"Tims DIRECTORY is one of a series compiled annually by the Council of Jewish J- Federations and Welfare Funds. It includes over 600 communities, virtually all of which are affiliated with the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds, their national association for sharing of common services, interchange of experience, and joint consultation and action. This number compares with 305 communities in the 1943 directory, and reflects the development of Jewish communal organiza- tion in America. These communities comprise at least 95 per cent of the Jewish population of the United States and about 90 per cent of the Jewish population of Canada. Listed for each community is the local central agency—federation, welfare fund, or com- munity council—with its address and the names of the president and executive director. The names "federation," "welfare fund," and "Jewish community council" are not definitive and their structures and functions vary from city to city. What is called a federation in one city, for example, may be called a community council in another. In the main these central agencies have responsibility for some or all of the following functions: (a) raising of funds for local, national, and overseas serv- ices; (b) allocation and distribution of funds for these purposes; (c) coordination and central planning of local services, such as family welfare, child care, health, recrea- tion, community relations within the Jewish community and with the general com- munity, Jewish education, care of the aged, and vocational guidance, eliminating duplication and filling in gaps in service; (d) in small and some intermediate cities, direct administration of local social services. In the directory, the following symbols are used: (*) Member agency of the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds. (2) Receives support from Community Chest.
