Baron, professor of Jewish History, Literature and Institutions at Columbia University, will leave shortly to lecture in Johannesburg, Capetown and other centers throughout the Union of South Africa on the problems of Palestine and the communal and cultural problems of the Jews in America, it was announced today.
