A conflict among the members of the administration of the Jewish National Fund in Poland has arisen in connection with the winter campaign for the Fund and the participation of the Zionist Revisionists.
The General Zionist representatives have refused to permit the Revisionists to be represented in the direction of the campaign so long as the Zionist Executive has not settled the question of Revisionist discipline.
Until such a time as this question is solved, the General Zionists in Poland regard co-operation with the Revisionists as an impossibility.
The Palestine delegate of the Jewish National Fund now in Poland, Esrachi, has appealed to the Zionist Executive in London to take up the matter promptly.
In the meantime, he calls upon Polish Zionists not to postpone the campaign.
The controversy between the General Zionists and the Revisionists has been of long standing. At one stage the Revisionists undertook to boycott Palestine funds, until their demands for the reorganization of Palestine offices were carried through.
The Actions Committee at its last session in the summer recognized the Revisionists as a separate union within the Zionist Organization. Since then a world conference of the Revisionist Union was held which affirmed that the Revisionist Union has the first right to discipline its members.
