A meeting of Yiddish journalists decided today to take steps to enable the Yiddish PEN Club, which was suspended in Wilno after the corporation of Lithuania into the Soviet Union, to resume its activities in London. A committee was elected, including Dr. Ignacy Schwartzbart, Simon Rawidowicz, Leo Kenig, A.M. Fuks, Dr. H. Levenberg, S. J. Dorfsohn and S. Goldschmidt, to plan the reorganization and to contact the world center of the PEN Club.
