The Board of the Jewish Community in Berlin was restored today as the sole authority in matters affecting the Jewish community of Berlin.
Formerly the affairs of the Jewish community were conducted by a special directorium. The authorization granted to this body lapsed yesterday and has not been renewed. Thus the Community board was automatically restored.
