Five radical delegates arrived here today from the United States and immediately presented demands to the executive of the World Jewish Congress that they be seated at the opening session Saturday.
The executive appointed a special admission to negotiate with the delegates, who claim they were elected by Jewish organizations in America with a membership of 500,000. A decision will be announced tomorrow.
The delegates are William Weiner, chairman of the International Workers’ Order; Dr. Charles Kuntz, chairman of ICOR; Rabbi Greenfield of Brooklyn; H. Upatschinsky of the Fur Workers’ Joint Board, and R. Saltzman, of the Jewish section of the I.W.O.
