The conference of collectivized Jewish farmers of White Russia ended here today after adopting a slogan, “Not a single collectivized Jewish farmer must stay away from the fields during Pesach.”
The conference also sent out a proclamation through the radio to all Jewish farmers of White Russia declaring that the foreign campaign for Passover supplies for Russian Jews was directed by the “Jewish bourgeoise and saboteurs” living abroad, in order to stir up a counter-revolution.
The chairmen of several of the Jewish collectivized farms assured the conference that, thanks to the methods adopted by the conference, even those Jewish farmers who observed the holiday last year will be found in the fields working this Passover.
