High praise for the heroism of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in flashing the news of the late Palestine massacres to the world at the risk of its correspondent’s lives is contained in an editorial in the current number of “The Jewish Forum.”

“The recent achievement of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in flashing the news of the massacres in Palestine across the world, often at the risk of its agents’ lives, has put not only Palestinian, but world Jewry, greatly under its indebtedness. What the benefits to Jewry in the future may be, as a result of the timely action it thus stimulated on the part of Jewish communities throughout the world, the present cannot for tell. And to have shown sufficient courage to incur indebtedness to the extent of tens of thousands of dollars in rendering this service, without even knowing where this money would come from, is tantamount to an act of heroism on a par with much of the kind shown in Palestine itself.

“It all the reports in the ‘Jewish Daily Bulletin’ would receive the unbiased attention which the reports of the disturbances in Palestine received, we could think of no publication that could render a greater service to Jewry everywhere.”
