Anti-Zionist Moves

Hope Plans for Conference
Will Be Abandoned,
They Say

by Oscar S. Straus and Jacob II. Schf

to have their names associated with
such meeting and deplored the in
creased dissention which they believed
it would cause.
Permit me to say" wrote Mr.. Straus,
that I regard the. holding of con-
Alonists as distinctly unwise and harm
full. In view Of the fact that Great
Britain, France and the other Allied
nations through their highest officials
have given assurances for the welfare
Of the Jews in Palestine, regardless Of
the fact whether one is a Zionist or
not, to oppose such a beneficial purpose
on the part Of section Of our people
can only be hurtful and show lack
not only OF unanimity but of apprecia-
ton for these welcome assurances,
which should receive the gratitude not
only of Jews as such, but as Ameri-
cans, for this first significant and con-
crete move on the part of the Allied
nations to'assure freedom of develop
ment Of subject nationalities
Mr.. Straus expressed the hope that
the intention Of calling such confer
ence would be abandoned. Mr.. Schitf
not him self a Zionist, called such oppo-
sition to the efforts of the Allies moth
ing less than preposterous.
Your proposition, in the nature of
things as these have developed" ne
wrote, Cannot be successful and will
only bring forth bitterness, recrimina-
ton and marked division among the
Jewish people of this country, which,
am sure, is greatly to be deprecated" >"
