July 3 has been announced as the opening date of the seventy-first annual convention of District Grand Lodge No. 4 of the B’nai B’rith, which will be held in Vancouver. Sessions will continue for three days.
Grand lodge officers state that the convention this year will be more largely attended than ever before and will take the form of a Pacific Coast conference of Jewish leaders which will devote itself largely to meeting the present crisis arising from anti-Semitic activities.
