Support of local Jewish philanthropies has shown a numerical loss in recent years, although the total amount of money raised for Jewish charities has increased, according to a survey made public yesterday by the Federation for the Support of Jewish Philanthropic Societies.
Dudley D. Sicher, president of the Federation, announced that as a result of the study, a membership campaign would be conducted under the chairmanship of S. W. Straus. The peak of the membership reached by the Federation, the study reveals, was 34,293 in 1926.
The survey also cites figures from community chests in other cities of the United States, showing that Cleveland has the highest record for communal giving, with one giver for every non-giver. The Federation shows 25 non-givers for every giver during the last year. The study of community giving in the Federation survey shows the comparative number of givers and non-givers in community chests of ten important cities in the United States.
