The Jewish contribution to the recently opened Soviet book exhibition here is slight: one prayer book and three partially stenciled calendars. Other Soviet nationalities make a much larger contribution to the exhibition, which purports to show the literary and intellectual achievements of the USSR. The Jewish prayer book was printed in 1956.
