A complete break with the World Zionist Organization was decided upon today at a session of the World Revisionist Executive, which resolved to initiate a movement for a separate Congress, with a separate Shekel, and to create an independent Zionist organization.
Presided over by Vladimir Jabotinsky, today’s session adopted the following resolutions:
1. Members of the Revisionist Party or affiliated bodies are forbidden to participate in the next Zionist Congress elections, whether actively or passively.
2. Since the World Zionist Organization has replaced the Shekel of Dr. Theodore Herzl with a party ticket, members of the Revisionist Organization are forbidden to buy the Shekel, thus signifying their withdrawal from the Zionist Organization.
3. Members who defy the above resolutions will be automatically expelled from the Revisionist ranks.
4. All Revisionists are to withdraw from membership in the Zionist Actions Committee.
5. The World Revisionist Executive has notified the Executive of the Zionist Organization that since the Revisionists, as the second greatest Zionist faction, are leaving the Zionist Organization, the latter loses its right to speak as a representative of the entire Zionist movement.
