Another type of work attempted
by the Talmud Torah Social Service
in cooperation with other local agen-
cies, is the Health Program: Infant
Welfare, Prenatal and Dental Gin
les, which have an aggregate attend
ance of twenty-five hundred during
the year. Americanization, not in
the narrow sense of the word, classes
in cooking, millinery, expression,
aesthetic and social dancing, occupy
very important part in the Social
Service Program. The records show
that the attendance in these special
lied activities is no less than fifteen
thousand. Turnout the year the audi
torium of the Talmud Torah accom-
modated most of the neighborhool en-
tertainments and meetings, such as
celebrations of Jewish and American
holidays, concerts, plays, moving pic
lures and athletic contests. Together
with the Sunday Community Dances,
the number of people who availed
themselves of these neighborhood af-
fairs reaches thirty-fve thousand.
Another important item in the So
cial Service Program consists of spe-
cial summer activities, namely Kinder
garten, Swimming, Mothers picnics.
These too, the records show, have an
aggregate attendance of 5000.
One can readily see from this brief
report rendered to the readers of the

Social Service Department are, and
who are it's beneiciaries, and of what
value the work is to the social and

reader judge for him or herself.
Much has been done during the past

needs, the Jewish Community of Min
neapolis has done little in furthering
efforts in behalf of Social Service
work. May the New Year bring a
keener interest in our communal prob
lens, and may their solutions be with
in the reach of our public spirited men
and women.

money, energy and personal service,
to an extent that little or nothing
else could be undertaken. No one
however, is his own master in public
work. The Talmud Torah doors have
to be thrown open to the large public,
not for merely educational purposes,
but also for social and recreational.
The North Side which harbors al
most eighty per cent of the Jewish
population in Minneapolis, lacks COM
munal center, and the Talmud Torah,
against it's own will, and as some
would have it, against the interests
of it's program, was obliged to ill
the bill. This was meant to be only
a temporary arrangement-The Tai
mud Torah was to adopt Social Ser
vice work until the proper guardian
could be found. In the meantime the
work grew in such large proportions
that today this adopted activity of the
Talmud Torah has almost reached
maturity, if not in age, in it's manifold
activities.
In most cities the size of Mime
apolis, special equipped buildings, such
as Young Mems and Young Women's
Hebrew Associations, Jewish Centers,
etc., are maintained by the Jewish
Community to carry out this very
program, which the Talmud Torah
Social Service Dept. endeavors TO ac-
complish with it's meagre financial
means and limited space.
What are the achievements of the
Talmud Torah Social Service Dept,
who benefit by it's existence and of
what value, if any, is it to the social
and civic life of the community?
Lack Of space will not permit de-
tailed answer to the threefold ques-
ton, but it is sufficient to say that be-
tween January and September, 1922,
the aggregate attendance of the Tai
mud Torah Social Service Dept. was
$4,000, which may also mean that
within period of twelve months the
attendance will have reached the hum
dred ten thousand mark.
Within the limited quarters of the
Talmud Torah allotted for Social Ser
vice work, fifty-two clubs of all ages,
both male and female, meet regularly
turnout the year. Even during the
hottest summer months, organization
meeting quarters are seldom vacant.
If name of an institution connotes
it's program of activities, the Talmud
Torah Social Service Dept. should be
called the Jewish center of Mime
apolis, for within it's walls, one could
ind any activity which may interest

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
Money rate. Advance.

Several New York institutions were
heavy debtors at the Clearing House
yesterday and. because a few of them
were large lenders OF call funds, there
was an unexpectedly heavy calling Of
loans. Consequently the rate advanced
from a renewal OF Az per cent. to a
high and final rate OF per cent. The
largest amount of loans called had been
put out by a trust company which had
been Il heavy lender OF call funds for
thirty days and that institution reported
no withdrawal Of funds by out OF town
institutions. but merely a large debit bal
ance at the Clearing House. There ap-
pears to be plenty of time and call
funds for lending at a rate. but drop
below & per cent. causes institutions TO
use funds elsewhere. "A bid yesterday
of 4a4 per cent. for ninety day all in
dustriai found few willing to lend. but
S per cent. bid brought it out. Despite
furry to G per cent. which
followed a similar step a few days ago,
no banker believed that a rate aboXe
Az per cent. for call funds would be
long maintained. In fact the furry Is
said to be merely temporary. The with
drawal Of sS,O00.000 Of United States
deposits was not large enough to drive
call money to per cent, but. added 70
calling of loans, the maximum OF o per
cent. caused no surprise.

Mexican OIL Taxes.

OIL men here declined yesterday to dis

taxes. Payment of long delayed export
taxes Is due on January 25, It Is UNDER
stood. and 1t is expected that an agree
ment will be made before then. On De-
cember 25. when export taxes since last
July were payable, the Mexican Govern
meut granted an extension of q month to
the oil companies. pending the settlement
OF their differences. At that time
$13.000,000 was involved in the export
taxes. but It is believed that the amount
Is now considerably larger.

velopments which might account for its
strength were fruitless. 1t has been
