The second national convention of the Intercollegiate Zionist Federation of America closed hare with the adoption of a resolution denouncing terrorism in Palestine. The parley was attended by 250 delegates representing some 5,000 students on 100 campuses.
The delegates set their 1947-48 membership goal at 10,000 and outlined a plan for intensification of Zionist activities on the campus. They also called for a closer orientation with the Jewish community of Palestine and added emphasis on a chalutz training program.
