Setting the pace for all divisions in the Allied Jewish Campaign, the Professional Division, headed by Dr. Charles Lakoff, has raised 75 percent of its 1949 total pledges in five weeks of active solicitation. This campaign success is gratifying to division director _Harold Kempner, who came to the AJC post directly from . five years as a social worker in the displaced persons camps in Germany.
