The transfer of the Jewish educational system from the Jewish Agency to the Palestine Jewish National Council was formally consummated when an agreement was signed in Jerusalem.
The agreement stipulates that the Jewish Agency must contribute the sum of £40,000 annually to the Vaad Leumi for the support of the schools. The Palestine Jewish National Council becomes responsible for the entire budget and control of the school system.
At a meeting of Los Angeles Lodge B’nai Brith, No. 487, Harry Graham Balter, assistant United States District Attorney, was unanimously elected president, Felix J. Jonas, vice-president and Adolph Sieroty, treasurer.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
