Dr. Moses Rosen, Rumania’s chief rabbi, sent Jews around the world Rosh Hashanah greetings yesterday. He declared, “in the year that has gone by, Rumanian Jews worked loyally and diligently for the welfare of Rumania, our country where brotherly relations between religions and ethnic groups prevail. I send you all our traditional blessings of peace, happiness, tranquility of mind and long life. We must remain steadfastly loyal to our Jewish past and to our Jewish traditions.”
In Prague, synagogues were generally full during the Rosh Hashanah holidays although the worshippers were mainly elderly Jews. The younger generation was conspicuous by its absence. The “Jerusalem” Reform Synagogue drew a capacity crowd. The historic Altneu Synagogue had a smaller attendance.
