Others who have enrolled are Herman Bernstein, Mrs. Irma Lindheim, Norvin R. land-heim, Mrs. J. C. Guggenheimer, Louis Lipsky, Miss Henrietta Szold, Mrs. Archibald Silverman of Providence R. I.
The National Life Membership Committee, chosen by the Administrative Committee of the Zionist Organization of America, consists of Lawrence Berenson, chairman, Isaac Merter and Philip Wattenberg. Zionist Districts throughout the country are reported working through special committees for the enrollment of life members. The full quota of 2000 life members, at $100 each, is expected to be secured before September 15.
