As the result of the conclusion of an election bloc between the Right Poale Zion, the Socialist-Zionist Labor party, and the Jewish Socialist party (Bund) the latter may abandon its historic opposition to labor Zionism. The election agreement signed today between these two Jewish groups resulted from the Bund’s reply to a point blank question from the right Poale Zionists whether the Bund was fighting Palestine labor on principle. The Bund categorically repudiated this declaring it was a malicious calumny and added that they were supporting the workers of the whole world including those of Palestine.
