The conference of world Jewish organizations to protest against Communist anti-Semitism will open here on March 10 and will last three days, it was learned today.

The opening session will be devoted to major addresses by various Jewish leaders, after which a steering committee will be appointed to decide upon action by the conference. When the steering committee completes its task it will report back directly to the full conference.

It was also learned that there would be no formal meetings of the Zionist Actions Committee held after the international Jewish parley ends. However, there will undoubtedly be informal meetings of those world Zionist leaders who attend the primary conference.

(Berl Locker, chairman of the Jewish Agency executive in Jerusalem, left New York today for Israel to complete plans to send an Israel delegation to the Zurich conference, Mr. Locker and Dr. Nahum Goldmann signed the invitations to Jewish organizations in various countries to participate in the Zurich parley.)
