FINANCES The Committee will be interested to learn that during the past year our Committee, as one of the five residuary legatees under the will of Jacob H. Simmons of Syracuse, New York, received a bequest of $799.41. This is the second bequest received by the Committee since its organization, the first one having been made in 1921 by the late Jacob Wertheim who bequeathed to the Committee the sum of $1,000.00 payable in ten annual instalments." A statement of receipts from the various districts follows: The report of the auditor shows that the Committee's income from membership dues was $27,353.63, and from interest on bank balances $138.53, making a total of $27,492.16. Of this amount, $15,623.70 was expended for the maintenance of the Committee's office; $8,500 was contributed to the support of the Bureau of Jewish Social Research; $500 was contributed to the Foreign Language Information Service; and $1,310.50 was expended for special purposes. The total expenses were thus $25,934.20, which amount deducted from the total receipts, leaves a surplus of $1,557.96. |
