Major Gift for New Home for Aged Presented to Jewish Welfare Agency
The Columbus Jewish Home for 'Aged by action of its board of trustees, has transferred $10,000 tp the Columbua Jewish Welfare Foundation to be eeirmarlced by /:.^e Foundation for a new home
iiJTSlie Columbus Jewish Welfare 'Siotmdatlon was recently estab¬ lished as a community organiza¬ tion incorporated under the laws of Ohio as a non-profit, tax- exempt Institution to consider future' needs of the Columbus Jewish community which are not normally met by the United Jew¬ ish  Fund.
One of Its major purposes is to encourage gifts and bequests whioh can be earmarked or un- earmarked for current or future capital needs which face our com¬
munity. Such needs may be for a home for the atged, the Jewish Center or any of our present or future communal agencies or In¬ stitutions. The Foundation does not replace the campaign needs of the United Jewlshr Fund whl6h are essentially for the operating budgets of our local, regional, national ahd overseas beneficiar¬ ies.
«   *   *
The establishment of the Foun¬ dation Is a current development taking place among the leading communities throughout the country to finance current and far range needs not provided for through the welfare fund. The Foundation becomes a very useful and convenient Instrument for those  In   our   community  who
would like to memorialize mem¬ bers of their family In some special and fitting manner and who would like to do this In the form v' ^ one time contribution. The Foundation offers a variety of BpecisU ways to benefit our services at home or elsewhere, through a community institution which peirmits the gift to be tax deductible.
Mr. Shlnbach has appointed Troy A. Feibel chairman of Pub¬ lic Relations to promote the pro¬ gram and services of the Founda¬ tion. An approplate brochure will be prepared for public distribu¬ tion. Serving the committee are the following: Gus Brown Sr., Robert Weller, A. B. Welnfeld, Herman Katz, Fred Yenkin, Jack Resler and Justin Slllman.

COUNCIL BIRTHDAY
PARTY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON
By PAULINl!: KAHN
With the coming celebration of the Columbus Section, National Council of Jewish Women's 41st organizational birthday, comes the realization that two wars have come and gone. In their wake, many people found them¬ selves faced with homelessness and hopelessness. Some of them, however, found new hpraes and new hope through the efforts of Council Women of the world over. More explicitly, on the local scen^, the leadership of Mrs. E. J; Gordon has Inspired others Into the program of service to new¬ comers In our communlity.
The work In this field has been greatly varied and tedious yet many women work extensively providing whatever assistance Is needed in an effort to fully in¬ tegrate newcomers to our com¬ munity life.
Hospitality to newcomers under the direction of Mrs. Leo Elfer¬ man may extend from meeting these people eo finding them suit¬ able living quarters. Interpreting for them, helping them to shop, or locating a job.
Through Mrs. Dan (Dohen and her committee, Americanization can become a reality. Not only do these women see to it that new¬ comers are guided to their classes, but the Intricate job of assistance in filling, out and proper presenta¬ tion of Important legal papers is completed. This one aspect ot service to forel^m bom sponsored by CTouncU barely covers this field of endeavor.
'The high Ideals set forth In the National Council of Jewish Wo¬ men's Credo "in the spirit of Judaism, Is dedicated to human welfare." The local section more than meets this challenge.
Under the leaderahip of many outstanding local women. Council moves forward progressively to meet the challenges. In retro¬ spect, and at present. Council can look yllth pride to Its Scholarship Program which has brought many students from all over the world to American universities to study social services, American teaching methods, and the demo¬ cratic way of life.
In keeping with that same theme, the Shlp-A-Box program, under the chairmanship of Mra. Isadore Rinkov, senda clothing, supplies and toys to children In Israel and Morocco In the various Institutions there.
For the birthday liincheOn, which Is Tuesday, 12:30 p, m., at Winding Hollow Country Club, a strong plea Is being made for dime store musical Inatruments donations so that Shlp-A-Box can bring music Into the lives of thoae children. Cymbals, harmonicas, triangles, whistles or bells are just a few suggestions of what mernbers  might  bring.
An entertaining program, under the chairmanship of Mra. Maury Tarcov, has been planned with the presentation of Nora West, who win give the "w;hya" and "wherefors" of Hawaii.
In keeping with the program, the luncheon will be served "Luau" style, All membera are Invited.
