The first national conference of the United Zionist Organization of Mexico closed its four days of deliberations with a banquet Friday after adopting a series of resolutions looking toward defense of the Jewish position in Mexico and Europe, and planning support of the Jewish homeland in Palestine. The 80 delegates approved a resolution proclaiming a campaign to raise 100,000 pesos this year for the Jewish National Fund and the Palestine Foundation Fund, supported Dr. Chaim Weizmann’s policies, called for a fight against anti-Jewish discriminations in Mexico, and protested against discriminations in Poland and Rumania.
