The 50th anniversary of the United Jewish Social Services of Kansas City was celebrated here this week.
In an editorial comment on the occasion, the Kansas City Jewish Chronicle declared: “The Jewish community as a whole owes a never-payable debt to the men and women who, in the past, created our social institution and to those who today, with their sense of dedication and consecration, carry its purposes from strength to strength.”
