JDC Baby Bottle Program,
Successful in Casablanca,
Now Begun in Marrakesh

The pilot infant-feeding project
on the Joint Distribution Commit-
tee in Casablanca, Morocco, now
in its third and final year, has
proven so successful that a similar
program was begun in Marrakesh.
JDC's tightening financial situa-
tion, resulting from the loss of
$7,000,000 annually, formerly re-
ceived from the Conference on
Jewish Material Claims Against
Germany, almost aborted the pro-
ject. However, the Central British
Fund, which has helped finance
the Casablanca project, has also
made funds available for the Mar-
rakesh project.
