A new Yiddish-language weekly newspaper Der Moment appeared here today to present the views of the newly established “Action Committee for Democratic Defense” (C.A.D.) composed of Jews and non-Jews, which urges adoption of the new French constitution proposed by General Charles de Gaulle.
The organization is also issuing a Jewish information bulletin, in French, three times a week.
Prominent in the organization are Marc Goutkin, general secretary of the French-Jewish War Veterans Association; Elie Soffer, secretary of the French Resistance group, “Companions of November 8th,” and Gen. Edmond Laurent, a leading figure in the France-Israel Association headed by Jacques Soustelle, Minister of Information.
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.
