Completion of a philosophic work, “Into New Life,” by Michael Wurmbrand, former head of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency office in Berlin, was announced here today. Wurmbrand was editor of the JTA service in Berlin since 1922. When the Nazis came to power in Germany, he was compelled to move to Prague, where he continued the JTA service for central and south-eastern Europe. He recently arrived in the United States, where he completed his book and worked out a number of cinema scripts. Wurmbrand is the author of a book, “Die Leuchte,” which was highly praised by numerous European publications.
