The Executive Committee of the World Jewish Congress today decided not to hold the Congress in 1935 as originally contemplated.
The decision was reached in connection with developments in the American Jewish Congress which is calling an extraordinary conference in Philadelphia on March 16. The Philadelphia gathering is being convoked for the purpose of postponing the elections in America to the World Jewish Congress from April 28 to a later date.
The World Jewish Congress will probably be held not before 1936, it was stated here today. In the meantime, the possibility was discussed here of convoking a French Congress during the Summer of 1935. This project, however, is meeting with strong opposition on the part of those Jewish representatives who are seeking to establish in France an organized Jewish representative French Jewish body, similar to the Board of Deputies of British Jews existing in England.
