There is no question of B’nai B’rith joining or affiliating with the World Zionist Organization, Philip M. Klutznick, B’nai B’rith president, said today at a press conference.

He announced that the quest for Jewish unity, the quest for creativity and the quest for human rights would be the three principal themes of the triennial convention of B’nai B’rith which will open in Jerusalem Monday. More than 1, 200 delegates from many parts of the world are due for the convention.
