(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
The controversy over the political results of the Polish Jewish agreement carried on for the last few months within the Polish Jewish community, was ended yesterday when a verdict was issued by the Polish Zionist Party Court.
A resolution adopted several months ago by the local committee of the Warsaw Zionists declared that “the form in which the Polish Jewish agreement was drafted was an insult to the honor of the Jewish people.”
Dr. Osias Thon who, with Dr. Leon Reich, were the negotiators of the agreement, both affiliated with the Zionist Organization of Poland, submitted a complaint against the authors of the resolution to the Party Court of the Zionists. The verdict issued by the court following deliberations which lasted for eight weeks, declared that the agreement, as well as the political declaration attached to it, contained no insult to the Jewish people.
