Three Months Campaign Is
Launched to Finance the
Reconstruction and Re-
pair of Charity Buildings
Covers Five-Year Budget
Regret Need of Appealing
to Drive.Weary Public,
but Move Is Necessary

A drive to collect 100000 for re-
construction and repair Of buildings OF
Jewish institutions in New York City
has been started by the United Build
ing Fund of the Federated Jewish In
stitutions, Jacob II. Schiff, chairman
of the campaign, announced yesterday.
At present these institutions arc
badly in need of repair. and many OF
them are overcrowded. This. Mr..
Schiff explained, made the drive nec-
essary at this time. despite the fact
that the public has grown weary Of
many similar campaigns.
"The needs of our organization for
adequate building accomm odations are
so great that they can no longer be
put sside," Mr.. Schif emphasized.
"The Bronx, with a population equal
to that Of the City Of Boston. has no
adequate jewish hospital. The Hebrew
Orphan Asylum, which formerly
ranked at the head of Class A among
child-caring institutions, has its
twelve hun dred boys and girls crowded
into building that has become made
quate. 1t is impossible to permit this
condition to continue. Delay in con-
struction which might have been for
given under war conditions cannot be
permitted any longer. We would not
properly be discharging our response
biities to the community if we did not
set out at once to remedy these con-
ditions."
Covers Five-Year Needs
Contributors will have the privilege
Of making their payments in four
yearly instruments Considering the
money spent in the last decades in
yearly building programmes" Mr..
Schif declared, "the amount which we
are now trying to raise should not
seem formidable, as it will mean a
yearly building programme of ST.
100000 and will cover the building
needs of all our institutions for the
next five years.

(for everything legitimate in the COM
munal interest is dear to me-, but be-

the past and that reconstruction would
now occupy our energies.
Neglected During War
"But we must come before the public
again in this institutional building
as the result of patriotic
sacrifices and self denials made during
the war. For five years nothing has
been done for the buildings OF our in
stitutions. During the four years of
war their conditions deterorated, for
not even necessary improvements could
be made.
"The need for Americanzstion work,
brought home TO US forcibly in the last
years, cannot be satisfied unless new
are forthcoming for this
purpose. 1t is, therefore, with reluct-
ance that we come before the public
in the name Of the sick. the orphan, the
immigrant and the other needy ones

Buck Private Gets
$4,000. Year Job
AS Sales Manager
Employment Bureau Finds
1t Difficult to Place a
Lot of Others, However;
Young Officers Problem

Although Private David Shanks, who
came home from France as casual a
few weeks ago, obtained position as
salesmanager at $4,000 year yester-
day through the Soldiers and Sailors
Unemployment Bureau, the problem of
restoring the fighters to civilian berths
is by no means solved. Major Warren
Bgelow, commanding the service, said
Yesterday. The bureau is situated at
sos Pearl Street.
The bureau was buster yesterday
than ever in its two months history.
971 men applying for positions. or
these. 47S registered for the first time.
while there is nothing alarming
about the unemployment of soldiers
Major Bigelow said, there undoubted-
ly is a serious situation which must be
met. We have mad more than 10000
applications in two months and have
managed to place more than 90 per
cent"
Sixty-three Per Cent Placed
Major Bigelow said employers are
learning the value of fighters as work
ers. During the week before last, he
said, SO per cent of the applicants were
placed
About 80 per cent of the men are
in civilian clothes Only their tan and
the thickness of their shoulders. distin-
guish them from those who didn't go.
They want all kinds Of jobs. Most
Of them want to stay outdoors. Major
Bgelow declared former clerks are
turning to mechanical and technical
employment. Last week, he said, lo7
men asked to be- trained for manual
work, preferring it to clerkships.
Salaries asked for range from SIS
week to $1,000 year. The clerkships
are the worst paying positions. the ma
jor declared. while some common la
borers receive as high as $500 day.
The major had occasion yesterday po-
litely to censure an employer who
wanted about fifty men at sl2 week.
lie told the employer $l2 a week would
not buy beef stew for men with 40-inch
chests. The major has set sls as the
minimum for all except apprc cnticeship
positions.
Montana Youth Sent Home
Private David Shanks came in line
directly behind large boned youth
whom Major Bigelow told to go back
to his home in Montana, and who is GO
ing there to-day. This youth wanted
any kind Of work so long as Il was in
New York
"How much salary do you want?"
Major Bigelow asked Shanks after the
latter had said he was a pretty good
salesman.
"Oh, five thousand will do" the pri-
vate said quietly.
A short time before major Of artil-
lery had returned somewhat disap-
pointed from an interview with the
manager of large pain. concern in
need OF salesmanager at $4,000. The
major had failed to make connections.
Private Shanks wanted to make try
for 1t.
He was gone two hours. When he
returned he said that they had prom
ised him $4,000, just for start.
Young ensigns and lieutenants are
the bureaus greatest problem.
"These men are good executives be-
cause they commanded men, Major
Bigelow said, "but they have had no
training in any certain line of bust
ness. They refuse to begin at Tie bot
tom. and we have few opportunities
for men with their qualifications. They
have no intention of returning to col
lege or to their home towns"

covenant.
White House officials have no def

how much | appreciate their recent
speeches. -and how firmly I believe
they have rendered the country great
service in supporting the policies
