The Executive Committee of the world Poale Zion organization today announced the decision of the organization to decline the invitation to participate in the world Jewish conference in Geneva on August 14th.
The refusal is dictated by the view of the organization that neither democratic representations nor principles are insured and no definite program has been arranged as yet.
Despite the decision of the world body, a number of Poale Zion leaders, such as Baruch Zuckerman of New York and Josef Sprinzak of Palestine will attend the conferences as representatives of other organizations. Mr. Zuckerman will represent the American Jewish Congress and Mr. Sprinzak the Palestine Jewish National Council.
