Statistics Memo:
98 Kosher Meat
Markets in L.A.
LOS ANGELES (AJP)—Here's
a memo for the Jewish statistics
for 5711:
Samuel Leventhal, president of
the Kosher Butchers Association,
reported in the Bnai Brith Mes-
senger that 98 meat markets
adhere strictly to all dietry rules
and edicts of the Orthodox Rab-
binate of Los Angeles and may
therefore be considered as kosh-
er.
The newspapers selling for a
