Zionist Organization in Russia Destroyed, is Boast of Communists

Aeroplane Built by Jewish Workers Will Make First Flight (Jewish Telegraphic Agency)

The complete disintegration of Zionist organizations in the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics was boasted of in a report submitted by Tehenterinski at the All Union conference of the Yevsektzia, the Jewish section of the Communist Party, which was opened here yesterday.

In reporting this fact Tehemerinski added, however, that “clericalism” still has a strong influence on the Jewish population in Russia and particularly on the younger generation. The process of the industrialization of the Jewish masses in Soviet Russia is very slow. The same is true in the field of agricultural work, Tehemerinski stated.

Twenty thousand more Jewish workers have been drawn into the industries in Russia and 15,0000 additional young Jewish men and women were attracted to agricultural work as a result of the economic changes which have been brought about in the situation of Russian Jewry, according to a report submitted by Glasman, secretary of the Yevsektzia.

“Der Yiddischer Horepashnik” (Jewish artisan) is the name of an aeroplane which is now being constructed under the auspices of the Yevsektzia. The aeroplane will make its first flight on November 7 when the tenth anniversary of the Communist revolution will be celebrated. The Emes, Communist daily, states that the aeroplane will cost £3,500. The fund was raised by collections of pennies from Jewish workers as a symbol of Jewish equal rights and duties in Soviet Russia.
