(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
Dr. Chaim Weizmann and Felix M. Warburg arrived today on the steamer Mauretania.
Mr. Warburg in an exclusive Interview with the correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency stated that the prospects for the consummation of the Jewish Agency plan are very favorable.
Following the conclusion of the sessions of the Commission, Mr. Warburg intends to visit Baron Edmond de Rothschild in Paris and to proceed to Hamburg to visit his family. It is also possible, he stated, that he will attend the Joint Ica Foundation meeting in Paris. He expects to confer with Dr. Bernard Kahn, European director of the Joint Distribution Committee, in London or on the continent. He will attend the meeting of the Hebrew University Board in London on June 4.
Mr. Warburg said he was gratified with the results of the Rosenwald fund which has collected seven million dollars among a few subscribers. Mr. Warburg is undecided how long he will remain in Europe. He stated that Mr. Marshall who is expected to arrive next week, will not remain long in Europe.
