teal questions: How much would
Wallach's services entail? What
would he do if he had the money?
How would he raise the money?
/ Mr. Wallach said he would need
from 5000 to $500 year. He
would get busy doing the kind Of

than Reform strengthen anti

+ Mr.. Wallach suggested a key
group Of individuals in New York

money and the conduct Of the
work. This group would have to
have freedom to work and to

Goldenson asked whether the

the latter, although sole identifi-

Jewish Committee but now a
free lance" in public relations.
This opposition movement is the
last stand Of the anti-Zionist
forces, he stressed, and to achieve
its objective an organized group
must be fought with organization.
The Zionists, he charged, have
captured the organs and media Of
public opinion. The American
Jewish Committee, he charged,
has "ducked" this issue. It's men,
bers were not aggressively anti
Zionist, although they were and
are basically anti-Zionist.
Mr.. Wallach's plan involved
grooming for action" several
thousand people, at least one rep
resentative in every city, who
would fight for a hearing and who
would have, according to Mr.. Wal
ZACH, the same functions as
Christian Science representative
in a community.
At this point, Mr.. Wallach mod
estly suggested that he did not
want to earn his living doing this
type of public relations, but, af-
ter all, he would have to have the
burden Of making living lifted"
from him, if he were to do this
public relations work.
Rabbi Rosenau said that the
Baltimore rabbis had given a

ach's plan. It was necessary to

tart a magazine, for financial
easons.
Mr.. Wallach responded that a
