Premier David Ben Gurion has urged the Ministerial and Jewish Agency committees working together on the problem of a legal status for the Agency in Israel to complete the work within two weeks because of the urgency of the matter. The two committees will meet within a few days to begin drafting a law providing for such status.
The Ministerial committee is composed of the Premier; Dov Joseph, Minister of Trade and Industry; Golda Myerson, Labor Minister; and Moshe Shapira, Minister of Interior and Minister for Religious Affairs. The Agency group consists of Zalman Shazar, Eliahu Dobkin, Itzhak Raphael and Dr. Emanuel Neumann.
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.
