The 30th. anniversary of the Jewish National Fund was celebrated last night at a banquet given here at the Edison Hotel, attended by 800 guests, each paying 25 dollars, thus raising a sum of 20,000 dollars, which is being assigned for the purchase of 800 dunams of land in Palestine.
Mr. Nahum Sokolov, Rabbi Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Mr. Louis Lipsky, Mr. Fmanuel Neuman, Rabbi Meir Berlin and Mr. Robert Szold addressed the gathering.
