Other major resolutions adopt
ed by the Conference before it
concluded it's sessions on Thursday
night, September End included
several devoted to the rescue of
the Jews of Europe, outlining a
program for the postwar status
of European Jewry and demand
ing Jewish representation on in
ternational bodies to be set up to
deal with relief, rehabilitation and
resettlement.
It was also decided that the
Conference would be subject to
recall, not later than one year
from the date of adjournment, at
the request of a body known as
the Interim Committee which was
set up to consist of one member
for every ten delegates plus eight
at large. The Interim Committee
would implement the decision of
the Conference. However, if peace
should be declared, the Jewish
delegates to any peace conference
would have to be selected by an
other session of the entire Ameri-
can Jewish Conference and not by
the Interim Committee, a name
chosen in Difference to those who
disliked the name Executive Com
mittee on the ground that it i'm
piled broad powers to act.
One of the chief issues that
dominated the acknowledgements
discussion-and virtually every
major decision was ironed out in
committee meetings rather than
on the floor of the Conference
revolved around the question OF
the permanence of the Confer
ence. Several of the existing or
CARNATIONS felt that converting
the Conference into an established
and permanent body would Jeop-
ardize their own scope of activity.
The only group which strongly
favored making the Conference
an all-time assembly for the ex-
preston of views by American
Jews on all important Jewish
nroblems was the Zionist labor
bloc.
Resolution On Palestine
Prior to the reading of the res
olution on Palestine, DR.. Silver
called attention to the fact that
the Jewish Labor Committee and
the National Council of Jewish
Women representatives were alb
staining from voting. He read a
declaration by each. The jewish
Labor Committee declared us
solidarity with Jewish labor IN
Palestine on the subjects OF Pales-
tine immigration and colonlzatlon'
demanded the revocation OF the
White Paper of 1889 and a guar
antee of free immigration, lana
purchase and colonization IN Pal-
estine. AS to the ultimate con-
stitutional status of Palestine the
Committee could not express any

opinion because there is no unan-
unity of view among it's men,
bers. The Council of Jewish
Women statement pointed out
that its membership is widely di-
vergent and that it's program does
not specifically cover the subject
of zionism. Under the circum-
stances the three delegates would
have to refrain from casting any
vote.
Three resolutions had been SUBJ
mitted, DR.. Silver observed. All
had been Incorporated into a
single resolution. He did not re-
port what was commonly known
that in his committee the vote on
the resolution was 81 to 2.
A vast sea of appraised arms re-
piled to the call for affirmative
votes. There were four negative
votes by Rabbi Louis Mann, of
Chicago, and the delegates of the
American Jewish Committee, Jo-
seph M. Proskauer, New York,
Jacob Blaustein, Baltimore, and

Fred Lazarus, Columbus.
DR.. Stephen S. Wise, who pre-
sided at the session, expressed
qualification at the vote and not
ed that although he had voted
against the resolution the Presi-
dent of the American Jewish
Committee had remained in the
hall as a delegate. At this, Mr..
Proskauer received a rising ova-
ton. He then read the Committee
declaration which said, in part:
1T is with profound regret that,
for the American Jewish Com
mittee and my two fellow-dele-
gates from that organization, I
must register dissent from the
resolutions which have been intro
duced and which I have no doubt
will receive the vote of this Con-
| ference.
"These resolutions at this criti-
cal time call for vesting in Jew
ish authority the full power to
regulate and direct immigration
into Palestine and presently call
for the creation of a Jewish Com
monwealth. Quite apart from the
validity or invalidity of these pro-
posals were they to be considered
in the interval between the cessa-
ton of hostilities and a peace
conference, we believe that at
this time, when the gravest and
most delicate military and world
wide political questions are in
volved, the present issuance of
these proposals contained in the
resolutions is unWise because il
may carry with it embarrassment
| to the governments of the United
Nations, and is calculated tc
jeopardize the status of Jews ano
even prejudice the fullest devel-
opment of the Jewish settlement
in Palestine itself
I'm entering this Conference
the American Jewish Committee
acted on the condition that the
then so-called Assembly should
be called the Conference and
! that the right of any participating
organization to dissent from and,
so dissenting, not to be bound by
the conclusions of the Conference
was recognized. Pursuant to that
provision, for myself and for my
two fellow-delegates and tn e
American Jewish Committee, and
for the reasons have mentioned,
we regretfully dissent from con-
currence with these resolutions. "
Resolutions On Postwar Status
A wide-ranging program affect
ing the political status of the
Jews in the postwar world was
adopted by the Conference at the
next to the last session. 1t read
as follows:
1.-THE catastrophe which has
overwhelmed the Jews of Europe
has it's roots in the international
anarchy which contributed to the
assault of the Axis powers on civ
ilization. No people anywhere can
hope to establish it's life on per-
manent foundations of security
and justice unless the same funda-
mental rights are accorded equal
ly to all.
1--WE earnestly hope that a
world order based on the Four
Freedoms and the Atlantic Char
ter, will also find its expression
in an international Bill of Rights
embOdying:

ton of life and liberty for all in

Jewish Conference has record favOng the
Establishment of Jewish Commonwealth in Palestine. The

cal fortunes of the Zionist movement and by the

delegates representing the American Jewish Committee
was the climax of the American Jewish Conference which
had brought 5O2 delegates from all parts of the United

and Jewish community.
