"I am confident that Mr. Fox will be able to bring this story to the men in his division, lie is a competent, capable worker, who has indicated in many ways his dedication and devotion to the local Jewish community, as well as Jewish affairs throughout the world..

"I know these men would not willingly deny their children the benefits of <l religious education, the fun of the Esther K. Newman Camp, the youth clubs, tin; athletic uicilit-itrs at
the Jewish Community Center, all (if which are .supported by campaign funds. The simple fools are, that it costs morn money to provide these .services than it did a year ago, and it's the responsibility of every Jew in the community to assume his fair share of these increased costs.
