The question of the right of the Revisionists to conduct separate political work was one of the most important items on the agenda of the recent meeting of the Actions Committee in London, when the Actions Committee acceded to the Revisionist application for recognition as a Separate Union. This new form of organization was made necessary for the Revisionists owing to the change in the constitution of the Revisionist Union adopted at the conference. This change opened Revisionist membership to Jews who did not adhere to the Zionist organization, so that there were henceforth two classes of Revisionists, those who accepted membership in the Zionist Organization and those who did not. It is the Revisionists who adhered to the Zionist Organization who organized themselves in the separate union which is affected by the decision of the Congress Court.
