The Hebrew Orphan Home and Hebrew Baby Day Nursery here are to merge, and a building will soon be erected to house the combined organization. This was the announcement made at the third annual meeting of the Jewish Welfare Federation of Detroit, held this week.
The building of a Jewish Center which would house all the activities of the Detroit Jewish youth is the most important object facing the Jewish community of this city, declared Henry Wineman, president of the Federation, at the meeting. The three-day-a-week Hebrew school system was recommended in a speech by Ben Rosen of Philadelphia.
A new feature in the work of the Federation is that of the Mothers’ Clinic, which has a competent staff to teach the principles of birth control to those financially and physically in need of information on contraception.
