The Zionist Organization of America, through its national executive, today unanimously approved a declaration by its president, Dr. Abba Hillel Silver, reaffirming the determination of American Zionists to support the continuance and strengthening of the American Jewish Conference. This declaration was issued in connection with the third session of the American Conference which convenes this week-end in Cleveland.
Stressing the grave problems which will confront the sessions of the American Jewish Conference in relation to the position of the Jews in Europe and the future status of Palestine, the declaration by Dr. Silver, in behalf of the national executive, characterized the conference as “an effective instrumentality of united American Jewry and as a living organism in the fight to safeguard Jewish rights.”
