Regular shipping service between Europe and Palestine was inaugurated today when the S.S. Kidma, owned and operated by the Jewish Maritime League of Palestine, left here en route to Haifa.

The Kidma, which is manned almost entirely by Jews, will make its first voyage from Palestine carrying delegates to the 22nd Zionist Congress, scheduled to be held in Switzerland in November.
