ST 0000 RASED FORAID OFJEWRY Renewa! of Effort Urged to Help Those in Nazi Germany. More than $1,500,000 has been raised by the United Jewish Appeal in its campaign for funds for the relief and rehabilitation of Jews in Germany, Poland and other lands, for settlement of Jews in Palestine, it was an- nounced yesterday by Felix M. War- burg, national chairman of the United Jewish Appeal of the Joint Distribu- tion Committee and the American Palestine campaign. At the same time, Warburg made an urgent appeal for a renewal of ef- fort to obtain larger sums for Ger- man Jewish relief before the end of the year. A Nation-wide appeal to Jews will be conducted during the forthcoming Jewish high holidays, which begin the evening of September 27. In Wash- ington, an intensification of the collec- tion campaign is expected immediately 50 all funds outstanding on pledges previously made may be remitted to the national headquarters in New York for transmission overseas. The personnel of the local commit- tee which conducted the drive for ‘Washington Jewry’s share of the goal included the following: E. I. Kauf- mann and Isidore Hershfield, co-chair- | men; Paul Himmelfarb, treasurer; | Louis E. Spiegler, campaign director, and Leo Pincus, publicity director. Discussing the recent events in Ger- many, Warburg stated “It is inconceivable that this coun- try should not be swept by a wave of compassion even more powerful | than that which moved American citi- | zens on behalf of the victims of the| World War. The dreadful agony of a whole people should arouse in us an emotional response that would ease their misery through concrete help. I cannot believe that the soul of America is not shaken in to its most profound depths by the unparalleled degradation of fellow-human beings.” | one on Eighth, just below Constitu- | tion avenue.
