(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
Emphatic denial of rumors published in the semi-official press in Prague, Czechoslovakia, alleging that anti-Jewish peasant outbreaks had occurred in Crimea, was contained in a telegraphic message received here by the Joint Distribution Committee office from Dr. Joseph Rosen, head of the Agro-Joint.
Dr. Rosen stated that the reports concerning the alleged outbreaks in Crimea and Kuban had no foundation and that complete harmony prevails between the peasants and the Jewish colonists.
