New Quarters; Library Widely Used
By ADOLPH
Atlanta’s Bureau of Jewish
Education is in a new location.
The Bureau facilities, which

include one of the most compre
hensive Jewish libraries in the
of offices in the old Chamber of
Commerce Building, at Auburn
and Pryor Streets, according to
Sam Rosenberg, executive direc
tor.
The Bureau offices are on the
same floor with those of the Fed
eration, Atlanta Community
Council and Welfare Fund.
in announcing the removal of
the Bureau during Jewish Book
Month, Mr. Rosenberg was par
ticularly anxious to throw the
spotlight on the organization’s
library.
It occupies a room of its own,
with a convenient table for pe
rusing, brousing or taking of

the shelves are put, for Mr. Ro
senberg said the Bureau library
is often visited by adults of the
community, by teachers in Sun
day schools, professionals and
others.
The library has an even wider
use for it is open to the general
community and any reader who
wishes to visit the library and
borrow a book is invited to do
so.
Mr. Rosenberg has the books
neatly flep.-l.ated by general clas
sification, such as Customs and
Religion, Palestine, Holidays,
Hebrew and so on. The section
on Education is especially fine.
Besides books, which have a
wide appeal, the library con
tains an audio-visual section
with some intertaining film
strips plus a projector for the
use of schools, classes and indivi
duals. Some of the most interest
ing film strips deal with Bible
stories.
Also an hand is a wide sel
ection of recordings of music,
song and' stories.
The Atlanta Bureau, Mr. Ros
enberg, explained, not only
serves its specific field in Atlan
ta, but is called upon very often
Iby the communities—some of
them quite large in Georgia
and neighboring states for ad
vice, aid in ordering books and
planning.
And naturally, the Bureau di
rector is quite willing to oblige
for the educational facilities of
the set-up are not intended alone
for neat cataloguing and filing
on some shelf, but for use and
repeated, use by groups and indi
viduals.
The resources of the Bureau
library are at the disposal not
only for reading and reference
but as guides and samples fot-
persons and other communities
wishing to profit from them.
“Pay us a visit" is the cordial
invitation of Mr. Rosenberg.

Part y officials immediately
launched a boom for Rep. Ribi-
coff for Governor in 1954. Ribi-
coff, who ran over 80,000 votes
ahead of the Democratic slate,
was considered to have made a
remarkable demonstration of
rote-getting.
A pre-election survey by the
JTA showed that while most
Jewish organizations maintained
an impartial stand on the elec
tion, leaders and individual mem
bers of the Jewsh community
were extremely active in both
Democratic and R e p u b 1 i can
camps. In many communities, the
leadership was almost equally di
vided in support of the two can
didates.
