A Palestine pilgrimage society, “Ole Regel,” has been founded by the Palestine Central Office of the Agudath Israel.
The Society will endeavor to enable people who cannot afford a visit to Palestine to make at least one pilgrimage to the country. Ten per cent, of the members will be chosen by lot each year to join in the pilgrimage. Members of the Society will be required to contribute a sum of two shillings weekly for a period of ten years. The Society is administrated by the Palestine Central Office of the Agudath Israel, which is situated in Frankfart.
