The text discusses the fear that many volunteers have of working in ghetto areas, and how this has led to a decline in the number of volunteers for community projects. Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson was given a crime prevention kit yesterday, and was advised not to avoid jury duty. The final day of the NCJW's three-day workshop was highlighted by speeches from education commissioner R. McClanahan, senator Wayne Morse, and Laura Fox from WICS.
