The Jewish Agency Board of Governors, with 42 members from Israel and overseas, will convene here April II to elect the chairmen of four World Zionist Organization departments: treasury, immigration and absorption, settlement and youth aliya. The elections were postponed at the Zionist Congress in February because of a dispute between the Labor Alignment and Likud over the division of the portfolios, especially that of the treasury.
