Civic and philanthropic leaders will join in celebrating the sixtieth anniversary of the Jewish Social Service Association in Town Hall this afternoon. Surveys of the past, present and future of family social work in the life of the community will be presented by speakers.
Ira M. Younker, president, will speak on “The Jewish Social Service Association and Today’s Changing World.” Frances Taussig, executive director, will deliver an address entitled “Tomorrow— Today—Yesterday.” Other speakers will include Charles C. Burlingham, president of the Welfare Council of New York, and Walter S. Gifford, president of the Charity Organization Society. Ralph Wolf will be chairman.
During the afternoon, as dramatic feature of the program, a dramalogue, “Not By Bread Alone,” written by Viola Paradise, will be broadcast from Town Hall over the Columbia Network from coast to coast.
The dramalogue broadcast, presented with the cooperation of the “March of Time” cast, directed by Arthur Pryor Jr., and under the musical direction of Howard Barlow, will be heard over Station WABC from 4:30 to 5:00 p. m. Written in the manner of the “March of Time” broadcast, the dramalogue is designed to interpret the many-sided work of the family welfare agency.
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.
