The 46th annual convention of the Zionist Organization of America, at its closing session here last night adopted a resolution greeting the Jews of Russia and expressing satisfaction at the fact that efforts are being made to establish contact between the Jews of Russia and the Jews in democratic countries.

Governor John W. Bricker of Ohio, in an address of greeting at the closing session, expressed confidence that “great good will come from the movement of which you are a part.” Further messages of greetings asking for the immediate rescue of the European Jews and voicing sympathy with the movement for the rebuilding of Palestine were received from Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Locke, and Philip Murray, president of the C.I.O.
