Despite the general progress of the Jews in Palestine, the number of Jewish officials in the government has greatly declined, Prof. Selig Brodetsky stated yesterday at a press conference. The Jewish part in the government budget has also declined, Prof. Brodetsky said.

Nahum Sokolow, president of the World Zionist Organization, addressing the press conference, declared that he is satisfied with the outcome of the Zionist Actions Committee session, despite the fact that it did not bring peace into the Zionist Organization.

Prof. Brodetsky emphasized the damage the Zionist Organization may suffer if the Revisionists conduct independent political activities. He called all parties to political responsibility. The conference was also addressed by Berl Locker, who stated that the Revisionists can participate in the Zionist Congress only if they will agree in advance to submit to Zionist discipline.
