The Jews of the United States will send from 15,000 to 20,000 American chalutzim to Palestine annually as soon as the war is over, it was predicted today at a press conference here by Bernard Joseph, legal adviser of the Jewish Agency for Palestine, who reported on his impressions of American Jewish life.
Dr. Joseph said that he is confident that president Roosevelt will fulfill his promises with regard to Palestine given to the Zionist Organization of America before the presidential elections. The support which American labor organizations and church groups are giving to the Zionist cause was stressed by Dr. Joseph.
