S. Gronemann, President of the Congress Court of the Zionist Organization, has informed the Revisionist Fraction of the Actions Committee that he has arranged for a session of the Congress Court during the meeting of the Actions Committee in London, at the end of this month, in order to deal with the charge brought by the Revisionist Fraction of the Actions Committee against the Zionist Executive, in connection with the affair of the Palestine Offices.

The Congress Court has already received, from the Revisionist Fraction of the Actions Committee, a detailed statement of the charge, supported by documents, claiming to show that the Zionist Executive has failed to carry into effect the Congress decision respecting the reform of the Palestine Offices, and has entrusted to illegal bodies, whose competence had long terminated and whose composition is in contradiction to the decisions of the Congress, with the distribution of the certificates, so that the distribution is eo ipso illegal and in diametrical opposition to the Congress decision.

The Revisionist Fraction of the Actions Committee asks that the Zionist Executive be ordered to dissolve the Palestine Offices; to declare null the distribution of the certificates already made by it and to stop immediately the handing over of the certificates to the persons already designated, without awaiting the result of the Revisionist charge.

The Revisionist Fraction of the Actions Committee has named a number of witnesses in connection with the proceedings, among them Leo Motzkin, the President of the Congress; H. Farbstein, member of the Executive, and Dr. S. E. Soskin, members of the Congress Praesidium, and Robert Stricker, who conducted the negotiations with the Congress President regarding the Palestine Certificates, on behalf of the Revisionist Congress Fraction, during the Congress at Basle.
