A drive for fnnds for the United Jewish Appeal is now being made all over America. The United Jewish Appeal consists of two organlsstlops, tbs Joint Distribution committee knd the United Palestine Appeal. Tha Joint Distribution committee rescues refugees of all faiths from Hitler’s Oennany and conqusred countries. These refugees are fed, clothed and moved from 'the fighting zones. ’Hien they are rehabilitated. Most of these refugees are Jews since the brunt of Hitler’s fury fell upon the Jewish people, however any anti-Nasis of Catholic or Protestant faith, who are refugees from the Nazis srs also taken care of by the Joint Distribution committee. The United Palestine Appeal pro vides a home for some of these refu gees. The quota for Camden is $2000 The Jewish commnnity, which oon- sists of 11 families, has raised $600. The cornmnnity fund allocated $600 to this cause. ’This means sre are $900 short of our goal. There will be no psrsonal solicita tion to the Christian Community for help In this drive, however, any In- dividnal who would like to donate to this worthy cause can send their con tribution to Mr. Sam Karesh, Miss Rosalie Block or Mrs. Leon Schlos- bnrg.' These velnntary gifts will be most acceptable i|nd greetly appre- olated. NOTICE Qrowins Uzalis • Oxalis should be cut back^ust as soon as -ii-stops flowering.
