The Jewish Central Committee of Poland has issued a statement announcing that “it considers it useless to maintain connections with the present administration of the World Jewish Congress” because of the refusal of the executive of the Congress to participate in the World Conference for Peace which was held recently in Paris under the auspices of groups sympathetic to the Soviet Union.
The statement declares that the Central Committee will conduct a campaign “by word and in the press” against the present administration of the World Jewish Congress. “The leadership of the World Jewish Congress has remained an instrument of the reactionary Zionist bourgeoisie, and after the establishment of Israel it became a direct tool in the hands of those who strive to hand over Israel to Anglo-Saxon imperialists and to convert the Jewish state into a base against the Soviet Union,” the statement asserts.
