capacity, resulting in huge deficits. We reluctantly
decided to sell it and donate the large Pejsach Kaplan
Library, containing five thousand books, 10 6
Kadimah Culture Center in Melbourne, after its own

Bialystok in Israel, as well as other important Jewish
institutions in Melbourne. ...Connected nodes
