Seattle Jewry will attempt to raise a minimum quota of $10,000 to aid co-religionists in Eastern Europe and Palestine in a drive officially launched March 14, Emanuel Rosenberg, chairman of the Allied Jewish Campaign, which will conduct the drive jointly for the Joint Distribution Campaign and the American Palestine Campaign, announced.
“Three years have passed since we have contributed any funds to the Joint Distribution Committee or the Jewish Agency.” Mr. Rosenberg declared, “The sum we have set as Seattle Jewry’s quota is extremely moderate if we realize that it will be used to avert starvation and actual physical privations and that the very existence of all rehabilitative efforts developed in the years since the war, are being threatened today.”
