N. M. ROKER
He was a
journalist. From 1914 he co-edited a
small daily entitled Sandzer tsaytung
(Sącz

role in local life was played by the newspaper Viner
morgentsaytung (Vienna morning newspaper) which Roker established in
1915. In January 1919 he changed its
name to Yidishe morgenpost (Jewish
morning mail). In May 1920 it became a
