ground. Because it is disorganized,
because it is growing so rapidly,
L. A. has often been referred to
as a Jewish "jungle." It is difficult
to reach out to some people. Many
who have left communities where
they have been active in the past
now refuse to share in communal
life. Philanthropically, some say
they owe allegiance in gift-giving
to the cities they come from.
But these resistances are being
met now with better skill than in
the past, and it would be an injus-
tice to say that L. A. does not have
a Jewish future.
On the contrary, the community's
outlook in the years to come is
bright. The fact that the three
branches in Judaism—Reform, Or-
thodox, Conservative — now have
important and well-functioning
branches here representing their
theological schools is an indication
of a positive approach. These semi-
naries are creating great interest
in the community and their pro-
grams of activities, in student train-
ing and in community functioning,
are creative and draw good re-
sponses.
In fund-raising, there is hope
for a better response in the

Manufacturers Bank
is looking for people to lend money to
Responsible people with worthwhile needs. Like Gary and Barbara Adam-
son, whose family in recent years, has grown faster than family income.
So, when they found they had to enlarge and modernize their kitchen and
convert unfinished upstairs space into extra bedrooms, they simply
couldn't pay cash. But they could get the job done now, and with the
help of a Manufacturers Bank FHA Home Improvement Loan, have the
time to pay for it.
Manufacturers makes FHA Home Improvement Loans up to $3500,
with up to five years to repay. And the Adamsons were able to arrange
Manufacturers Bank FHA financing through their own contractor.
Manufacturers Bank is looking for people like Gary and Barbara Adam-
son to lend money to. Responsible people whose needs are not really
more than they can handle. Just more than they may be able to handle
all at once.
