6 WPA SCHOOL TO CLOSE AHEAD OF SCHEDULED TIME FUND SHORTAGE BRINGS EARLY COMMENCEMENT FOR 1,200 NEGROES The WPA school of Chatham County, consisting of approximately 1,200 negro student* between the ages of 14 and 70. will hold It* clos ing exercises Friday evening at 8 o’clock, six weeks ahead of schedule, due to orders from Atlanta to curtal expenses The school is maintained under the Education Division of the WPA and is in charge of Mrs. Vir ginl Heath, assistant superintendent in Chatham County. It is under the district supervision of Mrs. Frank Mclntire. Dr. R. R. Paty, state director of education, has been extended an in vitation to attend the exercises. Speakers will be announced shortly. The public is also invited to view the outcome of the year * work. The WPA school opened last Octo ber with an enrollment of nearly 1,800. Elementary courses in read ing, writing, arithmetic, and historj' have been taught old and young alike, who did not have the advantage of attending school beyond the third or fourth grade. 500 without any training whatsoever have been taught to read and write. While the ages range from 14 to 70, most of the pu pils are between 14 and 35, Mrs. Heath said this morning. Citizenship is stressed by the teachers. One teacher of vocational agriculture is on the staff, and one teacher of workers’ education. Nine of the instructors held outside night classes at Oyler school for elementary subjects from the first through the twelfth grades. A thousand new students were in the process of enrollment when the order to clo*e the school came from Atlanta. The final six weeks wtre to have been concentrated on these, most of whom were in need of the most fundamental training. Particu lar attention was to have been given NYA workers who had not been be yond the seventh grade. Lack of funds to pay the teachers, Mrs. Heath said, will leave this thousand untrained. The Chatham County Education program made the largest showing in the state at the recent NEA meeting in Macon. A hand made book. “The Chatham County Teachers Speak” showing in print and pictures the work of this section, created much in terest. The staff of teachers here, carefully selected by Mrs. Virginia Heard, assistant superintendent of public schools, is considered one of the best equipped in the district.

SAVANNAH JEWRY OPENS CAMPAIGN SEEK SIO,OOO FOR RACE OP PRESSION; KRONFIELD DELIVERS ADDRESS Spurred to high enthusiasm by the brilliant and moving appeal of Dr J Joseph Saul Komfield, noted Rabbi ' educator and statesman, who acV dressed a mass meeting at the Jewish Alliance last night in behalf of the oppressed Jews of the world, the work ers in the United Jewish campaign started forth this morning with a $lO,- 000 goal before them. Dr. George Solomon announced at the meeting last night that nine sub scribers had already donated $l,lOO of this amount. The campaign is a united front movement on the part of five of the Jewish organizations including B'nai B’rith and Hadassah, to lift the poverty stricken and perse cuted Jews of Germany, Poland, anc other nations out of their miserable state and give them an opportunity to find peace and security in the land of thrit ancestors. Simultaneous ly with Savannah, cities throughou' the country will conduct camp-, gns. Dr. Komfield said last night that the motive behind this campaign fc the highest in the world—love for one’s fellowman. Hatred for Hitler and other anti-Semitic leaders woutf result in nothing, he pointed out- Only massed to aid the dis tressed will accomplish that which is needed. “Forget Hitler,” the dis tinguished speaker admonished, “but remember your fellow Jews. Help them to get out and reach their full stature in another land.” Speakers preceding Dr. Komfield were Morris Bernstein, Jacob Gazan, and Edmund Abrahams.
