Jewish Welfare Board to Update
Services to Meet Postwar Needs

(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)

MIAMI BEACH — The Na-
tional Jewish Welfare Board
opened its biennial convention
Wednesday with the goal of
implementing a series of recom-
mendations to reorganize and
update its services and struc-
ture to deal with the impact
on American Jewish life of the
sweeping postwar sociological
changes in the United States.
The recommendations are the
outgrowth of a report based on
a year-long study by 51 JWB
leaders from all parts of the
country. It was presented at a
plenary session Wednesday by
Louis Stern of South Orange,
N.J., committee chairman, and
a vice president of the JWB
and the Council of Jewish Fed-
erations and Welfare Funds.
The study -and recommenda-
tions developed from recogni-
tion that conditions affecting
JWB's two major areas—serv-
ice to Jewish Community Cen-
ters and camps and religious
and morale service to Jewish
personnel — have undergone
radical changes since 1948
when the organization made its
last self examination—the Ja-
nowsky Report.
