–An annual subvention of 1,200,000 drachmas for the schools of the Jewish community of Salonica has been agreed to by the Zaimis-Ca fandaris Cabinet after a considerable delay. The decision still requires ratification by the Chamber of Deputies. Since the reorganization of the Cabinet by M. Venizelos, with the resignation of M. Zaimis, the future of the Jewish communal schools of Salonica has again become doubtful. The schools cannot exist without State grants, and it is hoped that M. Venizelos will decide to approve the decision of the late Government with regard to the subsidy for the Jewish schools.
