7i I F. KARLSBAD ZIONIST CONGRESS VOTES CONFIDENCE IN ADMINISTRATION OF WEIZMANN AND SOKOLOW BY 146.67 (Concluded from page 1.) Declaration it is beaus° there is an constant attempt to wreck our united leadership. The Left and the Right are fighting over the Kashruth ques- tion, and clear issues are made un- clear. The American Jews expected that from this Congress a message would go out that the Zionist Organi- zation is ready to accept all Jews who are ready to aid in the up-building of Palestine. Such a course will strength- en the Zionist authority; a contrary course will discourage it. American Zionists do not fear new elements. Coalition governments are being formed everywhere. If we find it is impossible to cooperate with the men we desire to join us, we will return again to the Zionist party. The Amer- icans, too, are anxious to see a World Congress, but years are necessary for its preparation. The extension of the Agency means a gradual World Con- gress."

The fourth article of the Palestine Mandate, which recog- NAME nizes the Zionixt Organization as the Agency and directs it to invite all ADDRESS forces willing to help in the upbuild- ing of the Jewish Palestine, was the chief object for attack, he said.

The first indication of the clash was given when Dr. Richard Lichtheim of Berlin, himself a member of the Ex- ecutive Committee, attacked the lead- erahip of Dr. Weizmann and Nahum Sokolow in a report he presented of the Organization's activities. Dr. Lichtheim many times departed from his official report to launch forth into criticism of his colleagues "for the many things that were left un- done." Leo Motzkin of Paris, one of the vice-preaidents who was in the chair, was forced to call him to order several times. The criticisms were not unexpected, as Dr. Lichtheim, Dr. Sokoweitcheck of Lithuana, and M. Ussishkin of Pal- estine had warned in advance that they would attack the present Admin- istration. Another incident that occasioned ex- we had them. Following Dr. Weizmann's plea, a citement occurred when Dr. S.

"Gruen- haunt's chauvinism against other Jews ' and my confidence in them. Elect the systems and elect the people who will execute that system. I will bow to the decision of the Congress." Mr. Sokolow's speech, which Dr. Weizmann said he intended merely to supplement, was also an answer to Deputy Gruenbaum. While the I'alestine situation was , serious, Sokolow said, it was untrue to state that the Zionist Executive hail nothing but failures to report. The charges that the Zionist lead- ers had been humble in their stand before the world was repudiated. "It is untrue we have been too humble. On the contrary, we have always worthily defended Zionist rights, but the relationship of the populations of Palestine becomes a strong argument against us," "We cannot argue that we derive our strength from the 'Volksmasse' because," he said, "the Je ws hitherto had been disunited, a breach in the „Jewish position which could only be remedied by the creation of a Jewish Agency, which should speak for all factions. President Harding noticed this, telling me the Jews were divided on this question, one rabbi favoring it and another being against it," Mr. Sokolow declared. "I endorse Deputy Gruenbaum's speech but cannot understand the tone of tragedy that precedes it. We have no intention to forget the democracy of the movement. "The Congress," he declared, "was divided between Zionists and 'Veto ' Zionists,'" causing the first hearty laugh at this Congress. "I personally," he concluded, "stand for strengthening the movement by introducing the representatives of other organizations who will work for the cause. Who will dare oppose the extention plan?" he concluded, chal- lenging the Opposition Group. Acknowledgment of the assistance rendered by the Zionists of America towards the development of Palestine is contained in the message froM Sir Herbert Samuel, British HighCom. missioner for Palestine, who is rest- ing in Italy. "I send you my greetings and hest wishes," Sir Herbert writes. "The assistance rendered to the develop- ment of Palestine during the year, from America especially, but els, from elsewhere, in no small degree fostered the progress of the Jewish National Home and of the country in general. But it must be remembered that continued effort is imperatively needed. With faith in your purpose and energy in its pursuit, and with moderation and conciliation in your methods, you may be sure that suc- cess will attend you, Cu the lasting ad- vantage of the Jewish people and all sections of the inhabitants of Pales- tine."
