A resolution urging that ”the Jewish people be accepted as an equal member in the community of the United Nations,” since they were the first victims of Nazism, was made public here today by the New Zionist Organization of America in the form adopted at the annual convention of the organization held here last week.

Another resolution, dealing with the question of the establishment of a Jewish Army, says that the entry of the United States into the war and the formation of the United Nations ”has made the conduct of the war in the Near East, and particularly in Palestine, a matter which is no longer the exclusive concern of Great Britain.” Col. Morris J. Mendelsohn was re-elected president of the NZO at the convention. Dr. I. Goldstein was elected executive director.
