The results of the Jewish Agency Conference in New York City on October 20 and 21 will have its first tangible results when, it is expected, numerous non-Zionists will attend the opening of the Boston Drive. Preliminary efforts for stimulating interest in the campaign include the observation of “Palestine Sabbath,” which has, been proclaimed throughout New England for Friday evening, October 26, and Saturday morning, October 27. Rabbis throughout the territory will preach on Palestine during those two days.
