They are: N.Y.A., unemployment com- pensation, old age pensions, total stoppage of subsidies to relatives in Europe, decrease in immigra- tion possibilities, group hospital- ization, increase in employment and better wages, gradual elimi- nation of the small business man; and restrictions on truck, car, and tire buying. There was a time when in Jan- uary and September, before new school semesters began, there was a demand for loans for tui- tion, books, and instruments for the dental and medical students. In April and September, before Pesach and Rosh Hashona, there was a call for money to meet the special holiday need, and to send to Europe. The immigration picture has completely changed, and will remain so until after the war. One of the finest aids to fami- lies is that of low-price hospital- ization. It averts a financial crisis, contributes to peace of mind, and incidentally elimin- ates one of the purposes for which persons often were forced to ask for loans. Unemployment compensation and old age pensions have had far reaching effects. The war, especially in an industrial center like Detroit, has created excep- tional opportunities for earning. Throughout the years, the Hebrew Free Loan Association assisted the small business man to get started, and later, to keep going. Scarcity of peace-time goods is a deterrant now, and that class of business is gradu- ally being forced out. In 1941, 144 loans were made for trucks, cars for business, tires, etc. The number of loans for such pur- pose now is very small. In spite of these conditions, we have granted to date, in 1942, 963 loans in the amount of $109,390. Whatever the future, it seems certain that the . Hebrew Free Loan Association will always have a niche to fill in the social structure of the Jewish commun- ity.
