pioneer planning by this com-
munity, Stutz said.

Planning Group Attains
`Top Community Thinking'

Reviewing the first year's ac-
tivities of the social planning
committee of the Jewish Welfare
Federation, members of the com-
mittee heard' reports from three
important sub-committees at the
first annual meeting Wednesday,
Dec. 10, at the Jewish Home for
Aged. Aaron Droock was chair-
man of the evening.
Julian H..Krolik, president of
the Federation and chairman of
the committee, outlined the rea-
sons for the establishment of the
committee, pointing out that a
"clearing house" had been needed
to correlate the programs of local
social service agencies, to relate
existing services to common prob-
lems and to avoid duplication.

Present Report

Reports were presented by
Judge Theodore Levin on re-
settlement work; George M. Stutz,
chairman of the sub-committee
on aged and 'chronic sick, and
Myron A. Keys, president of the

Home at Capacity

Jewish Home for Aged, on insti-
tutional care for the aged, and
Harvey H. Goldman, chairman of
the sub-tommittee on extension
services of the Jewish Com-
munity Center.
Underlining the expanded serv-
ices for refugees provided by De-
troit, Judge Levin announced that
in a single year the budget for
this work has been increased
from $48,000 to what will appar-
ently be $121,000 by the end of
1948.
Mr. Stutz announced that his
sub-committee's studies on rec-
reation had resulted in the au-
thorization by the Federation
board of governors of the appoint-
ment of a special recreational
worker who will promote organ-
ized groups for old people at the
Center, in addition to the ones
already existing there. A project-
ed development by the Detroit
community—an apartment house
for the aged—Lis an example of

Mr. Keys pointed out that the
Jewish Home for Aged is at pres-
ent running to capacity and an-
nounced that the completion of
the corridor connecting the main
building and the annex will occur
the end of December to permit
the conversion of the annex into
an infirmary for the chronically
ill — a program made imperative
by the lack of a hospital for the
chronically ill in Detroit.
Findings of the sub-committee
on Center extensions indicate
that the community. is lacking
facilities necessary' to give proper
service in the field of informal
education and recreation. As high
as 63% of Jewish youth are en-
tirely • unaffiliated, Goldman add-
ed, in large part because of the
absence of a Center in their im-
mediate neighborhood.
Sum Up Results
Summing up the results of the
committee's activities, Isidore So-
beloff, executive director of the
Federation, declared that while
the committee evaluates - corn-
munity needs, its strong feeling

"What Good Is a Law?" will be
the subject of a discussion by
Oscar Cohen, executive director
of the Jewish Community Coun-
cil, at the Junior Service Group
discussion meeting at 2:30 p. m.
Sunday, Jan. 18, at the Jewish
Center. He will examine methods
of dealing with anti-Semitism on
a legal basis, as well as the ex-
isting agencies in the field of
civic protection.
The series, under the chairman-
ship of S. Joseph Fauman, is open

in the community which deter-
mines priorities for these meet-
ings. The committee has become
in effect, he said, the instrument
for "top community thinking."
Abe L. Sudran, retiring associ-
ate director of Federation, listed
local developments and problems
which will come before the com-
mittee in the months • ahead.
Among these are the Jewish Hos-
pital, scholarship service, camp-
ing needs, and consolidation of
Yiddish schools.
