The Brooklyn Public Library will place the news reports of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in all of its 14 branches, it was announced today by Abraham M. Lindenbaum, president of the Brooklyn Jewish Community Council which has subscribed for the JTA service to be sent to the library branches.
Public Library officials welcomed the event as an important development in their overall program of public service to the community. The cost of the JTA service was underwritten by Charles Frost, prominent industrialist and philanthropist in tribute to the late Surrogate Maximilian Moss, who pioneered the Brooklyn Jewish Community Council since its inception more than a quarter of a century ago. Judge Moss died last April 19.
