The Women’s Division, Brooklyn Federation of Jewish Charities, will extend its roll call to June 14. It is conducted in connection with the Federation’s $500,000 annual campaign. The division is seeking to add 10,000 contributors. Mrs. Nathan L. Goldstein is general chairman of the roll call and County Judge Algeron L. Nova heads the campaign.
Although the roll call was to terminate May 31, by which time, Mrs. Goldstein announced, some $3,000 was brought in, so many prospects have been developed that it was decided to prolong it.
Supreme Court Justice Mitchell May, president of the Federation, praised the work of the women in the roll call which is instrumental in interesting new people in the work of the organization on behalf of constituent Charities.
It was also announced on behalf of the Junior Federation, through its president, Irving P. Kartell, that the Year Book will be issued late this month, containing the history of the group’s five years and other information. The Juniors are planning a marine-sport dance at the Half Moon Hotel, Coney Island, on June 16.
