A proposal to transfer the health institutions from the Jewish Agency to the Palestine Jewish Community, the Kenesseth Israel, was outlined at this morning’s session of the Assefath Hanivcharim, Dr. Abraham Katznelson suggesting that the Hadassah in conjunction with the Yishub should be responsible for the financing of the hospitals and other health institutions.
Mr. Berl Katznelson, the editor of the Labour daily “Davar” suggested also the transfer of the Hebrew educational system to the Yishub within six years.
The Revisionists proposed that the Jewish Health and education systems should be financed by the Palestine Government.
A delegation from the Assefath Hanivcharim is seeing Sir John Chancellor, the High Commission, to-morrow in order to present to him the following resolution:
The Assefah protests against the exclusion of Mr. Vladimir Jabotinsky, a member of this Assembly, who is in possession of a return visa to Palestine, and urges the Government to reconsider the ban and enable Mr. Jabotinsky to take his place in the country as a member of this Elected Assembly.
The memory of A. D. Gordon, the theoretician of the Palestine Labour movement, whose death anniversary it is to-day, was respected by the members of the Assembly rising in his honour.
