Concluding its sessions today, the Galician Zionist Federation elected Mr. Shmorak executive president and Mr. Schrieber, party president, succeeding the late Dr. Leon Reich, who held both offices. Three vice-presidents were elected, who include Mr. Rosmarin, former deputy Sommerstein and Dr. Lustic, member of the Revisionist group. The new executive consists of twelve members of the majority group, four Revisionists and four Opposition members.
The Opposition members, it is stated, have not yet accepted their appointments to the Executive and it is rumored that the entire group intends to resign from the East Galician organization and join the Zionist Federation of Central Poland.
