The debt of civilization to the Jewish people was stressed in a New Year’s message from Brazilian President Joao Cafe Filho to the Jewish community of Brazil.

In his message, released through the Confederation of Jewish Communities of Brazil, the President called upon the Jews of Brazil “to continue to make to my country their contribution of creative intelligence, of their spirit of organization and tenacity, of their initiative and of their fertile spiritual and material labor.”
