Giving. l> ke everything else, must
traditions. Some persons
an ,j communities develop the tradi-
,f giving as a natural growth of
( .jvic and social obligations and inter-
thers have the tradition of
thrust upon them. A war, a
isaster, a national catastrophe
bringing distress and suffering in its
trail, arouse people’s sympathy and
pity, and they give.
An emergency gives people an op-
iity to exercise their generous
mpulses. They become, so to speak,
charitably-minded. But the emer
gency passes, and with it go all the
mechanisms that have aroused the
sympathy and pity which made men
and women of means to give and give
"until it hurt.”
A few communities have been able
carry over the psychology of the
war relief drives to peace time phil
anthropic and social needs. But most
haven’t been able to do so. Atlanta

gotten what it means to give until it
urts, to make sacrifices that others,
' privileged, may live and carry
We are in danger of stunting the
development of our generous im
pulses.
Atlanta is growing. It is expand-
materially and physically. Is its

The Federation is suffering the
same difficulties as the Chest—lack
of financial support. It is unbeliev
able that the Jews of Atlanta will
suffer their charitable work to be cur
tailed. The Federation will launch
soon a membership campaign to en
roll one thousand members. When
you are approached, please remember
that the Federation needs you and
your support.
