The Jewish agencies in-
cluded in the Torch Fund drive
— which will be conducted
through Nov. 9—are Fresh Air

with a healthful active vacation
in a Jewish atmosphere.
Gives Financial Aid
The non-sectarian Hebrew
Free Loan Association grants in-
terest-free loans temporarily to
those in need of funds, and
maintains a flexible policy to
meet timely situations, such as
assisting in the readjustment of
returning servicemen after the
war and providing loans to new
Americans settling in Detroit.
Free medical, diagnostic and
dental treatment is given at
North End Clinic to patients un-
able to pay for private care. The
Clinic also performs all labora-
tory tests required for residents
at the Jewish Home for Aged.
Any qualified physician — re-
gardless of race or creed—is wel-
come to become a member of
the Clinic staff.
Activities that make up a
well-rounded recreation p r o -
gram for children, youth and
adults are on the program . of
