Assurances that the Polish government is sympathetic towards the upbuilding of the Jewish National Home in Palestine were given today by the Polish foreign minister, M. Zaleski, in a speech at a great meeting arranged here in honor of Nahum Sokolow, the veteran Zionist leader now visiting in this country. Zaleski promised to support Jewish interests in Palestine at the next session of the League of Nations.
Others present at the meeting were the new prime minister, M. Bartel; the speaker of the senate, Szymansky, and representatives of the other ministers, as well as the mayor of Warsaw. Sokolow, in an impressive address in Polish, discussed the present situation in Palestine. Later in the day he visited the foreign minister and was received by the British ambassador.
