A world wide plebiscite on questions which may affect the future of the entire Zionist movement was indicated yesterday in a statement issued by Vladimir Jabotinsky in connection with the sessions of the Actions Committee of the World Zionist Organization which opens tomorrow in Jerusalem.
Mr. Jabotinsky, leader of the Revisionist party, emphasized in his statement that the Revisionist members of the Actions Committee will insist that a round-table conference of all groups in the Zionist movement be called by the Executive of the World Zionist Organization before the election campaign for the next World Zionist Congress is started.
“The only way to create a united front in the Zionist movement is to summon a round-table conference before the electoral campaign is opened,” Mr. Jabotinsky’s statement says. “The Revisionist delegates to the Actions Committee session will demand the convocation of such a conference. Should this demand be rejected, then Revisionist leadership will arrange a World Union plebiscite on a momentous proposal which will affect the future of the entire Zionist movement.”
