Friday, September 11, IMF
Atlanta Fund
President Lauds
Study Group
Atlanta’s leadership of the
Women’s Division of tne Welfare
Fund was launded this week by
Abe Goldstein, president of the
Atlanta Jewish Welfare Fund,
for making a personal invest
ment in study missions “over and
beyond the call of duty".
"I note with interest the story
in last week’s ‘Southern Israe
lite’ which stated that Mrs. Mil-
ton Rauzin and Mrs. J. N. Rosen-
feld were representing Atlanta
on a study mission which left
New York on Wednesday.
“I believe, however, that spe
cial commendation is due to these
leaders for undertaking this mis
sion in behalf of their communi
ty, especially when it is con
sidered that this represents a
personal investment on ther part.
Those of us who are associated
with Welfare Fund work under
stand that the study missions
conducted by the National Wom
en’s Division of the UJA fur
nishes only leadership and guid
ance - but those who go from
each community finance their
own trips.
“Mrs. Rauzin and Mrs. Rosen-
feld stated, last week, that they
looked forward to this study mis
sion for the greater understand
ing it would bring them and
hoped that they in turn would be
able to relay the results of their
experience to the entire divi
sion.
“One of the most heartwarm
ing experiences in working with
Welfare Fund volunteer person-
el is the intense personal dedica
tion they bring to their tasks.
They are truly dedicated in that
they give of themselves, their
time, and of their money and
ask only, in return, that they be
rewarded with the privilege of
continuing to serve.
“What is true of the study mis
sion of the Women’s Division is
also true of UJA study missions
for men. Atlanta was privileged
to have its own 1959 General
Chairman, Max Cuba, make a
similar mission on his own time
and at his own expense. These
volunteer study activities on the
part of Atlanta’s lay leadership
is further evidence of their re
markable community spirit and
is further reason why the whole
Jewish community has supported
the concept of ‘one community
. . . one campaign . . . one con
tribution’ which has been the
foundation upon which the suc
cess of the Atlanta Jewish Wel
fare Fund has been built.”
Fair Notice, Organizations
Ooops, that’s our deadline moving up!
For nearly twenty years at least, The Southern Israelite has
tried to maintain a late deadline for the convenience of our reader-
ship.
For nearly ten years, it has been Tuesday noon. Never a week
passes but some organisational officer or publicity chairman ex
presses surprise to find this out or come up with a matchless excuse
why an exception must be made in this case. Some even think the
deadline Is Thursday, because that’s the day the paper is mailed. We
only wish we were so big, we could continue a late deadline.
We’ve gone along with these recalcitrants whenever we could,
taking the rap week after week, year after year, hoping someday the
dawn would break and the deadline would be observed. A “nachtege
toog!” as certain linguists would exclaim.
Most organizations plan programs weeks in advance: some
months. But'the publicity seldom arrives until Tuesday—and very
often afterwards. Sometimes it even bears a later postmark. Our
closest friends are the worst offenders. Perhaps the mails are slower
these days too. ,
Whatever the reasons—or lack of them—after the High Holy
Days, for the issue of October 16 and thereafter, the deadline will
be Friday at 5 pm. for the following week’s edition. Our calendar
will resume that week. Deadline for the October 16 issue, news and
calendar, will be Friday, October 9,
Organisational presidents and publicity chairmen should gear
their planning accordingly. It’ll give the staff a time to breathe, we
hope.
