The institution is supported by vol- untary contributions, and while it is under the jurisdiction of the Galician Verband, patients are admitted to the hospital irrespective of race, creed or color. During its short period of existence the hospital has treated in the wards 2,869 cases, representing all nationali- ties. The Har Moriah Hospital Dispensary, which is open daily, except Sundays and holidays, has treated 50,652 cases. In addition, 1 2,043 emergency or accident cases have been treated, making a grand total of 54,764 persons who have received medical attention in the Har Moriah Hospital and Dispensary. The hospital also maintains a Training School for Nurses, chartered by the State Board of Education. The school is non-sectarian, but most of the young women in training are of the Jewish faith. The hospital is thoroughly equipped with all the modern appliances, including Ex-Ray apparatus.

Introductory Note* In offering this Directory to the Jews of New York, The Jew- ish Community (Kehillah) aims to supply a real need, a need that has been evidenced by the interest in the work displayed not only by the professional social worker, but also by Jews of all classes and professions. It is hardly necessary to emphasize the practical value of such a guide-book, for besides enabling one to come into speedy touch with any Jewish organization in Greater New York in which he may be interested, it also presents in the most comprehensive and conclusive manner all the organized forces of the greatest Jew- ish community of the world. And from the latter circumstance, this guide-book, it is hoped, will be found to possess a moral value also, for by revealing to the Jew his own organized strength, it will spur him on to greater and more perfect achievement in this field. The scheme of classification that has been adopted is very simple, and by a mere reference to the table of contents, the reader will be quickly guided to the organization he is seeking. It is assumed — and it is certainly a safe assumption to make — that one who is looking for any particular organization knows in advance whether that organization is a congregation, a lodge, a charitable society, an educational society, or a mutual benefit society. Organizations de- voted to more than one kind of work are mentioned under as many headings as they may properly come under. Lodges of the Fraternal Orders, and societies affiliated with the local Federations are men- tioned under their respective central organizations. The only divi- sion that has received detailed sub-classification is the class of charit- able organizations, and in order to facilitate the finding of any such organization an alphabetical index to charitable and philanthropic organizations has been appended at the end. The detailed treatment of charitable organizations will enable the reader to locate quickly an organization engaged in the particular form of relief work in which he may be interested. No pretensions are here advanced that this Directory will be found to be entirely complete, for as in the case of most undertakings JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 2 it takes two parties to complete a directory: The compilers and the organizations. The first party, the compilers, have made every effort to make this directory complete, but the organizations have not al- ways responded with the necessary information. Organizations that did not supply complete information are distinguished by an as- terisk (*) placed before the name. In the case of congregations and mutual benefit societies, however, the number of those who did not respond is so large that the asterisk has been dispensed with. It should be kept in mind, moreover, that this is the first edition of this directory and the assurance can be safely made that with the experi- ence and knowledge gained from the preparation of the present edi- tion, the subsequent ones will be enlarged and perfected, for it is hoped that with the recognition and support of the Jewish organiza- tions of New York, this directory will be issued annually and will thus be made a permanent institution of our community. Meanwhile we want to extend our thanks to all those who as- sisted us in the gathering of such material as we have been able to procure. Our appreciation should also be expressed to the institu- tions and business houses that have patronized our advertising pages. Acknowledgment should be made of the valuable services rendered by Mr. Israel Goldberg in compiling the Directory. This organiza- tion also wishes to extend its thanks to Doctor Joseph Jacobs for his statistical study of the Jewish population of New York, which will be welcomed by all those who are interested, as an important contribu- tion to the subject. THE JEWISH COMMUNITY (KEHILLAH). Jewish Population of New York A STATISTICAL STUDY BY JOSEPH JACOBS. I. In the year 1902 I startled the Jewish World — not the oecumenical assemblage of all Israel but the East Side daily of that name, the English page of which I was then editing — by announcing that New York held 600,000 Jews. This was about twice as much as was thought at the time, the "American-Jewish Year-Book" for that year giving only 400,000 for the whole state, including Rochester, Syracuse, Troy, Elmira, Buf- falo, Albany, as well as New York. Yet my estimate was quite conserva- tive, being based (for the first time) on the number of deaths and mar- riages and confirmed by the reports of the number of Jewish immigrants reaching and remaining in this port, which have been kept up for so many years by the United Hebrew Charities. My estimate has formed the basis of all assertions as to the number of Jews in this great city since that time but, whereas previously the tendency was to under-rate the Jewish population of New York, of recent years an opposite tendency has been shown, and it is not unusual to hear of their number being placed at a million or more. It seemed, therefore, worth while to re-investigate the subject on the lines of my previous inquiries of 1902 and to attempt once more to determine from first principles the number of Jews now living in New York. In my inquiries I have been aided by many gentlemen, among whom I should mention Dr. Guilfoy of the Board of Health, Mr. Israel Goldberg, the compiler of the lists of organizations in this Directory; Mr. I. Irving Lipschitz, of the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society, and Mr. B. G. Richards, the ever-ready Secretary of the Jewish Com- munity. As on the preceding occasion, the basis of my investigations is the number of Jewish burials. I have been supplied by the Board of Health with the number of interments in each of the Jewish burial grounds sur- rounding New York between the years 1901-1910 (see Appendix A). These range from 7,875 in 1901 to 10,918 in 1910. The increase of 38.4 per cent, probably indicates an even greater increase in the population since the general death rate of the city has gone down in that time from 4 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. 20 to 16 per thousand, while the general social condition of the Jewish population has undoubtedly risen, on the whole, during the decade. At the death rate of 14 per thousand, which I fixed upon for various good reasons, the Jews of New York in 1901 would have numbered 565,000. The number of burials in 1910 was 10,918, as before mentioned, but there has to be added between 75 and 100 buried in the undenomina- tional Cypress Hills cemetery, and 26 buried in Mount Hope cemetery, Westchester County, the burial ground of the congregation Temple Israel. Adding these we get a total of, roughly speaking, 11,000 for 1910. If we may assume that the death rate has decreased to 13.5 per thousand, this would give an average Jewish population through the year 1910 of 820,000, an increase of, roughly speaking, 42 per cent, over the num- bers for 1901. I should, perhaps, add here that throughout this study round numbers indicate estimates, definite numbers have actually been counted. It will be observed that while the death rate of the city in general has run down from twenty to sixteen per thousand, I have assumed that the Jewish death rate has only decreased from 14 to 13.5. I do this on the grounds which led me to assume a much lower death rate in 1901 for Jews than for the general population. They have a larger propor- tion of "viable" lives between 15 and 4."), as can be seen from Appendix D, and besides this the death rate of infants under 5 is smaller among Jews than among the general population. There was, therefore, less opportunity for decrease in the death rate in these two directions than in the general population of the city. It has been pointed out to me that a certain number of Jewish burials take place in non-Jewish cemeteries, and even in Potter's Field, but these numbers cannot, by the nature of the case, be ascertained, and are not likely to be large enough to affect our general result. Jews that are buried in Christian cemeteries can scarcely be considered Jews. It is, however, noteworthy that not- withstanding the large increase by immigation and excess of births, Jew- ish burials have remained stationary during the past five years. This might be due either to a continuous decrease in the death-rate or, as is more probable, to large migrations from the city. We may get a rough check on the above figures by comparing the movement of the Jewish marriages during the same period, which rose from 5,062 in 1901 to 8,332 in 1910, an increase of no less than 65 per cent., indicating, probably, greater accuracy in the enumeration of these marriages as well as the improved social condition of the Jews of New York. The general marriage rate of the city for 1910 was &.66 per thou- JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. 5 sand. Applying this figure to the number of Jewish marriages this would indicate a Jewish population in that year of 860,000. But there is a larger proportion of the Jewesses in a nub-le condition than of the young women in the general population though this is counterbalanced by the fact that there is a much larger proportion of males to females in the Jewish population who are perforce bachelors. I do not think, therefore, we can make the Jewish marriage rate much higher than 10 per thousand, which would give a population in 1910 of 833,200, a sufficiently near ap- proximation to the number arrived at by the death rate, considering the hypothetical character of our chief data. We may come to the con- clusion, therefore, that on July 1, 1910, the middle of the year, there were in New York about 825,000 Jews ; but between July 1, 1910, to June 30, 1911, 68,276 Jews arrived at the port of New York, of whom probably 70 per cent., 47,500, remained in the city. In addition to this the excess of births -over deaths during that period would be about It per thousand, which would add 9,900 to the number, so that by July 1st of this year the Jews of New York would consist of the following: Estimated population, July 1, 1910 825,000 Jewish immigrants remaining in New York July 1, 1910, to June 30, 1911 47,500 Excess of births over deaths, ditto, ditto 9,900 Total •. 882,400 But since July 1, 1911, 35,896 Jewish immigrants landed at the Port of New York, of whom 10,140 left the city immediately, leaving a balance of 25,756 remaining here, in addition to which the excess of births over that of deaths during those six months would be at least 5,000 souls. Allowing for removals, departures and migrations dur- ing the same period, a net increase of 24,000 may be assumed, bring- ing the Jewish population of Greater New York on January 1, 1912, up to 906,400. It is probable that the smaller number reached by this method is due to the fact that in the list of United Hebrew Charities subscrib- ers the above ten names bulk more largely than they would in a longer list which would do more justice to the Russian element in the Jewish population. This conclusion is confirmed by the just is- sued list of members of the Jewish Communal Institutions which con- tains 25,000 names, in which the above ten names number only 1,465, or 5.86 per cent, of the total. In a still larger list, like that included 6 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. in Trow's Directory, these names will probably not constitute more than 5 per cent. But applying the percentage derived from the list of the Jewish Communal Institutions the number of Jews in Man- hattan would work out at 620,000 and those of Brooklyn about 240,- 000, or 860,000 in all. This approximates closely to the results already reached by considering the deaths and marriages, considering that these directories were probably compiled at the end of 1910. It is, however, probable that the distribution of the Jewish population in the Boroughs is inadequately represented by this treatment, and we may perhaps get nearer by applying the same method to the tele- phone book. II. The remarkable thing about this result is not that it is so large but that it is, comparatively speaking, so small. It was estimated in 1877 that the Jews of New York numbered 80,000. Between the years 1881 to 1884, 74,310 Jews reached the United States, of whom at least 60,000 came to New York. From 1885 to 1899, 417,010 reached New York. From 1900 to June 30, 1911, 895,179 landed at the port of New York, making a total of 1,372,189 who were added by immigration to the orig- inal 60,000 Jews reckoned to be in New York in 1877. But not all those who landed at New York remained there. Of the 826,558 arriving in New York during the twenty years between 1885 and 1905 no less than 227,523 left immediately^ a proportion of 26.4. Applying this proportion throughout the whole period this would allow for about 350,000 leaving New York at once. But, besides this, a certain number are deported, mainly from New York ; thus, during the eleven years between 1900 and 1910, 10,140 were thus deported — about 1 per cent, of the total Jewish immigration to the United States during that period. Besides this, a certain number of those arriving here had already been in the United States before and should, of course, not be counted as additions to the population. Thus, between the years 1900 and 1908, 19,365, of the total immigration were of this category out of 895,216, or about 2 per cent. Further, a certain number of Jewish immigrantt returned to their own countries in the three years, 1908-1910, 19,494 out of 245,198, or about 8 per cent. An objection might be raised to my reckoning so large a percentage of returns to Europe based on the experience of the last three years, as applied to the whole of the Jewish immigration. But it is notorious JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. 7 that the returns are mainly from the port of New York, so that the percentage for that city would be even higher than 8 per cent, for the past three years, during which alone this item has been given by the Commissioner-General of Immigration in his report. But it is well known that a considerable current backwards across the Atlantic has existed previously. Medical inquirers have drawn attention to the nostalgia of Russian Jews for their inhospitable native country. The numbers noted as having been in the United States before is a corroDoraiion of this assumption. Thus about 11 per cent, of the total immigration may be described as "deported and departed or here before." This percentage would remove another 150,000 from the Jewish additions to New York, re- ducing them to 882,189. But, further, the Industrial Removal Office has removed from New York, during the years 1900-1910, no less than 49,- 574, leaving a grar»d total of Jews added to New" York since 1877 at 832,615, or, with the 60,000 that were already there, the total number of Jews in New York would be 892,615 — nearly the same number that we reached from the deaths and marriages. But this is assuming that there has been no natural increase of the population during these 35 years, which is more absurd than any of Euclid's conclusions. It is rather difficult to give any plausible estimate of this natural increase with such a rapidly changing population as the Jewish dwellers in New York. The usual method of reckoning intercensal increase is by multiplying the geometrical mean of the two census numbers by the average excess of the births over deaths. (A. C. Waters, Jour. R. Stat. Soc. 1901.) This would only apply to a population normally increasing by excess of births over deaths, and not one like that of New York, where the accessions by immigration each year are probably six times as much as those by excess births. Yet it would be extremely interesting to ascertain this natural increase since, as we have seen above, the num- ber of those who have voluntarily left the city must equal this increase, or otherwise the original population plus the immigrants remaining here would not practically equal the present population, as estimated from the deaths and marriages. We may get some light upon this point by estimating the number of marriages throughout the period. There were 75,180 Jewish marriages in the decade 1901-1910. There must, therefore, have been at least 100,000 marriages since the beginning of the period we are investigating, in 1877, Statisticians reckon the fecundity of each marriage by dividing 8 J JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. the birth rate by the marriage rate. In earlier Jewish marriages this used to work out at about 4.5 children per marriage. (Jacobs. Studies in Jewish Statistics, p. xiii.) In New York at present, as can be seen from Appendix B, the average fecundity of marriage is 2.7. Owing to the larger proportion of persons of marriageable age in the Jewish population, their fecundity is doubtless above the average of the city. Consequently, there have been at least 320,000 Jewish children born in New York between 1877 and 1911, but of these 50,000 would be removed by death, while of the original immigrants who had remained in New York at least 90,000 would have died in the thirty-four years. This would allow for a natural increase of 180,000 during that period, which would have been counterbalanced by the emigration of at least 150,000 from the city. This figure does not seem at all unlikely, being only an average of 5,000 a year throughout the period. We are thus enabled to draw up a balance sheet of the Jewish population of New York since the year 1877 as follows : Original Jewish population of New York, 1877 60,000 Arrived at port of New York, > 1881-1911 1,372,189 Excess of Births over Deaths, 1877-1911 180,000 1,612,189 Left city at once, 1881-1911 350,000 Deported, 1881-1911 14,000 Departed, 1881-1911 112,000 Migrated, 1881-1911 150,000 In U. S. before 1881-1911 , 28,000 Removed by Industrial Removal, 1901-1910 50,000 704,000 Balance, December, 1911 908,189 This result is sufificiently near our previous estimate, founded on the number of deaths and marriages, to warrant a certain amount of confi- dence in the estimate. It will also enable us to get some idea of the proportion of Jews of New York that are natives of the United States, as compared with those that are foreign born. Of the 826,558 immigrants that arrived at the port between 1885 and 1905, 342,390 were adult males, 220,847 were adult females, the remaining 262,890 being children. The large excess of adult males over females (half as many again) should, one would have thought, have resulted in a large amount of intermarriages. But of this Immigrant 1881-1911 Total 660,000 720,000 100,000 140,000 240,000 " 320,000 140,000 180,000 800,000 900,000 180,000 270,000 JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. 9 there is very little evidence, and it is probable that a large proportion of those returning voluntarily abroad and of those who left the city were young bachelors, leaving an exceptionally large proportion of nubile young women in the city. This would account for the very high mar- riage rate, as is shown by the fact that over 75,000 Jewish marriages have been reported in the ten years 1901-1910. With the above assumptions it is possible to draw up the following estimate of the "movement" of the Jewish population of New York dur- ing the last 35 years as divided between the different sections of the population. Native 1877 Nos. enumerated ..." 60,000 Deaths 40,000 Births 80,000 Increase 40,000 Total, 1911 100,000 Born in U. S 90,000 According to this 10 per cent, of the Jews of New York at present are native born of native parents (as against 19.3 per cent, of the population in general), while another 20 per cent, are native born of foreign parent- age, making a total of 30 per cent, born in America, or nearly 300,000 out of the 900,000. It is even possible lo arrive at some conclusions as to the origin of the foreign parents since the United Hebrew Charities has recorded the nationality of those arriving at this port during the years 1884-1905 in the following percentages : Numbers. Per Cent. Russians 551,708 67.94 Austrians 192,509 23.70 Roumanians 43,757 5.38 Germans 16,619 2.04 English 3,603 .44 Turks 2,074 .25 Dutch 499 .06 French 451 .05 Swedes 421 .05 Danes 261 .03 10 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. Roughly speaking, Russians are two-thirds, Austrians one-quarter, and Roumanians one-twentieth of the immigrants; or, of the whole Jewish population, Russians are five-ninths, and Austrians two-ninths. III. There is still another method by which one could get roughly — but very roughly, for reasons for which we will shortly see — the number of Jews at present residing in New York. I call this the "Cohen method," because, popularly speaking, it consists in finding the number of persons with the name Cohen, or other distinctively Jewish names in a purely Jewish list and then from this deducing the number of Jewish names in general lists of the inhabitants of New York like Trow's Di- rectory or the Telephone Book. This is to proceed by a process known technically among statisticians as "sampling" and is liable to all the imperfections to which that method is subject. In deducing from a few samples conclusions as to the totals from which they are drawn the errors in which one is likely to fall are increased in proportion to the fewness of the samples. Yet, as will be seen, this method enables us to come to some conclusions as to the distribution of the Jewish population of New York throughout the different boroughs, which is supplied by no other means, and for that purpose it may be worth while applying it to some extent. The first requirement was to get a comparatively long and representa- tive list of Jewish names ; this was given by the latest report of the United Hebrew Charities, which contains 4,498 names, a by no means satisfactory showing out of 180,000 families. But it is probably as rep- resentative a list of all the sections of the community as could be found and will therefore serve our purposes best. The ten names most numer- ously represented in this list are: Cohen 44 Weil 25 Levy 64 Rothschild 24 Stern 33 Seligman 24 Frank 29 Strauss 23 Rosenthal 26 Sachs 22 These make 314 in all, or 7 per cent. Now, if we count up in num- bers the same names in Trow's Directory for Manhattan we get 6,906 names (see Appendix C), which would seem to imply that there arc JEWISH POPULATION OF NEW YORK. H nearly 100,000 Jewish names in this directory. As this contains in all 556,160 names this would seem to imply that there are 18.7 per cent, of Jews in Manhattan and The Bronx, or, according to the latest census 528,462. Applying the same method to Upington's Directory of Brook- lyn and Queens the 1,368 Jewish names would appear to imply 10 per cent, of Jews, or approximately 200,000. At first sight this seems to give a much smaller total Jewish popu- lation for New York than we have reached by the deaths and marriages, and at the same time is opposed to general impressions as to the rela- tive proportions of Jews dwelling in Manhattan and Brooklyn. But what these figures signify is rather the much larger proportion of lodg- ers and moving population among the Jews of Manhattan as compared with those of Brooklyn, and on the other hand the larger proportion of persons having separate homes of their own among the Jews of Brook- lyn as compared with the general population of that Borough. If, therefore, we turn to the telephone book and apply the same method there to its three sections, Manhattan and The Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens, and Richmond, we may, at any rate, get some further in- formation as to the relative distribution of the Jewish population of New York in these three sections. It may clearly be assumed that the proportion of persons in sufficiently easy circumstances to have a tele- phone is the same in the five boroughs and that the number of those residing in them are proportional to those using telephones. Applying our "Cohen Method" to the telephone book we get the result that in Manhattan and The Bronx 2,258 of the ten most popular Jewish names are represented in that portion of the book, 561 in Brooklyn and Queens, and only 16 in Richmond. If we apply the same 7 percentage to the names in the telephone book as we found to exist in the report of the United Hebrew Charities there should be, for ex- ample, a little over 200 Jewish telephone subscribers among the telephone subscribers in Richmond, about 8,000 names in Brooklyn, and about 30,000 names in Manhattan and The Bronx, one-sixth of the whole, 180,000. Of the 38,000 Jewish telephone subscribers there are thus about 80 per cent, of the Jews of New York in Manhattan and The Bronx, 19.5 per cent, in Brooklyn, and J^ of 1 per cent, in Staten Island. Ac- cording to this, we could divide up the 900,000 Jews in New York into the following three sections : Manhattan and The Bronx 720,000 Brooklyn and Queens 175,500 Staten Island , , 4,500 12 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. These results are necessarily rough but they, at any rate, coincide with general impressions and connot be so very far off the reality. It would, of course, be possible to make a much closer analysis of the figures given by the directories. Taking, for example, the 7,000 addresses attached to the ten most popular Jewish names in Trow's Di- rectory for Manhattan it would be comparatively easy to find how many were situated east of Broadway and below Fourteenth Street, constituting the Lower East Side, east of Madison Avenue and between Eighty-sixth and 125th Streets, which may be described as the Upper East Side, between Fifty-ninth and Eighty-sixth Streets on the East Side, and University Heights on the West Side, constituting the "silk stocking dis- tricts" of New York Jewry, and finally the regions north of 125th Street, giving ihe Jewish inhabitants of The Bronx. A similar division could be made of the ten most popular Jewish names in Upington's Directory for Brooklyn, which would divide up the Jewish population of that borough into Brooklyn proper, Brownsville, Bath Beach and Queens. But the results reached from the examination of what is only, after all, 1 per cent, of the Jewish population would be so precarious that it scarcely seems worth while undertaking the trouble. I have now put before the reader most of the information I have been able to collect as to the Jewish population of New York at the beginning of 1912 and feel some confidence that my estimate of 900,000 is not more than 1 or 2 per cent, from the truth, giving a leeway of about 40,000 or 20,000 on either side of the 900,000. The figures coming from so many sources hang together so well that it is unlikely that they can be concentrated on any number far removed. If we assume a larger number the death rate would be too small ; if we assume one much smaller the marriage rate would be too high. We may, there- fore, assume, with some confidence, that the Jews of New York at the present moment are above 900,000 souls, of whom 725,000 are upon the Island of Manhattan. Half a million are directly or indirectly Russian, 200,000 Austrian, mainly from Galicia. Thirty per cent, are native born, and of these again a third, or ten per cent, of the whole, are, in the language of the census, "native born of native parents."

Modeled in a measure after the Kehillahs, or Jewish Communi- ties, of the old world, and designed as the central, authoritative, and representative body of the Jews in New York, the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of New York City was organized at a constituent conven- tion of delegates representing five hundred (500) organizations, held in February, 1909. The need of such a central organization had long been felt, and several movements had previously been started looking towards the creation of such a body. Among the societies which responded to the call to the preliminary convention, issued on February 10, 1909, were not only large institutions and leading con- Tegations of the uptown section of the city, but also small lodges md chevras of the downtown district. Much enthusiasm prevailed at his, as at the subsequent conventions of the delegates. The Constitution adopted declared that "The purpose of the Jewish Community of New York City shall be to further the cause of Judaism in New York City, and to represent the Jews of this city with respect to all local matters of Jewish interest." It was further declared that "This organization shall not engage in any propa- ganda of a partisan political nature, or interfere with the autonomy of its constituent organizations." The Constitution then provided for membership in the Kehillah of the different organizations in New York, through their delegates, the number of individual members of each constituent body deciding the number of delegates to be sent to the Kehillah. The Constitution also determined the relations between the Jew- ish Community and the American Jewish Committee, and the twenty- five members elected by the Jewish Community as its Executive Committee, forms District No. XII, of the American Jewish Commit- tee, the American Jewish Committee having exclusive jurisdiction over all questions affecting the Jews generally, not merely of a local character, while to the Jewish Community was left the jurisdiction over all questions of a local character. Each constituent organization of the Kehillah was required to pay dues of five dollars ($5) per annum per delegate. PURPOSES OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY 137 (KEHILLAH). An Advisory Council of seventy (70) members was created, "which shall aid the Executive Committee with its advice and co- operation" in carrying out the work of the Kehillah. At the first meeting of the Executive Committee, which was held on April 17, 1909, three standing committees were created — the Committee on Religious Organization, the Committee on Education, and the Com- mittee on Social and Philanthropic Work. RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION: This Committee, or department of work, of the Kehillah has endeavored to restore to the Rabbis their proper authority in mat- ters of ritual and observance, to the end that proper supervision be provided in all matters requiring Rabbinical supervision, and that abuses pertaining to kashruth and other observances be eliminated. This committee has also devoted its attention to the matter of hav- ing the Jewish dietary laws observed in Jewish institutions, and encouraging the proper observance of the Sabbath and Jewish holi- days, of amicably settling disputes in regard to religious matters which arise in Jewish societies and congregations, etc. The We- most orthodox Rabbis of New York have, under the auspices oi the Kehillah, organized a Board of Rabbis, or Vaad Horabbonim, and this Board is now devoting itself to the problem of eliminating the abuses which are alleged to prevail in regard to the retail sale of kosher meat. One of the preliminary steps taken in that direction was the investigation of all the Jewish butcher shops in New York City. The Vaad Haborarim or Conciliation Committee of this Board devotes itself to the settlement of disputes such as were mentioned above, while other committees devote themselves to questions of a character that come within the jurisdiction of the Rabbis. JEWISH EDUCATION: The Kehillah, from the first, gave much attention to the problem of the Jewish education of Jewish children, and, in the winter of 1910, a preliminary investigation was made of all the Talmud Torahs, Religious Schools, and Chedarim of Greater New York. This investi- gation disclosed the fact that out of one hundred and seventy thou- sand Jewish children attending the Public Schools, one hundred and twenty thousand were left without any religious instruction. Through the munificence of Mr. Jacob H. SchiflF and the New York Founda- 138 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIBECTORY. tion, the Bureau of Education of the Kehillah was organized, and Doctor S. Benderly, of Baltimore, was appointed Director of this Bureau. The objects of the Bureau were outlined as follows: 1. To study sympathetically and at close range all the Jewish educational forces in JNew \ ork City, including aline tiiose tLat re- strict themselves to religious instruction and those that look primarily to the Americanization of our youth, with a view to co-operation and the elimination of waste and overlapping. 2. To become intimately acquainted with the best teachers and workers who are the mainstay of these institutions, and organize them for both their material and their spiritual advancement. 3. To make propaganda through the Jewish press and other- wise, in order to acquaint parents witli tiie problem belore them and with the means for solving it. J* To operate one or two model schools for elementary pupils, for re purpose of working out the various phases of primary edu- catioJ, these schools to act also as concrete examples and guides to now existing Hebrew schools, which will undoubtedly avail them- selves of the text books, methods, appliances, etc., worked out in the model schools, as soon as public opinion shall have ripened. The Bureau has made a remarkable record during the first year of its activities, and a complete report of this work will be pre- sented at the third annual Convention of the Kehillah, which will be held on February 24 and 25. The success which the Bureau has achieved testifies to the need which has long existed for this work. In order to introduce system into the schools, and to set up a uniform standard of religious education, the Bureau is preparing a series of text books and other literature for the use of Jewish schools. Realizing that the schools must have a sound financial basis, a good staff of teachers, and proper school organization to procure the desired results, the Bureau is endeavoring to establish a Jewish Education Fund, calculated to bring in from subscriptions about three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) per annum by the end of ten years and thereafter. Towards this the sum of almost $50,000 per annum has already been raised. PURPOSES OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITY 139 (KEHILLAH). In addition to the attempt to standardize whatever existing schools are ripe tor standardization, and to nelp estabusu new scnoois particularly in the sections wnere none exist, tue bureau nas estab- lished a Board of License, consisting of hve examiners, representing the various educational institutions of iNJew ^ orK, co-operating witn the bureau, tor tne purpose ot issuing temporary certmcates or per- manent license to tnose teachers qualined lor tne work. A careiul study ot the unances oi tne most important Jewish schools of J.\ew l ork has been issued by tue liureau under tue title, "A burvey ot tne i^inancial btaius ol tne jewisii Keagious bcuoois of ^ew 1 ork," and tue results ol an exnaustive educational study will appear in a publication winch is now in press, and wmch will be Known as "A briet Keport of liiirty-one <>^onierences neld by tue iainiud ioran ir^rincipals in Conjunction with tiie bureau of Jiducation." in connection with its other educational work, the Kehillah has arranged two series of lectures on pubac queotious, and uas given Its auention to tue matter ot brin^iug Jewisu students in the Col- leges aucl Universities ol tue city under tne influence ot Jewish teacuings. SOCIAL AND PHILANTHROPIC WORK: Through this department the Kehillah has given attention to the social wehare ot the Jewish population of New VorK, and has endeavored to bring about co-ordination between the various philan- turopic agencies wuich are coping with the problem of Jewish de- pendents and defectives. An Employment Bureau for Handicapped Jews has been estab- lished and conducted with the co-operation of the United Hebrew Charities and the Jewish Protectory and Prisoners' Aid Society, and through this Bureau work has been found for considerable numbers of persons who are either handicapped physically, or who, through lack of knowledge of the language or of the country or through other circumstances, were incapable of finding work. Particular attention l.as been given to the matter of homeless children wi o Lave been housed in non-Jewish institutions, and a considerable number of them have, through the help of tiie Com- mittee, been transierred to Jewish institutions. Investigations have been made in rej^ard to the proposed formation of new institutions with a view of discouraging any duplication of work. 140 JEWISH COMMUNAL DIRECTORY. OTHER ACTIVITIES: In making its plans for the furtherance of Judaism and Jewish interests in this city, the Kehillah has endeavored, first, to ascertain the facts in regard to the life of the Jewish population of this me- tropolis, and with this end in view, a number of investigations were made. It is hoped that ultimately there will be established a Statis- tical Bureau which will gather and have at its command all the facts and figures pertaining to our communal life, and information in regard to the various religious, educational, and philanthropic activities of the Jews of New York. As a step in the direction of gathering this important data, the present Directory is issued. Many requests for information in regard to Jewish institutions and Jewish communal activities of New York come to the office of the Kehillah daily, and these have shown the need of accumulating and sysic;..ati/!.I.ig all the data covering our communal life. To the office of the Kehillah are also sent various questions of dispute which arise in Jewish organizations, and persons who are confronted with various difficulties come to us for advice and assistance. We have become a sort of clearing house, directing many Jews to various institutions and agencies, the existence of which was not known to them. ^ Index to Charitable Agencies Page.

Upon the 'payment of monthly dues, which although sufficient to meet the requirements of the Order, are really insignificant, a member is insured in the sum of One Thousand Dollars or Five Hundred Dollars, and can also participate in the Sick Benefit Fund, which entitles him to certain weekly payments whenever illness incapacitates him from following his usual vocation. The phrase "As solid as the rock of Gibraltar" has frequently been brought into requisition, but never more deservedly than in the case of the Free Sons of Isreal, which since its inception has expended thousands upon charity, paid out $5,989,000 in death claims, never tock advantage of any technicality to evade a payment and stands to-day with a reserve fund of $1,090,000.

Grand Secretary- THE ORDER BRITH ABRAHAM was instituted and received its charter from the State of New York on the 12th day of June, 1859. Fifty-three years have passed since this fraternity was called into being and we have labored with pride and earnest efforts, diligent endeavor and active work in the cause for which the Order Brith Abraham was founded, that has resulted in enriching the country with a chain of four hundred Lodges, crowned with the precious jewels of HARMONY, WISDOM and JUSTICE, which have served to strengthen the bonds of the common brotherhood and to promote the principles of Charity, Benevolence and Humanity. This Order has paid out nearly eight millions of dollars to widows and orphans. We have also paid out through our Lodge system, sick benefits, funeral expenses and relief to the needy and iin fortu- nate members nearly four millions of dollars. Our Order, with its splendid Lodge system all over the country, has been and is a blessing to the Jewish people and through it they learned the language of the country; they have become Americanized and acquainted with the new conditions and customs that confronted them; in short, the Lodge Room became a school for its members, fitting them for their duties as American citizens and helping them in their every day life. This Order solicits Jews all over the country either to affiliate as members into our Lodges or to come in as a body, under a new charter. All applications for a new charter for a Lodge, or any informa- tion regarding the Order, should be addressed to GEO. W. LEISERSOHN, SAMUEL DORF, Grand Secretary, Grand Master. 266 Grand Street, City.
