The political committee of the World Zionist Organization will meet in London in the middle of June to consider among other things the advisability of calling an early World Zionist Congress. While the regular seventeenth Congress is not due until 1931 there have been reports that as a result of the present situation in Palestine and due to the demands from various Zionist groups a special Zionist Congress would be called this Summer.
No definite date has yet been set for the session of the political committee and no decision will be made as to a special Zionist Congress pending the session of the political committee. The Zionist Executive here today denied the rumor that the Actions Committee of the Zionist Organization had been convened for June 4.
