Plans for the establishment of a permanent body of Jewish youth and young adult councils were discussed here today at the first National Jewish Youth Conference.
Following presentation of a report by the parley’s committee on organization recommending formation of such a body the delegates began discussing the specific purposes, program and structure of the permanent organization. The committee on organization recommended that the permanent body elect an executive committee to draft a constitution to present to the next annual convention after consideration by local communities. The executive committee would also carry out the purposes of the permanent body between conventions.
