Hundreds of telegraphic inquiries have been received from America and Europe concerning the extent of the suffering experienced by Jews as result of the cyclone.
Many of the telegrams ask whether there are any Jews alive yet.
Ninety percent of the Jewish population in Cuba resides in Havana which was not affected by the cyclone.
The Havana Jewish Community has organized an Emergency Relief body to aid the victims in the provinces. Those who were saved from the cyclone are now in danger of an epidemic.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
