A memorial meeting honoring the late Charles H. Jordan, executive vice-president of the Joint Distribution Committee, who met his death in Prague last month, will be held Sunday, Sept. 17, at 2:30 P.M. at Carnegie Hall. Louis Broido, chairman of JDC, said the meeting would be open to the public.
Mr. Jordan disappeared on Aug. 16 after leaving his Prague hotel room to buy an American newspaper. His body was found in the Vltava River four days later. The State Department and Jewish organizations have been urging the Czechoslovak Government to continue investigation of the circumstances of Mr. Jordan’s death until the full facts are revealed.
