The first Jewish center in Panama has been apered here as a result of joint efforts by all Jewish groups and prominent Panamian intellectuals. A religious school will shortly be opened in the center. Recreational and social facilities are available in the modern $30,500 structure. To mark the opening of the center, the “Beneficencia Israelita de Panama” issued a journal in Yiddish end Spanish, which was the first Yiddish publication to appear here.
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.
