CJFWF Urges Closer Ties
On National Local Needs

CINCINNATI — (J T A) — A
closer relationship between the
national Jewish agencies and
the local communities in which
funds for local, overseas and
Israel needs are raised was rec-
ommended to the 18th annual
assembly of the Council of Jew-
ish Federations a n d Welfare
Funds. The assembly was at-
tended by over 500 delegates
from some 265 communities
throughout this country and in
Canada.
The delegates heard reports on
stable and unified fund-raising,
national - local - relations and
multiple appeals ,by Julian Free-
man of Indianapolis, Herbert R.
Abeles of Newark and Bernard
P. Kopkind of New Haven.
Among the recommendations of-
fered delegates by Council com-
mittees dealing with these mat-
ters were the following:

.

1. The establishment in Israel of a
central philanthilOpic fund and a central
philanthropic- budget.
2. Extension of the principle contained
in the recent organization of a joint
liaison committee of the Council and the
United Jewish Appeal to consider mutual
problems and to aid in resolving ques-
tions of community relationships.
3. Because there is no new immediate
threat of disorganization • on the national
scene, there is no "decisive current com-
munity sentiment" for a national Jewish
welfare fund.
4. The UJA and beneficiaries of wel-
fare funds should have full and fair hear-
ings from communities in questions con-
cerning allocations of money raised by
the local welfare funds. Thereafter each
city should retain the right to decide its
own goals, budget, and distribution of
funds.
5. Local community organizations should
make questions of national-local relation-
ships a regular part of their board meet-
ing agendas and should set up commit-
tees for continuous attention to these
problems.

A comprehensive picture of
the role of the organized Jewish
communities in meeting Ameri-
can Jewry's total responsibili-
ties was presented to the dele-
gates by Stanley C. Meyers of
Miami, Council president, and
Harold Glasser, director of the
Council's Institute on Overseas
Studies.

ing to an announcement by

ited mountain in Israel, in the
heart of the Galilee country. Ne-

should not be any real con-
flict between overseas and ma-
jor local needs in Jewish phil-
anthropy, Frank Weil called for
an end of the conflict about
priorities in his address at a
testimonial dinner for Dr. Kurt
Peiser, concluding the third an-
nual meeting of the training
bureau for Jewish Communal
Service.
Praising the training bureau
for its "important" work in
training skilled prqtessional
leaders for Jewish communal
life, Well lamented the closing
of similar schools in the past,
such as the graduate school for
Jewish social work and others.
He urged support and extension
of the program of the Training
Bureau as the only Jewish
school of its kind in the United
States.
. Samuel A. Goldsmith, Execu-
tive Director of the Jewish Fed-
eration of Chicago, who was
chairman of the dinner, was
elected chairman of the ,,rain-
ing bureau's board of trustees
to succeed Dr. Peiser. Isidore
Sobeloff of Detroit was elected
