Money sent by American Jews to their relatives in Soviet Russia for Jewish religious purposes will be used for maintaining a Soviet school, according to a decision of the Communist court in the village of Naravlia, Government of Minsk.
The money was sent from America by the Landsmanshaft Committee for the purpose of erecting a religious bath house (Mikvah). The local Jewish Communists protested against using the money for this purpose.
