The Turkish Government approved the statutes of a new organization formed for the promotion of Jewish education in the country.
The organization will have for its purpose the establishment of new Jewish schools and artisan schools. The government has permitted the organization to receive endowments, donations and bequests. The Jewish schools in Turkey now find themselves in a precarious position since the old state subsidies were withdrawn and the difficulties created by the new regime.
