Twenty-five thousand Jews will march in a street parade Thursday afternoon to “appeal to the honor of Great Britain” and to protest against the suspension of immigration to Palestine and the recent White Paper. The demonstration will be under the auspices of the New York Zionist Region and it is expected to be the greatest Jewish demonstration the city has ever seen. Nine Jewish organizations are cooperating with the Zionist Region.
