Following a conference of representatives of all of the Greater Boston Jewish labor organizations, fraternal orders and other societies, a resolution was adopted pledging the support of these organizations in aid of the $900,000 campaign for the Associated Jewish Philanthropies.
This is the first time that members of Jewish labor organizations have been asked to participate actively in a drive for funds for Jewish charitable organizations.
Joseph Bearack was chairman of the conference. In addition to the resolution pledging support, another resolution was adopted asking that the various organizations be represented on the committees of the Associated Jewish Philanthropies.
