The resolution was made at the end of a five-day conference in Jerusalem. Some 1500 delegates, representing 500,000 Jewish war veterans from throughout the world, took part in the assembly. They represented France, Belgium, Great Britain, U.S., Canada, South Africa, Australia, Gibraltar and Israel.
