The fate of the several hundred Zionists who are held prisoners by the Soviet authorities may be a feature in the discussion on the political prisoners in Russia which was placed on the agenda of the Executive Committee of the Second Labor International.

The Executive Committee is meeting this week-end in London under the chairmanship of Ramsay McDonald, former Labor Prime Minister.

Several Jewish Socialist leaders are among those attending the session. They are Jarblum, a member of the Poale Zion, Otto Bauer of Austria, Modigeliani of Italy and Naphtali of Germany. The last three are members of the Executive Committee.
