Jewish National Organizations in the United States

Home , Bernhard Nathanson, Brevda, David Lefkowitz, Isaac Landman, Meyer Waxman, Moses Horowitz

JEWISH NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES In the following list information is given respecting those Jewish organizations which have a national scope as distinguished from societies of a local character which are listed in the Directory of Local Jewish Organizations, pp. 330-583. Seventy-six bodies are listed below. Although these organizations vary widely in their functions, they may be classified into ten broad groups. Of course, there are several organizations which, owing to their manifold aims and purposes, could be placed into more than one class, but these were grouped in accordance with their most prominent activity. In the international group are such bodies as the American Jewish Committee, the American Jewish Congress, and the organizations interested in the welfare of the Jews of Roumania; the Zionist organizations have been grouped separately. In the educational class are the Council of Young Men's Hebrew and Kindred Associations, the Intercollegiate Menorah Association, the Jewish Chautauqua Society, and others of a similar character. The three Theological Seminaries and the Dropsie College for Hebrew and Cognate Learning are given separately. As research institutions are classed the American Jewish His- torical Society, the Bureau of Jewish Social Research, and the Jewish Academicians of America. Professional associations include the various rabbinical societies and the National Conference of Jewish Social Service. The Religious Unions include the congregational federations and their national auxiliaries. No explanation of the other groups is necessary. Following is a table showing the number of organizations in each class, the number of branches and of members :

Total 76 35 5,004 49 1,062,412 Several interesting facts are apparent in the foregoing table. Over a million of the Jews of the United States are connected with National Organizations ; over a half million are affiliated with fraternal orders or mutual benefit associations; a quarter of a million help to maintain philanthropic enterprises of national scope; and thirty-five of the organizations report a total of 5004 branches, affiliated bodies, or agencies. The number of these must be taken into account when we consider the number of local organizations. 304 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK

DIRECTORY OF JEWISH LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES INTRODUCTION This Directory is intended to supersede the list published in THE AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK 5668 and all the supplementary lists printed in the sub- sequent issues. Except for New York City, the Directory was mostly compiled from data received from the organizations themselves, in response to questionnaires which were mailed to every organization of which there was any record in the office of the American Jewish Committee. The bulk of these questionnaires were mailed during the year 1918, and. in the main, the facts here recorded are assumed to be correct as of last year, although during the past six months an endeavor has been made to have the information corrected as much as possible without resorting again to the individual organizations for data, but by securing the services of public-spirited and well-informed individuals in each locality. In only a few cases was any personal canvassing done. Wherever possible, advantage was taken of notices of and references to organizations appearing in the general and Jewish Dress. Societies which are known to exist, but which did not respond to repeated requests for information, are indicated by an asterisk; those with respect to which information was secured from authentic though not official sources are indicated by two asterisks. The following abbreviations have been employed : CEM.. for Cemetery. M. B., for Mutual Benefit Society. CG.. for Congregation. PRES.. for President. CHAR., for Charitable or Philanthropic PRIN., for Principal. Society. iSEC. for Secretary. DIR., for Director. SUPT., for Superintendent. Enuc, for Educational Organization. TREAS.. for Treasurer. EXEC, for Executive. ZION., for Zionist Society. Abbreviations are also sometimes used by the organizations themselves in reporting their names. Among these the most common are K. K.. for Kahal Kadosh ; K. TJ. V., for Kranken Untprstiitzungs Vprein : M. B. A., for Mutual Benefit Asso- ciation ; A. C, for Athletic Club; Y. M. B. A. and Y. L. B. A., for Young Men's and Young Ladies' Benevolent Association, respectively. Following the practice of past years, all Hebrew names are given as transliterated by the organizations themselves. The list for New York City is linked entivplv upon the various directories given in The JeiiAsh Communal Register of New York City, issued bv the Kehillah (Jewish Community) of New York City in 1018. Following is a summary of the information respecting the local organizations of that city as recorded in the Register: Total number of organizations 3637 Congregations 858 Schools 69 Recreational and Cultural Agencies ]01 Mutual Aid Societies and other Economic Agencies 2168 Philanthropic and Correctional Agencies 164 Other Organizations 277 With respect to the synagogues in New York City, the following information will be found of interest: Total number of synagogues 1127 Permanent synagogues 784' Temporary synagogues '..,'.'. 343 Permanent synagogues with buildings of their own '" 937 Permanent synagogues without buildings .....' 547 Seating capacity of permanent synagogues ...'.' 017 725 Seating capacity of temporary synagogues '..'.'.' 163638 Language of prayer in permanent synagogues : • • • • . Hebrew 7«o Hebrew and English 36 LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS 331

Language of sermon and public announcements in permanent synagogues: Yiddish 617 English 79 Total membership of permanent synagogues 79,480 Following are several tables exhibiting the main facts respecting local organizations in the United States, outside of New York City. It must be borne in mind that it is not claimed that the information given here is complete; the manner in which the data were collected—almost exclusively through the malls—cannot be expected to yield complete and accurate results. The information is, however, of great value for comparison. The 1843 congregations listed herewith, added to the 1127 reported for New York City, make a total of 2960 for the country. Of the 503 which report the time of service, 243, or almost one-half, hold services on Sabbaths and Festi- vals only; 154, a little over one-third, hold services daily; 51, or about ten per cent, convene only during the Festivals; and about an equal number report hold- ing services irregularly, as fortnightly, or every two months, etc. Of the 829 congregations which report the language employed at service, 496, or nearly sixty per cent, use Hebrew; of these, 19 report the use of Yiddish in sermons or in public announcements. About thirty per cent use both Hebrew and English, and a little less than ten per cent use English exclusively. From Table II it will be seen that only one-fourth of the total number of congregations report a total membership of 48,205, an average of little over one hundred members for each congregation. Assuming that this average obtains throughout the United States, we may infer that the total membership of all the congregations listed in the Directory is about 180,000. This number, added to the membership of the permanent synagogues in New York City, gives us a total of 260,000 for the entire country. In most cases, as is well known, membership in congregations is restricted to heads of families. Assuming that each of the 260,000 members represents a family of only three, we may make the conservative estimate that over three-quarters of a million of the Jewish population of the country are regularly affiliated with congregations. If we take into account, however, those who attend divine services during the High Festivals—in New York City, the number of these is five times the regular membership—we are led to the conclusion that two and one-half million of the three and one-third million Jews of the country, or nearly five out of six, come into direct contact with Jewish religious influences sometime during the year. As regards congregational religious schools, Table II shows that 584 congregations, which report having such schools—a great many which have do not report them—have 2568 classes, most of which meet once weekly, and 48,534 pupils. In attempting to estimate the number of charitable agencies, we must add. to the 907 given in Table III, 164 reported for New York City, making a total of 1071 for the entire country. We must also take into consideration the 14 National Jewish Organizations which have philanthropic functions and which report 576 branches and a total membership of over one-quarter of a million individuals. (Bee DIRECTORY OF JEWISH NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES, pp. 303-329.) Most of the large Jewish communities have charitable federations, and reference to the LIST OP FEDERATED JEWISH CHARITIES IN THE UNITED STATES (pp. 584-586) will show that of the 46 organizations in that list. 41 report an aggregate income, in 1918, of $6,325,661.69. Unfortunately, sufficient data on which to base an estimate of the income of non-federated agencies are not available. To the 566 educational agencies given in Table III, 170 must be added for New York City, making a total of 736: six national organizations with educational objects report 434 branches, and 5 of them report an aggregate membership of 30,318. To the 177 Mutual Benefit Societies listed in the same table must be added 1016 reported for New York City, and the 2421 branches of 11 out of the 15 national fraternal orders whose aggregate membership is over half a million individuals. To the 214 clubs listed we must add 15 reported for New York Citv The number of cemeteries given is misleading, because, in some instance's' congregations which have merely a plot in a larger cemetery report the pos- session of a cemetery of their own. The number given, however, cannot be verv far from the truth, as it is an average of only ten Jewish cemeteries for each state of the Union. New York City reports fifteen Jewish cemeteries. 332 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK TABLE I TIME OP SERVICE AND LANGUAGE EMPLOYED IN SYNAGOGUES, BY STATES
