Prior to his departure from Poland, Berl Locker, Laborite member of the World Zionist Executive, declared that about a million Shekolim have been disposed of this year for the World Zionist Congress.
Of this number, close to 150,000 Shekolim were sold in America, and Palestine accounted for about 110,000.
