Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Louis Lipsky, president of the Zionist Organization of America, and Jacob Fishman, managing editor of the “Jewish Morning Journal,” are returning to the United States on the steamer Berengaria, which docks this morning. They were in Berlin to attend the sessions of the Zionist General Council, which ratified the Marshall-Weizmann agreement for the extension of the Jewish Agency.
A bulletin of the Free Synagogue announces that on Sunday, January 6, Dr. Wise will preach on “Battling for Jewish Ideals: My Experience in Berlin.” At the Berlin session Dr. Wise led a minority of five in opposition to the ratification of the agreement.
