Vocational Service Looks to Future

Conferring at the Long-Range Planning Conference of the Jewish
Occupational Council in New York are (from left), Albert Cohen,
executive director of Detroit's Jewish Vocational Service and Com-
munity Workshop; Samuel S. Greenberg, past president of the Jewish
Vocational Service and Community Workshop and honorary chairman
of the Jewish Occupational Council; and Kaye G. Frank, newly
elected president of Jewish Vocational Service and Conimunity Work-
shop. Cohen reported that United Community Services of Detroit was
increasingly taking cognizance of the many contributions which JVS
was making to the well-being of the total community in the field of
rehabilitation and manpower development. He reported on the efforts
of his agency to get close to and reach out to Jewish youth in order
to determine their educational and vocational needs. Frank pointed
out that this past summer Detroit JVS had placed more Jewish
youngsters than ever, as a result of an intensive campaign. He also
stressed that Jewish agencies face a great challenge to provide a
channel for the expression of idealistic impulses of Jewish youth into
concrete projects under specifically Jewish auspices. Eugene Green-
span, assistant executive director of JVS, also took part.

Tourists File Complaints
of Jailed Egyptian Jews

TEL AVIV (JTA) — First-hand
reports of continued detention and
maltreatment of large numbers of
Egyptian Jews have been brought
here by tourists who visited Egypt
a short time ago. They said that
Jews are imprisoned mainly in the
Helouan concentration camp near
Cairo and have been under arrest,
without trial, since the June 1967
Arab-Israel war.
The tourists, some of whom
spoke to relatives of the prisoners,
reported many complaints of mis-
treatment by prison wardens. They
said the prisoners were allowed
to receive visitors only once a
month and then only for a half
hour.
