they declared their non-confidence in the inquiry commission and declared they would give it no information. The commission’s findings will not be accepted by the Revisionists, they declared, because the inquiry was directed against the Revisionists alone and did not include their charges against the Laborites.
The entire session of the committee was occupied today by arguments on the Laborite demands for an investigation of the Revisionists and on their earlier demands that Revisionists be excluded from the Congress presidium and that their number on the Actions Committee be drastically reduced.
BRODETZKY FAVORS INQUIRY
Among those speaking in favor of the Katzenelson demand for an investigation at the committee sessions today and last night was Dr. Selig Brodetzky, British Zionist leader, who declared the inquiry was necessary to avert a grave danger to Zionism. Mizrachi spokesmen sought to limit the scope of the investigation to the relations between the Revisionists and the Laborites, and, then, to confine it along general lines. While the Grossmanist Democratic Revisionists sought to have the inquiry postponed, the Jabotinsky faction agreed to an immediate investigation along the lines of the Schechtman motion.
Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of New York, and Dr. Gronemann, of the Congress court, spoke against the motion at last night’s session of the committee.
The Laborites, it is learned, have a complete set of facts and charges already prepared for submission to the commission. They expect the commission to complete its work in a few days.
