Reports submitted to the Mizrachi convention and the Mizrachi Youth conference revealed that $10,000 was remitted during the past year to the Hapoel Hamizrachi in Palestine.
Addresses at the youth convention were delivered by Isidore Epstein, national president; Rabbi Seymour M. Zambrowsky, national executive director, and Max Hagler, national vice-president.

It was indicated that a recommendation will be made to the next Mizrachi Youth conference that the name of the organization be changed to Poel Hamizrachi, thus definitely identifying the movement as a labor organization.
