Recommendations as to the quota which every Jewish community in the United States should accept in the nation-wide $170,000,000 campaign of the United Jewish Appeal in 1947, were made at a two-day meeting of the National Committee on Community Quotas held here over the week-end.
In considering the 1947 quota for each community attention was given to many factors, including “Jewish population, economic resources, community organization, leadership and social vision.” Every community conducting a Spring campaign on behalf of the United Jewish Appeal will shortly receive a formal statement from the committee regarding the recommendation of its quota.
