A most interesting report of condi-
tions in Serbia has come from Miss
Hetty Goldman, who has also been in
Greece, spending much of her time in
Salonica doing pressing relief work.
Miss Goldman's report deals more par
ticularly with Monastir and gives a
complete picture of the changes
wrought in that city as the result of
warfare. She says:
"At present there are about $50
Jewish families in Monastir, of whom
themselves, and the remaining 400 plus
are very poor. There is, then, at pres
ent a Jewish population Of between
5000 and 1000 souls. Of these about
1000 are on the government list of the
entirely destitute"
