The thirtieth anniversary of the Order of the Sons of Zion was celebrated last night with a dinner at the Hotel Astor attended by 600 persons who had contributed $10,000 to the Jewish National Fund campaign. President Roosevelt and Governor Lehman were among those who sent congratulatory messages. Dr. Israel Goldstein, president of the J.N.F., in an address, said establishment of a Jewish State outside Palestine, as proposed by Italy, would be contrary to the interests of the Zionist movement. Dr. Harris J. Levine was chairman and Joseph Kraemer, Grand Nasi of the order, presided.
