After a day of heated struggle between the old administration of the Order Sons of Zion and its opponents, an entirely new administration was elected yesterday at the session of the eighteenth annual convention of the Order. The following are the new officers:

Dr. Bluestone, Nasi; Max Pearlman, Sgan rishon; Louis Hochberg. Sgan sheini; Max Fanwick, treasurer. H. Danielson was elected for Dollar-A-Year man, and the Executive Committee was empowered to engage a manager at a salary of $5,000 a year. This last decision was hailed as a greal victory for the opponents of the old administration.

Fervent pleas for harmony were made at the afternoon session by Judge Jacob Strahl, Joseph Barondess, and Dr. Feldman, Dr. Abramowitz greeted the convention for the Jewish National Fund. Closing addresses were delivered by Dr. Bluestone, Mr. Barondess, Mr. Hochberg and ex-Nasi Sol Friedland.

At a mass meeting held Sunday evening the Judea Life Insurance Company raised $52,000 for the Palestine Endowment Fund.
