About 120 South African Zionists, most of whom are visitors here, had a “delightful time” in touring the land in the Sharon plain known as the South African Tract which was acquired by the Jewish National Fund in recent years by means of contributions from South Africa. They visited various new centers along the route. They later came to this town, where they were entertained at a reception.
Nicholas Kirschner, chairman of the South African Zionist Federation; Mr. Miller, its vice-chairman, and Mr. Janower, chairman of the Jewish National Fund in South Africa, were among the guests.
