For the first time in 21 years retired Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis and Dr. Chaim Weizmann, president of the World Zionist Organization, met yesterday, it was disclosed today. Dr. Solomon Goldman, president of the Zionist Organization of America, was also present.
Justice Brandeis, who was active in organizing the Zionist movement in this country, seemed cheered by the report Dr. Weizmann brought with him concerning the situation in Palestine, Dr. Goldman said. The 83-year-old jurist was delighted to hear that Palestine was daily receiving and absorbing refugees from the European war zone.
Both Justice Brandeis and Dr. Weizmann were convinced at the close of the conversation that “Palestine held out the largest if not the only hope” for solution of the Jewish problem, Dr. Goldman reported. Both were convinced that at the conclusion of the war the civilized nations would arrange to make Palestine a home and haven for the Jews.
