A proposal that the Chicago Zionists negotiate separately from the New York Zionist administration with the Brandeis-Mack group for a Zionist alliance was tabled here last night at a meeting of the Chicago Zionist district presided over by Max Schulman, in order to permit more careful study of the matter and an opportunity to get more information about it.
It appears that some time ago Judge Harry Fisher communicated with Judge Mack and asked if he would see Judge Fisher, Max Schulman and Rabbi Samuel Goldman to discuss certain modifications in the Brandeis memorandum. This was agreed to but before they decided to go to New York it was thought well to see that they represented other Chicago Zionists than themselves. Presumably last night’s meeting was the endeavor to do this.
