Miami.-(Jewish Telegraphic
Agency Report of Special Rep
resentative on Scene of Dis
aster)-The Jewish population
of Miami and the surrounding
area laid in ruins by the hurri-
cane is not in need of bread re-
lief. They require constructive
help in the form of loans with
which to build up their ruined
houses and their trade.
This was made clear today at
conference of local Jewish leaders,
called for the purpose of organizing
central Jewish relief committee.
Both the Orthodox and Reform ele-
ments participated in the conference
which took place at the Gralyn Hotel.
A joint executive was elected, with
David Cromer as chairman; d. Apte
and II. Magid, ice-chairmen; A.
Aronovitz. secretary and Isadore
Cohen. treasurer. Rabbi Murray AL
sted, Orthodox, and DR.. Jacob Kap-
Ian, Reform, were appointed counsel
lors.
The survey made by the represen-
tative of the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency in Miami, Hialesh, Coral
Gables, Coconut Grove and Hollywood
shows that the Jewish population suf-
fered little in proportion to the
general population. Only five Jewish
families applied for food at the re-
lief headquarters of the Red Cross
in Miami, which is supplying kosher
food for the Jewish sufferers.
Fever Feared
A committe of Jewish attorneys
was organizedr today to give legal
aid to the Jewish victims of the dis
aster. Warning of the possibility of
typhoid fever from the infected
water supply was issued by the NUM-
cipal authorities here. The devastated
area is still without electric light and
telephone service.
Isadore Shwartz, one of the Jewish
victims, was buried today. He died
when sheet of tin fell during the
storm and fractured his skull.
The Orlando lodge of the Independ-
ent Order B'nai Birth informed the
Miami Jewish aid committee of
large sum being raised at Orlando for
the relief of the Jewiseh population
in the stricken area.

DR.. Boris Bogen, Secretary of I. o.

in Cincinnati, declared that the dam
age had not been exaggerated by the

WILL SERVE GRATUS
1926 Campaign TO Be Handled By
Volunteer Business and
Professional Army

The annual appeal to the generous
citizens of the city to aid the Denver
Community Chest will be made in
November. Ten days, beginning
November l2 and ending November
%, will be set aside for the purpose
of soliciting funds to carry on the
philanthropic and constructive work
done for the fifty agencies, members
of the Chest.
President Frank McDonough of
the Community Chest and the ex-
ecutive committee, after long con-
scientious deliberation, have decided
on number of basic principles which
will simplify the campaign and un-
doubtedly assist in making the fifth
campaign a marked success.
No Paid Workers
in former campaigns, there have
been adverse criticisms voiced be-
cause professional campaigners have
been brought from eastern cities to
direct the campaign" said Mr.. Nc
Donough. 1.-THE professional and
bushes men who are active in the
great philanthropic work being done
by the Community Chest, have de-
termined to obviate this criticism by
carrying on the entire work OF the
1925 campaign without paid leader
Ship he added. "The heads of all
the committees and the leaders of
each division in the Chest army are
volunteers rendering their services
Erstuitously and are earnestly seek
ing additional volunteers, who will
enlist for the work in the November
campaign. The same principle will
be adhered to in regard to clerical
assistance which may be required, by
obtaining this service from Denver
residents.
Military Organization
The same semi-military organiza-
ton plan of the Chest army, which
proved most efficient and successful
in former campaigns will be followed
again this year. Experienced men
and women volunteers who will en-
list this year for the duration of the
campaign will again have the leader
ship, said Mr.. McDonough.
In addition to the general commit
tee the army consists of three divi-
sions the Home divisions, Business
and professional division and In
dustrial division. The volunteers in
each of these divisions will devote
their time to the solicitation of the
residents included in their districts
Headquarters for each division will
be maintained in various sections of
the city which will simplify the work
of the Chest army.
Checking Prospects
Mr.. McDonough emphasized the
Importance of the preliminary work
of compiling the lists of prospects in
such manner as to reduce the work
of the actual drive to minimum
thus aiding the solicitors in their
work,

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Feb. 18.-Speculators and
commission houses switched largely

market here and with Liverpool quo.
tatlons showing unexpected strength
a material advance of wheat values
in Chicago was the resula. Closing
prices here for wheat although un-
settled B to 23s cents net higher,
May (new) 1.675s @1.67% and July
l49 to 1497s Corn finished 3s OF Is
cents up, oats at 3s@h to y cent
gain, and provisions showing a rise
of II to 25@27 cents. An outstand-
ing factor favorable to the buying
side of the wheat market was an
estimate from trade authority that
even should United States wheat ex.
ports between now and July 1 be as
low as 25,000,000 as the final domes-
tic carryover would only be &c, ,OOO, 900
bushels. Helped by this forecast and
oy the fact that offerings were light,
there was much more general de-
mand for future deliveries of wheat
than has been the rule of late Be-
sides, messages from the seaboard
indicated better export inquiry and
predictions were current that il
American markets were firm for sew
eral days a good sized amount of
business with Europe was likely to
develop.
Assertions that the Liverpool wheat
advance was due to buying orders
from America tended to discount
TO some extent the effect here. Re-
ports of widespread snow and rain
beneficial to the winter wheat crop
IN this country did good deal also
TO bring some selling pressure
against the July delivery in particu-
lar On the other hand colder wealth.
er in sight was more or less of an
offset and there was buying. too.
based on likelihood that the coming
official report on farm reserves of
wheat may prove bullish.
Corn and oats were firmer, respon-
sive to wheat strength and to pre-
vail ng rough weather In addition
cesh corn demand was better with
shipping sales here the largest in
some time.
Provisions ascended with grain and
hogs.
