Declaring that the present genera

many Zionist leaders as the one of
most important statements on Zion
ism since Balfour's memorable declar-
alton of November .. 1917, definitely
pledging England to the establishment
of n Jewish National Homeland in
Palestine.
The article. tnking up present-day
Jewish questions, has this to say on
ZiOnism:
'ZiOnism is of the greatest import

claimed Great Britain's irrevocable at

recommendation to form city or
district federations was thoroly dis
cussed. While the formation of state
declarations might increase the in
fluence of the Sisterhoods in these dis

lessen interest in the National Fedora

however. was appointed 10 report on
the advisability of creating subordinate
federatiOns.
The SisterhoOlS were earnestly rec
commended to do all in their power

to put forth every effort to o! On more
schools in order to bring thousands OF
children who have never received the

The report also urged sympathetic
concern for Jews in prisons and re-

that the prisoner is given n chance up

In addition to these recommenda-
