Members of an American-Jewish labor delegation to Palestine gave an enthusiastic account of their experiences in the Holy Land and interviews with French Government leaders on their way back at a reception here last night by the Poale-Zion, labor Zionist organization.

French Colonial Minister Marius Moutet was quoted by Isadore Nagler as having said to the delegates: “My friends, what has taken France a hundred years in Africa, your Jewish people accomplished in five years in Palestine.”
