COMMUNAL AFFAIRS: Ingredients for a program en- visaging major advances in the quality and effectiveness of services rendered to the Jewish community are contained in recommendations adopted by the National Conference of Jewish Communal Service, the central body of Jewish communal workers. Its full implementation would take perhaps three years, but immediate action is proposed. Experimental pilot proj- ects will be established in the interim. Intensive interpreta- tion work will be started, beginning with national agencies and the executives of Jewish federations. The predominant emphasis of the implementation pro- cess, at this initial stage, is laid upon the Jewish social workers. A questionnaire has been mailed by the NCJCS to about 2,400 of them soliciting their opinions on the structure and operation of Jewish communal organizations. Not all of them answered, but among those who did answer, there was dissatisfaction of a cross-sectional majority with the present structure. functioning and priorities of the organized Jewish community. The dissatisfaction was primarily due to the belief that the present priorities of the organized Jewish communities, as well as the mode of their operation and leadership struc- ture are not effectively promoting Jewish survival and adequately providing for Jewish education and for social services. C * LAY-PROFESSIONAL DIFFERENCES: The difference between the present priorities and those preferred by a majority of the respondent social workers is considered essentially a conflict between lay and professional priorities. It raises by itself questions concerning the role of communal workers vis-a-vis lay leaders in the priority-setting process. In a memorandum to its members, the National confer- ence of Jewish Communal Service urges the planning of lay - professional colloquia around issues of concern to the American Jewish community and the relationships be- tween lay and professional personnel. It also suggests con- ferring with rabbinical bodies to establish liaison with them in their role as .communal workers. It recommends to its members to involve more grass roots participation in defin- ing communal problems and goals. stairs at emile's ada Continues to produce the greatest Values in MEN'S . . .

However, con- siderable differences were expressed in the survey as to how these four priorities should be ranked. Most respondents questioned the present top priority for fund-raising for Israel. They preferred first place for Jewish education and social services. The most frequent suggestion on improving this process was to broaden participation beyond the "big givers." A sub- stantial number of respondents suggested that the process would be improved if communal workers were more involved in 'it. They also suggested more involvement of communal workers in the leadership structure of the communities. Other frequent suggestions were: 1. the broadening of participation in Jewish communal affairs in general to include intellectuals; 2. more Jewish education; and 3. more unification 'in the Jewish community to cope with fragmentation. 4e4 dea9Heee RINCETON is agereeftedu,a j t au it mead Take advantage of this RARE OPPORTUNITY To Buy TODAY'S STYLES at Yesterday's Prices We can't list ALL The Super Values; There are literally scores like these • • • • Nunn-Bush Shoes $21.00 Hammonton Park Slits to 1/2 Off Hathaway Shirts to 1/2 Off Alter Wear — Nylons — Leather Wools to % Off etc. etc. etc. IF the Snow and Grey Days are getting you down and you're planning to get into the Sun We've got the SUN 'N FUN CLOTHES to help you get the Acapulco Attitude Fashion today is synonymous with personal flair . . . a reflection of you as an individual . . . your hair is an integral part of that look . . . the color, the shaping, the amount of curl . .
