The executive of the Jewish Agency for Palestine today indicated that it disagrees with a proposal made by Bernard Joseph, legal adviser of the Agency, for settling the rift within the Zionist movement in the United States by inviting Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, Mrs. Rose Halperin and Rabbi Israel Goldstein to Palestine for conversations to determine a policy for the Zionist Organization of America.
The Agency executive feels that instead of inviting a Zionist delegation from the United States to come to Palestine, it is more desirable that Dr. Chaim Weizmann, David Ben-Gurion and the Mizrachi leader Jacob Fishman proceed to New York to straighten out the Wise-Silver controversy and to bring about unity in the ranks of the Zionist Organization of America.
