Sholem Asch, the author, will sail tomorrow on the Conte di Savoia for a six-week visit to the United States in behalf of the fund-raising campaign of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee.
“Interested in the Jewish situation in Poland, I responded to the Joint Distribution Committee’s call as a soldier,” he told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency before sailing. “I hope to be able to assist the campaign by which Polish Jewry and other Jewries benefit.”
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.
