The establishment of a Jewish organization aiming to facilitate emigration of Turkish Jews to Palestine, has been announced here. This is the first pro-Palestine organization formed in Turkey, where Zionism is forbidden.
The new organization will devote itself chiefly to helping the Jews of Turkish Thrace in those districts who are still in a very difficult position in view of the recent anti-Jewish events there.
