The League of Nations Secretariat has to-day published in Yiddish and Hebrew the pamphlets issued by the Information Section on the various aspects of the League of Nation’s work, such as Mandates, Minorities, Permanent Court of International Justice, Intellectual Co-operation, humanitarian activities, etc., published hitherto in English, French and German, the official languages of the League.
The publication in Yiddish and Hebrew, for the information of Jewish readers, follows on the request of the Polish Government made to the last Assembly of the League of Nations, which adopted a resolution instructing the Secretariat to carry out this decision. The information pamphlets have been published at the same time also in Polish and Ukrainian.
