public life. He comes to JDC top leadership from another top leader
ship position. He was general chairman of the national United Jewish
Appeal until the expiration of his term this week. Under his chair-
manship, the UJA raised more funds than ever in the history of Jewish
fund-raising in the United States.
A prominent Cleveland lawyer, Ginsberg has also been a tower
of strength in the Cleveland Jewish Federation.
He is succeeding Louis Broido, who led the JDC successfully and
with great dignity during the last few years as its chairman, and who
has been active in the JDC for decades. Mr. Broido will remain in
the ranks of JDC leadership and will continue to contribute a good
deal of his time to JDC interests.

It is no easy task to stand guard on the needs of Jews the world
over. But Haber fulfills this task with great ability. He has the back-
ground for it. He came to his important executive position after years
of being in charge of JDC operations in liberated Gertnany, in post-
war Poland and in North Africa. He also set up the JDC program in
India, and was for a time in charge of the "Relief-in-Transit" program

JDC ACHIEVEMENTS: The 57th annual meeting of the JDC
took place in an atmosphere of world turmoil. But the JDC is known
for its ability to meet emergencies ever since World War I. It had its
"good years" and its "bad years." The good years were when Jew,
throughout the world were not so much in need of aid from American
Jewry. The bad years were when Jews in various countries have
found themselves in catastrophic situations and were greatly dependent
on JDC relief.
During the years of World War I. the JDC raised an average of
$4,000,000 a year. Its income jumped to $13,000,000 when the war
was over and Polish Jewry found itself in unprecedented need of
relief. It dropped to as low as $579,000 in 1924, and even much lower
in 1925, when the situation of the Jews overseas became more relaxed.
But when World War II broke out in 1939, the contributions to
JDC again rose to millions of dollars. And in the years immediately
after World War II—when it was necessary to rebuild the Jewish life
devastated by the Nazis in European countries and to help the Jews
liberated from Nazi camps find their way to Palestine—the JDC income
rose to about $80,000,000 in 1948 and reached $72,000,000 in 1948.
Today, the JDC receives as its share from the UJA an average of
$24,000 a year.
The JDC has a national council composed of about 10,000 Jewish
communal leaders from all over the country. Jack D. Weiler, the
