The 1933 Community Chest campaign will be conducted May 15 to 22 and no supplementary campaign is planned for this winter, according to an announcement made at the annual meeting, The failure of the Community Chest campaign for 1932 had made it obligatory for the various Jewish and other Chest-supported agencies to operate on a basis below minimum standards. Payments on 1932 pledges are being made promptly and the 1932 collection record as of Nov. 1 is only slightly below that of 1931. The Jewish Children’s Home, the Jewish Home for the Aged, the Jewish Young Men’s and Women’s Association and the Jewish Welfare Council are among the institutions supported by the Chest.
