"What excuse-have vve foi- remaining Jews un-' . less  the  world  is  better   for  it?    Wc can't function without funds." .    At.the 30th biennial convention of the .

¦ American Jewry with the work of the .Union and urge it to give liberal support.
Tlic. resolution designated the month of Mareh as the tinie for this concentrated
: effort to secure funds, but this campaign was deferred until this month., ; ¦ A,budget of approximately $000,000 is required for the religious activities of the Union aiid its affiliated bodies for the current year.
