A resolution voicing the British Labor Party’s determination that Jews shall have equality in the post-war world and that they shall be able to establish a national home in Palestine was introduced at the 41st annual party convention being held here. It is expected that the resolution will be voted upon by the delegates on Thursday.

Included in a larger resolution covering the international situation is the following passage dealing with Jews: “This conference records its detestation of the sufferings inflicted upon the Jewish people. It reaffirms its determination that in a new international order after the war the Jews shall enjoy civil, religious and economic equality with all other citizens and that international assistance shall be given to promote, by immigration and settlement, a Jewish national home in Palestine.”
