The Jewish population in Eastern Galicia was urged to continue its fight for economic equality and for securing its “national and cultural interests” in an appeal issued jointly by the executive committee of the Zionist Organization in this region and by the newly elected Jewish deputies, Dr. Leon Reich and Lesser.
“Notwithstanding the considerable improvement in the economic situation of the country, the Jewish masses of Eastern Galicia continue in their miserable condition, being unaided in their attempt at economic rehabilitation,” the appeal states.
