A demand for government assistance to Jewish agriculture in Palestine in order that the country might be made self-sufficient as far as food is concerned, was voiced today in a resolution adopted at the closing session of the conference of Jewish Farmers Associations being held here.
The conference also passed resolutions expressing its opposition to the post-war reconstruction scheme of the Palestine Government, demanding that the Jewish Agency prepare its own plan and urging steps to save the Jews in Europe.
