, Mass., the Jewish
Community Council and Jewish
Welfare Fund officially have voted
to merge into a new organization.
The next step is to draw up the
detailed governing constitution
and by-laws, and this will be done
following the current campaign.
The new agency will combine the
general community relations and
non - philanthropic responsibilities
of the Council and the fund-rais-
ing and budgeting activity of the
Welfare Fund. It is expected that
Worcester will have a single con.
tral planning and operating organ.
