The Yiddish newspapers here make a big feature of the J.T.A. reports of the new developments in the Jewish question in Spain and print editorials expressing satisfaction at the stand taken up by the Republican Government.
The importance of the invitation to Jews to come to Spain lies not so much in the practical possibility of the immigration of large Jewish masses, the “Day” writes, but in the satisfaction with which it fills Jewish hearts all over the world. The invitation must and will be regarded as a great triumph in Jewish history.
We are certain, the “Forward” writes, that the new Spain condemns the sinister powers which oppressed not only the Jews, but every free expression of thought. Spain will have to do very much for the Jews if she wishes to atone completely for the terrible injustice which she once committed. Historic injustices can be forgotten only with new historic acts.
