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.
