Further consideration of the plan to promote Jewish agricultural work in Poland was taken up at a meeting of the Tor, the newly formed society for promoting this work in Poland. H. D. Naumberg, Polish Jewish writer, presided.
A report submitted showed that the position of the Jewish farmers in the districts of Czenstochowa and Grochow is very unfavorable. The meeting decided to take measures to help these farmers. It decided also to negotiate with the Jewish land owners in the district of Warsaw, to permit the students in the agricultural courses, to obtain practical experience on their farms.
The Executive also decided to officialy notify the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, the Jewish Colonization Association, the Jewish Relief Organization of London, of the establishment of the Tor.
