Womer's Zionist Organization Of
America, has Withdrawn from the
American Youth Congress, it was

by Miss Nell ziff, national president

longer body representing fedora
ton Of organized youth functionine
according to democratic procedure, "
In a statement embodying this
charge, which was sent to all the
units. the National Board also
