A Jewish administrative national region will soon be proclaimed in the Krivoy Rog colonies, according to a decision of the National Minorities Committee of the Ukrainian Central Executive Committee.
It is planned to create more autonomous regions since it is expected that by this, the Soviet system will be introduced into the Jewish colonies and “offset the influence of foreign Jewish bourgeois organizations.”
