All reports about any intention on the part of the Mizrachi representatives to return to the present Executive of the Jewish Agency or the Executive of the Zionist Organisation are groundless, Rabbi Fischman, member of the Mizrachi World Executive, said to the J.T.A. representative here, during his visit to Vienna on his way back to Palestine. The Mizrachi representatives by their resignation from the Executive have thrown off all responsibility for the political work of the Executive, he declared It is also the prevailing opinion in the Polish Mizrachi, he went on, that Dr. Weizmann had no right to accept Mr. MacDonald’s letter. The letter, he said, apart from a few citations, contains nothing to reassure Jewish opinion or to facilitate the work in Palestine.
