The Hebrew Atlas, published by the Hebrew Publishing Company, Ha-Sefer, was commended by President Coolidge.
Upon receipt of a sample copy of the atlas, E. G. Clark, wrote on behalf of the President that the Atlas, published in Hebrew, is “not only an interesting achievement in itself, but has a further significance as a step in the comprehensive plan of reviving the use of that language.”
Mr. Louis Marshall, president of the American Jewish Committee, purchased a number of copies of the Atlas for distribution in the Jewish schools in Poland and Lithuania, it was learned yesterday.
The Hebrew Atlas is published under the editorship of Vladimir Jabotinsky and Dr. S. Perlman.
