ted to endanger the situation
which is serious enough as it is."
Similar was the effect of mess-
ages of Dr. Chaim Weizmann and
Judge Otto A. Rosalsky. "If peace
in Jewry in general is no essential
a factor in the fulfillment of our
highest aims, how much more es-
sential is it in our own ranks? We
require all our energies for the
accomplishment of the stupendous
task before us. Fur this reason we
hope that the remarkable demon-
stration of confidence and loyalty
that marked the recent celebration

of your president's (Louis Lip-

I completion of 25 years' devoted
Iservice to our cause, will be re-
sewed on the occasion of your con-

you have gained your present com-
manding position in our movement
and under his continued guidance
you will assuredly be able to ren-
der still more valuable contribu-

read.
In his message, Dr. Weizmann,

reviewing the present condition in
Palestine and in Zionism, referred
to mistakes that have been made.
"It is true, we have made mis-
takes, but let us learn the lessons
of past experience; let us but
amend our mistakes and multiply
our efforts, and we need not have
any doubt whatsoever that Eretz
Israel will fulfill all our hopes."
The interest of the delegates in
the reorganization question and
the possible return of Justice
Brandies to Zionist leadership was
intensified when action along these
