The Surinam Committee for Jewish Affairs has sent 16,360 guilders to Queen Wilhelmina in London to aid the Netherlands war effort, according to a dispatch from Paramaribo reported to the Office of War Information from official Netherlands sources.
The drive to raise funds was launched at a rally protesting the German deportation of Jews from Holland, the dispatch said.
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.
