The Constitutional Commission of the Seym has accepted Deputy Rotenstreich, who has been appointed by the Club of Jewish Deputies, as a member of the Commission with advisory powers, but without a vote, similarly to other members of the Club of Jewish Deputies on other Commissions where they have been given this privilege, though the Club having less than the minimum membership of ten is not entitled to participate in the work of the Commissions.

The Constitutional Commission has at the same time invited Deputy Rabbi Levin, the Agudist representative who supports the Government, to become a member of the Commission.

Deputy Gruenbaum, who was to have been the representative of the Club of Jewish Deputies on the Commission, which refused to concede the privilege to him, however, has been appointed a member of the Commission by the Club of National Minorities, so that the Constitutional Commission, hither to without a Jewish representative, now has three, each standing for a different and mutually antagonistic policy.
