Dov Hos and Z. Rubashow, representatives of the Palestine Jewish labor federation who spent six months in the United States in the interests of the United Gewerkschaften Palestine Campaign, sailed yesterday on the Bergenaria.
In a statement issued prior to their departure, the delegates of the Palestine Labor Federation stated that the campaign conducted by the labor organization resulted in the collection of $135,000 and $25,000 for the labor bank. These amounts have been sent to Palestine for the labor insitutions. The new 1928 campaign will be started in several months and will aim at raising a quarter of a million dollars for labor institutions in Palestine.
