This city will be the scene of a statewide conference early in November to organize campaigns in every city in Illinois, exclusive of Chicago and the metropolitan area for the United Jewish Appeal and other Jewish causes.
Seventy-seven “downstate” communities will participate in the conference and will be represented by 250 delegates. Rabbi Ferdinand M. Isserman of St. Louis will deliver the main address at the conference.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
