The board of directors of the Los Angeles Jewish Community Council has voted 36 to 3 against the pending proposal for national advisory budgeting. It instructed its delegates to the general assembly of the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds to be bound by this decision.
The resolution adopted by the board says that the council reaffirms the principle that each community determine by itself, on the basis of factual data which may be available, the manner in which the funds it raises shall be budgeted and allocated.
(Similar decisions were adopted by the Jewish Community Council of Cleveland, the Maine Jewish Council, the Oregon Jewish Welfare Fund and the Jewish Welfare Federation of Hartford, Conn., it was announced today in New York by the Committee to Oppose National Budgeting.)
