The Vienna Kehillah, in drawing up its budget, has decided to contribute 40,000 shillings for Palestine upbuilding, out of which the Keren Hayesod will get 20,000 shillings, the Chalutzim movement 12,000, the rest going to the Agudath Israel work in Palestine and to the Palestine Workers’ Fund.
Representatives of all parties in the Kehillah emphasized the necessity of all Jews participating in the Palestine upbuilding after the August riots.
