The annual report of the Permanent Committee of the Ashkenazi Congregation in Holland recommended today the dissolution of nine of the 54 Ashkenazi communities in Holland because they lacked enough Jews for a minyan. The report said that the communities now had only 15,701 members, including 10,214 in Amsterdam, 1,722 in The Hague and 871 in Rotterdam.
