The Rumanian Government today issued a decree nationalizing the 19 hospitals throughout the country operated by Jewish communities. The decree takes effect immediately.
The law cleared up an unsettled issue remaining from June when the government promulgated legislation confining the jurisdiction of the Jewish communities to purely religious matters. The total bed capacity of the hospitals is 1,329.
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.
