z|0N|STS PLAN
CELEBRATION
Organizations Meet Here to
Arrange for Big Banquet
on August Is

A meeting was recently held of
representatives of the several TioE-
list organizations of Perth Amboy to
discuss the appropriate celebration
of the confirmation by the League
of Nations of the British mandate
over Palestine which authorizes The
establishment of the Jewish nation
al home. The organizations repre-
scented were the local Zionist district.
the local Camp of the Order Sons OF
Zion, and the local branches of the
Mizrachi, Poale Zion and Hadassa
organizations. After considerable
discussion it was agreed that the
main celebration should take the
form of a banquet and that all Jew
ish organizations of the city be ask
ed to join in the celebration. 1t was
also decided to arrange a special
children's entertainment, to when
the parents and friends of the chill
dren are to be invited. The arrange
ments for the banquet were put in
charge of a committee on which the
several organizations are represent
ed and which consists of Philip Le-
vine as chairman, and Rev. II. l..
Chain, Louis Braines, l.. Gutman,
Mrs. Charles Bardin and Mrs. Max
Semer. The arrangements for the
children's entertainment were put in
charge of Miss Eva Settler in &C
operation with the teachers of the
Hebrew schools and the leaders OF
Jewish juvenile societies.
Progress is being made by both
committees The banquet committee
has set the date for the banquet as
Tuesday night, August Is. and the
place as the New Packer House. 1t
is arranging an enjoyable program
of music and informal toasts. Dis
tinguished Zionist leaders will be
present as guests of honor. Though
it is anticipated that bright prospects
] opened up by the ratification of the
, Mandate will greatly facilitate work
for Zionism and the Palestine
Foundation Fund, no attempt is to
be made to take advantage of the
banquet for purposes of raising the
funds or soliciting membership. Tic
kets for the banquet have been is
sued and can be obtained from men,
bers of the committee at $3.50 each
The children's entertainment, when
will be free to the public, will tax
place on the 18th of August and is to
include among other interesting fea-
lures, a Hebrew playlet appropriate
to the occasion which will be rem
6ered by the children of the Perth
