The change in the situation
since Our last convention in Chi
cago was evidenced in the resolu-
tons adopted at the last session
of the convention. These resolu-
tons deal mainly with instruc-
tons to our delegates to the world
Zionist Convention, and briefly
are:
CD The adoption of the Pitts
burgh Program as the guiding
principle in the restoration of the
National Jewish Homeland.
(2) The opening forthwith
the doors of Palestine to Jewish
immigration.
60 The formulation forth
with of a complete plan for car
rying forward the work of public
sanitation and public medical
service for the whole of Palestine,
for the benefit of all its inhabi-
tants.
The convention also instructed
its delegates as follows:
.(D The approval of the de-
cision of the Greater Actions
Committee to make the Jewish
Colonial Trust the central fnan-
cial agency of the Zionist Organi
cation.
(2) The recognition of the i'm
portance of the Jewish National
Fund in the upbuilding of Pales-
tine and urges the strengthening
of the Fund" to the end that it
may meet the demands that will
be made upon it in the future.
The session closed with a call
to all Zionist bodies to join in a
harmonious prosecution of the
great task before them.
