Palestine Development Plan Not Helpful Unless It Facilitates Jewish Colonisation Mr. Glickson Editor

The Palestine development plan is not helpful unless it facilitates Jewish colonisation in Palestine, Mr. Glickson, the editor of the Hebrew daily “Haaretz” declared at a pre-Congress Convention of the Palestine General Zionists, which is being held at Tel Aviv. The Zionist movement depends on the Jewish forces, he said, and it is impossible to be continuously battling with Great Britain.

Mr. M. M. Ussischkin, the head of the Jewish National Fund, spoke for about an hour and a half, subjecting the political tendencies of the Weizmann leadership since 1920 to a critical analysis.

The tenor of most of the speeches, Mr. Esterman said, shows that a solution seems near when Dr. Weizmann quits, but at the last moment the Congress at Basle will see that Dr. Weizmann is the only man having a sense of responsibility to shoulder the burden which the others will reject.
