Gloomy prospects for Russian Jews during the coming winter were seen by Latzky-Bertoldi, communal worker and former Minister for Jewish Affairs in the Ukraine.
Mr. Bertoldi stated today that according to reports from reliable sources which came into his possession, hunger and sickness threaten Russian Jewry for the coming winter, exceeding the sufferings of 1922. It is necessary to raise an alarm in time, he stated, so that measures may be taken “to avert the threatening danger.”
