(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)

Yiddish writers and journalists may be admitted to the International Pen Club as separate units independent of their national clubs, according to a decision taken by the International Pen Club Conference in session here. The session was under the chairmanship of John Galsworthy.

The Conference adopted a resolution, upon application of the Jewish Writers’ and Journalists’ Association of Poland, to permit the admission of several national Pen centers in one country. The resolution bars the admission of several Pen centers from one city.
