The 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Maccabi sports organization was observed here at a three-day Maccabi conference which concluded today after adopting a resolution demanding a “Jewish Palestine within its historic boundaries.”
Another resolution demanded that central Jewish organizations establish in Palestine two settlements for ex-servicemen. The conference also decided to establish a Maccabi Colonization and Housing Corporation.
