NEW YORK, (JTA)—An ap-
peal to Jewish civilians to stay
away from resorts selected by the
Army as Redistribution Centers
for servicemen returning from
overseas, was made public here
by the Committee for Army and
Navy Religious Activities of the
Jewish National Welfare Board.
The appeal asks civilians not to
spend their winter vacations in
Miami, Florida-; Lake Pla:id, N.
Y.; Atlantic City, N. J.; Hot
Springs, Ark.; Asheville, N. C.;
and Santa Monica, Calif.
It
points out that these resort com-
munities have been selected by
the Army as Redistribution Cen-
ters because of their cliMate and
hotel facilities, and that to these
centers are now coming in vastly
increasing numbers the wounded,
the sick, the fatigued, the over-
strained from overseas battle
conditions.
The appeal was issued as re-
sult of information reaching cen-
tral Jewish organizations in New
York that because of the fact that
civilian vacationists are crowding
resort communities, servicemen
are unable to get rooms for their
families who wish to be with
them.
