The Federation of Zionist Youth here today issued a report complaining that there is continuing apathy and decline in the Zionist in the Zionist youth movements in England.
It seems that many Jewish parents are not very keen on their children becoming Zionist or even pro-Zionist fearing perhaps that the children will be bitten by the beg of Zionism and go off to Israel leaving the parents behind,” the report says. It warns that “if this state of affairs continues, then there will come a time when there will be so people left to take on the work of senior Zionists.”
