Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Jewish Year Book, 5663: October 2, 1902, to September 21, 1903 The Year Book for 5662 dealt mainly with the condition of the Jews in Roumania. In the present volume there is printed a dispatch recently sent by the Secretary of State, the Honorable John Hay, to the Government of Roumania, through the United States Minister to Athens, copies of the document being forwarded also to the Foreign Offices of the Powers who'were signatories to the Treaty of Berlin, which established Roumania as an independent State. Whilst the outcome of the action cannot as yet be foreshadowed, it is safe to say that it is the most important step in behalf of the Oppressed Jews of Eastern Europe taken by any government since the Berlin Congress. Its effect upon Russia is likely to be greater than upon Roumania. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
