The Conference was addressed by Rabbi Joshua Goldberg who described the conditions confronting the Jewish people in many lands. Resolutions were adopted calling upon the incoming administration to take steps leading to the strengthening of the organization. An effort is also to be made to establish a Court of Arbitration for the settlement of disputes arising among Jewish institutions. A resolution was adopted felicitating the poet, Chaim Nachman Bialik, on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday anniversary.
