The administrative committee of the New Zionist Organization today decided to request the NZO in South Africa to cable the full text of the agreement which it has reached with the South African Zionist Federation. Meanwhile the administrative committee is refraining from issuing any comment on this act which brings the Revisionists back into the ranks of the general Zionist movement.
It was disclosed here today that the agreement between the Revisionists and the Zionists in South Africa was signed on the basis of a pact concluded between the Revisionists and the Histadruth leaders in Tel Aviv in November, 1940. This pact provided for the acceptance by the Zionist organization of a number of points advocated by the NZO program.
