Brith Sholom, American Jewish fraternal organization with national headquarters here, yesterday opened celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of its founding.
Brith Sholom was organized in February, 1905, by a group of forty-four men. Today its members in many parts of the country enjoy fraternal advantages and participate in Jewish communal work. Judge William M. Lewis is president of the order, with Martin O. Levy grand secretary and Jacob Ginsburg treasurer.
Joachim Heinrich Biesenthal, nineteenth century German missionary, received the degree of doctor of theology from the University of Giesen.
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.
