Resolutions extending greetings to the youth of Great Britain, China, Greece and Nazi-held countries and denouncing totalitarianism were passed today by the 1941 National Convention of the Youngers Peoples League of the United Synagogue of America.
The 600 delegates also passed a resolution calling upon England immediately and unconditionally to open the shores of Palestine to stateless Jews. The meeting was addressed by Aubrey Williams, administrator of the National Youth Administration.
