WEIZMANN MAY QUIT
WORLD ZION LEADERSHIP
Rumors Fill Lobbies at Congress in
Carlsbad, Despite Vote of
Confidence.
BY the Associated Press.

CARLSBAD, August 16 CJewish
Telegraph Agency).-The Hobbies of
the Zionist congress are filled with
rumors that DR.. Chain Weizmann will
resign. as president of the world s
organization, despite the vote of con-
fidence which the assembly gave him
yesterday.
Dr. Weizmann approved the formula
upon which the vote of confidence was
based and expected that all factions
would unite on this formula and that
the vote would be unanimous.
Another cause of friction is the
choosing of members of the new eX-
ecutive. A variety of lists is being
circulated. 1t is learned, however.
that DIR. Weizmann insists on what
he calls a homogeneous executive"
and as his program has been approved
he will demand that the new leader
ship be in thorough accord with his
system. He is accordingly deter
mined to drop NJ. Ussishkin. the pres
ent director of Zionists activities in
Palestine; DIR. Soloweitchick. former
minister for Jewish affairs in
Lithuania. and DR.. NJ. Lichthein of
Berlin. all three of whom publicly
opposed him.
