A number of proposals for reorganizing and consolidating the Jewish Agency were considered at a meeting of the Commission appointed for this purpose by the Administrative Committee of the Jewish Agency held here.

Berl Locker, member of the Jewish Agency Executive, was in the chair, and there were present Dr. Leo Baeck, Kurt Blumenfeld, Dr. S. Federbusch, Dr. Nahum Goldmann, Dr. Arthur Hantke, Dr. Bernhard Kahn, Leo Motzkin, A. Reiss, Dr. Werner Senator, Oscar Wassermann and B. Zuckermann.

With a view to giving a firm structure to the non-Zionist section of the Jewish Agency, a proposal was put forward that contributors to the Keren Hayesod in the various countries should be given a vote for electing the non-Zionist section of the Agency Council.

No decision was adopted, and all the proposals brought forward will be submitted to the organs of the Jewish Agency. They will also be made available for discussion by Jewish public opinion, so that the next session of the Jewish Agency Council in the matter will be able to judge of the feeling that exists on the matter.
