A somber exhibit of 250 drawings and poems done by the doomed Jewish children in the Theresierstadt concentration camp in occupied Czechoslovakia was inaugurated here tonight.
Among those attending the inaugural were Chief Rabbi Elio Toaff of Rome, officials of the Rome Jewish Community and the Italian Union of Jewish Communities, Sen. A. Fenaltea, Sen. Feruccio Parri and many other Leaders in Italian public life.
“One would not be able to resist losing all faith in humanity but for the fact that against this evil a resistance arose and won,” Sen. Fenaltea said in an address at the inaugural. The exhibit, which was shown in many towns in northern Italy last year, will be displayed in other cities after the Rome showing.
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.
