Funeral services for Mrs. Damma Neumann, the mother of Emanuel Neumann and Dr. Joshua Neumann, will be held at 2 o’clock this afternoon in the Jewish Memorial Chapel, 1406 Pitkin avenue, Brooklyn.
Mrs. Neumann died on Monday after a long illness. She was seventy-one years old. Her death was hastened by the death of her husband, Sundel H. Neumann, who was killed in an accident several weeks ago.
Emanuel Neumann, former member of the Zionist Executive Committee, who was about to sail for Palestine to take part in the meeting of the Actions Committee has cancelled his trip to remain for the funeral. Dr. Joshua Neumann, the second son, is a professor of English at Hunter College.
