CLFVKLANI). OHIO: The problem of ineeling the operating deficit estimated at $W>,()i)l) fur the current year, was again attacked by the Trustees and Di¬ rectors of Ucllcfaire, the Cleveland Jew¬ ish Ori>haii Home, when tliey held their quarterly meeting last Saturday and Sunday, October Mth and 15tli.
"A few of tlie directors were able to rci>ort progress, and all of them have agreed to intensify their efforts- by lanncbing oampaigiis for annual mainte¬ nance subscri])tions in their respective communities," stated the President, Fred Lazarus, Jr., of Calnmlins, Ohio.
"Wc are also hopeful that we may receive additional help frojn our con- •stitueiit Welfarefederatioas, due to the fact that child care is one of the needs that is not included in-the program of public relief, and should therefore re¬ ceive a greater share of private philan- fhroi>y. The larger communities must lelp the smaller ones that have no means of taking care of their dependent chil¬ dren,'' said Mr. Lazarus. '
