Rebekah Kohut, Noted Woman
Leader, Dies at Age of 86

NEW YORK, (JTA)-Rebekah
Kohut, noted American Jewish
communal, educational and cul-
tural leader and an authority on
w o m e n's and unemployment
problems, died here Aug. 11 after
a long illness. She was 86.
Born in Hungary in 1864, Mrs.
Kohut came to this country with
her parents when she was three

her long career in Jewish life
she lectured on Jewish subjects,
taught at New York City's Edu-
cational Alliance and founded
the Kohut School for Girls.
After she became established in
Jewish educational work, Mrs.
Kohut turned her attention to
welfare problems and in 1897 be-
came the first president of the
New York section of the Coun-
cil of Jewish Women. Later, she
reorganized and h ea de d the
Young Women's H e b r e w As-

-

sociation Employment Bureau
and, during World War I, served
in the F e d e r al Employment
Clearing House as a "dollar-a-
year man." For many years af-
terwards, although she con-
tinued her educational actiw ties,
she also served on various New
York State commissions deal-
ing with employment problems.
In 1942, Mrs. Kohut became
president of the World Congress
of Jewish Women. She was also
a vice-president of the Jewish
Conciliation Court of America,
vice-president of the Vocational
Service for Juniors, member of
the executive board of the Bu-
reau of Jewish Social Research,
trustee of the American Wom-
en's Association and of the Jew-
ish Institute of Religion. She
was an honorary president of
the New York section of the Na-
tional Council of Jewish Women.
