This example soon was followed by other boys and girls, and year after yepr it grew until it snow¬ balled into the greatest effort by children to help children. Last year over $2,000,000 was raised to pro¬ vide food, medicine and services for the needy the world over. During the first 16 years of UNICEF's operation, over 162 mil¬ lion children and young adults were vaccinated against tubercu¬ losis aricl over 18 million niothers and children were treated for yaws, a crippling tropical disease. In 1962 about 24 million mothers and chil¬ dren were protected, from malaria and six million benefited from the over 170 milk and other food pro¬ cessing plants and 23,000 maternity and child health centers which UNICEF has helped equip. In a message by President John F. Kennedy, he stated, "I urge all Americans to respond once agam in a spirit of charity and good will to UNICEF's appeal this fall." MRS.

The United Appeals represents the overall or¬ ganization through which we can express this interest. Included in the drive are two vital local Jewish agencies, Jewish Fam¬ ily Service and The Jewish Center, both of which received from the United Appeals a total of $131,744 in 1963. Both agencies require addit¬ ional funds in 1964 to carry on their vital work. The 1963 Menorah Ball, to be pre-1 -" nted on Saturday evening, Nov.

Epstein, our na¬ tional director. We were invited to Germany by the Bonn gov¬ ernment to explore how American experience in combatting bigotry could be applied to the German scene. The present situation in West in Germany is extremely complex. There are many cross currents and forces at play. There is no simple prognosis as to the future of democ¬ racy in Germany. I AM CONVINCED that the West German government is making an intensive effort to strengthen its democracy. The measure of success being actieved by these efforts is subject to differing appraisals and evaluations. There is a considerable divergence between the objctives of the German government and the status of democracy in that country. One German educator stated to me, "You have one of the youngest countries in the world with One of the oldest democracies; we have one of the oldest nations in the world with one of the youngest democracies—we need time." The primary efforts of the Ger¬ man government in building democ¬ racy are devoted to the field of education. Because ot the impor¬ tance of this field and the particular competency of our group, our study team concentrated upon the various aspects of education for democracy in Germany today. We studied the school systems; the public media such as press, radio and television; the educational programs of the army; and the organizations de¬ voted to youth service. In Bonn we met with the Ministers of Interior, Justice, Foreign Affairs, and De¬ fense. Meetings were held with academic exchange agencies, uni¬ versities, institutions, industry and labor leaders. THE ANTI-DEFAMATION Lea¬ gue has been carrying on a continu¬ ous study of developments in Ger¬ many since 1954 when a three-man study team under the leadership of Epstein visited' Germany for the first time to check and compare changes and developments with the situation which existed in previous years. There has been a jaignificant change in the attitude or German educators towards the Hitler period and towards citizenship training in the schools.
