Sir Esme Howard, British Ambassador to Washington, today received Col. Frederick H. Kisch, of the Palestine Zionist Executive. Col. Kisch collaborated with Sir Esme in the collection and preparation of data regarding boundaries of the new states and their constitutions under the peace treaty, on behalf of the British government, for the Peace Conference following the World War.
A reception in honor of Col. Kisch was tendered last night by Major Julius I. Peyser at his home. Present at the gathering were a number of Jewish leaders not hitherto identified with the Zionist movement, including Rabbi Abram Simon, Simon Lyon, Edmund Kaufmann, Max Fischer, Frederic William Wile and Alvin Newmyer.
Senator William H. King of Utah and Colonel Kisch were the speakers.
