American Jews have contributed more than 75 percent of all the monies received by the Keren Hayesod during the last five years, it was revealed today in a report prepared for the World Zionist Congress which starts here tomorrow.
From Jews in European countries the Keren Hayesod received four percent. About the same percentage was received from the 100,000 Jews in South Africa. Jews in England contributed about five percent. Canada gave about three percent and the Latin American countries contributed about five percent.
Dr. Abba Hillel Silver and Benjamin Browdy today made a statement taking issue with an allegation by Premier David Ben Gurion last week that the Zionist Organization of America was an enemy of the labor movement in Israel and was associated with reactionaries in this country. They insisted that the record of the Z.O.A. has always been a progressive one, and the organization has been friendly toward labor.
