Previous to meeting Herr Krupp

several of the leading men of the
Krupps who are interested in seeing
their country and their plant back on
their feet. Among these was Herr
Fritz Homann. Herr Sehcimrat WED

pressed positive and none too optir1is-

hope for the future, provided the

Homann showed me over the immense

More Funds Asked for
Jewish Relief Demands

Eleven separate wars are being
waged east of the Austrian
frontier. according to reports received
by Felix NJ. Warburg. chairman of the
joint distribution committee of the
American Funds for Jewish War Suf-
ferers. AS q result, said Mr.. Warburg
yesterday, the sufferings Of Jewish peo-
Piles in Poland, Austria, Siberia and
elsewhere are more terrible than ever
before since the world was plunged
into hostilities.
Reports as to the frightful condition
among the Jews in Eastern Europe and
Asia are coming direct from repre-
sentatives Of the distribution commit
tee, said the chairman, who appealed to
Americans to give literally for relief.
Because Of the immense demands for
help the $5,000,OO0 fund recently col
lected in the Jewish war relief drive in
in this city is rapidly becoming ex-
hausted.
More than $1,O00,oO0 has been spent
to ship cargo Of supplies to Poland.
The committee also has sent 100000
worth of supplies to Armenia, Syria
and Turkey.

War Work Praised
Board of Charities says TO-
900 of Them Fought in
Army and NAVY

The fifty-second annual report Of the
State Board of Charities to the Legis-
lature has been made public. Its
main points are that $4,000, ,O00 was
expended for maintenance alone of the
organization dispensing charity under
supervision of the board; that larger
sums were handled without sucpes
tlon of dishonesty. and that 10000 bows
previously cared for in various insti-
tutlons had made a splendid record
in the army and navy.
Under the heading of recommended
tions, the board strongly indorses
health insurance, saying that rs per
cent of poverty is due to illness. 1t
also says that vast as charity expendi
lures now are, they are likely to be-
come greater, and urges all communi-
ties of the state to join in efforts to re-
duce them through organized efforts
to abate the causes of crime, i'll health
and poverty
The board further recommends. that
the plans for rehabilitating men dis
abled in war be extended to the victims
of industrial accidents, and that indus
trial education facilities be largely ex-
panded as another preventive of crime
and pauperism.

200, 900 Jews i'm Army
And Navy, Records Show
II Per Cent of Men i'm Combat
Division; 1000 Killed
i'm Action

A preliminary digest of the war
record of American Jews was issued
yesterday by the war records division
of the American Jewish Committee.
This shows that while Jews number
about per cent of the population they
constituted practically S per cent Of the
United States armed forces at the
time the armistice was signed.
There were at that time between
10000 and 200,0 Jews in tho army
and navy, and of these 72 per cent
were in the combat branches. The rec
ords have not been completed. The
report issued yesterday covered 1OO,-
600 men. but the statistics so far com
piled show that the Jewish casualties
were approximately 10000, Of whom
1000 were killed in action.
The number of Jewish commissioned
officers SO far recorded includes 5,162
in the army, 206 in the navy and forty
in the Marine Corps. Julian Leavitt,
head of the war records division, be-
heyes, however, that this number will
be doubled by the time the tabula-
tions are completed. The highest rank
ing Jew in the army is brigadier
general. The same rank was attained
in the marine corps, and in the navy
there is Jewish real admiral.
