ROW AMONG ZIoNISTs
Women Chant Ritualistic Hymn il
Effort to Calm Delegates.

l
/ Baltimore, June 27.-Uproar and
turmoil and confusion twice con-
founded broke like a storm over the
Zionist convention in the New AGA
DENY of Music yesterday afternoon.
One delegate raised such rumpus
in his determination to be heard above
others that DR.. Harry Friendenwald,
who was presiding, reminded him
of his power to have an offending de-
legate elected by force, if it became
necessary.
At the height Of the tempest, some
Of the women, hoping to end the dis
turbance, started to sing the world
famed anthem Of the Zionlsts, the
Hatikvoh, ritualistic solemn chant,
which was taken up with enthusi-
asm from every part of the hall.
Louder and louder it swelled' until
its echoes drowned the most vocifer-
Gus OF the excited deDaCeTS.
The excitement centered and mad
its origin in the report Of the COM
mittee on resolutions, which urged
practically the ratification Of the
famous peace agreement with the
American Jewish Congress, soon to
be neld. This agreement was entered
into by the executive committed and
states as its aims the protection arc
the securing of rights for the Jews
throughout the world, and in this
Palestine is mentioned specifically.
The resolution was passed and all
the officers reelected.
