Cuba Jewish Community Down to 2,383 Persons; 400 Reported Left in '65 NEW YORK (JTA)—The Jewish community in Cuba, numbering 10,000 persons before the Castro regime, has now been reduced to 2,383 persons, according to reports reaching here from Havana. The data are based on the distribution this year of Passover products sent to Cuba by Jewish organizations in Canada. The report expressed the belief that about 400 Jews have left Cuba this year. This figure is also ba:ed on the distribution of matzo and other Passover products. Last Passover there were 2,785 recip- ients of such products, while this Passover their number decreased by 402. Considering that there is a shortage of food in Cuba, it is as- sumed that no Jew there, religious or non-religious, refused accept- ance of Passover food. Of the 2,383 recipients, 1,9C7 were resi- dents of Havana, while 476 re- sided in provincial towns. They constituted 760 families in Hav- ana and 211 families in the prov- inces.
