Jewish congreea tions were asked yes
terday by Felix Warburg, national
campaign chairman Of the American

brow. Zemach Green. Joshua Kleven,

Metz. Henry Segal and Aaron volk-
man.
Warburg said the committee has
since 1914 given service in line with
the principles Of the Maimonidean
code, the highest expression Of charity
known to man. 1t has made 1t pos
sible for American Jewry to give
anonymously and thus without en-
barrassment to the recipients over
seas and secondly-And this Is the
peak Of all human service-it has
enabled the needy to help themselves,
to become more self-reliant and to
hold their heads high once more as
equals Of other people in the world.

ask you to devote part of your Rosh
Hashana or Yom Kippur services to
