The Jewish community here adopted a resolution today protesting against the trial of the Revisionist Zionists, Aba Achimeier, Zvi Rosenblatt and Abraham Stavsky, for the murder of Dr. Chaim Arlosoroff, now in progress in Jerusalem.
The sum of 100 zloty was voted by the community as a contribution to the defense fund being raised for the arrested Revisionists. The money was dispatched to the Chief Rabbi of Palestine, Rabbi A. I. HaCohen Kook, who issued an appeal recently on behalf of the men.
The Agudath Israel members of the community, ultra orthodox group, and the Mizrachi, orthodox Zionists, voted for the resolution.
