A prominent speaker will address this meeting, and a musi- cal program will lie among the features. Committees to function (luring the ensuing term Will be appointed at that time. The Zionist Call. The call of the World Zionist • xecutive, made public to the lo- cal Zionists, reads in part: "The policy of transition and preparation approved by the 15th Congress is justified by its aim, i. e., a renewed Haluziuth and constructive work all along the line. This purpose, we confidently trust, will become increasingly evi- dent in due course. But to attain the object in view more exertion is essential to secure the means for greater productive expenditure. The total of our two main funds in the current years, the Keren Ilayesod and the Keren Kayemeth, while bearing eloquent witness to the financial strength of our move- ment, and to the possibilities that can be obtained through concen- trated endeavor, fall short. how- ever, of the necessities. We urge, therefore, every Zionist body and individual to demonstrate through their endeavor, the determination to make the new year a turning point in the national enterprise. Taking note of the emphatic declaration by the General Zionist Council as to the pre-eminence by the two funds, we appeal for greater self. sacrifice on the part of every Jew rid to contribute to that which, it should be realized, aims at the lib- eration and renaissance of the Jewish nationhood. United Front for Zion. "The preliminaries of establish- ing permanent co-operation with non-Zionist groups fur the up- building of Palestine are, it is hoped, to be completed in the course of the coming year. The reasons for the extension of the Jewish Agency, and its necessity have but gained in weight. and is better understood since the idea was first propounded. It is. in- deed, the chief achievement of the Berlin meeting that it united the General Council in the firm de- termination to continue along these lines. Our objective is to strength- en our political basis through the establishment of a great united Jewish Palestine front; to dissem- inate the Palestine Ideal among all sections of our people and to the acceleration of the reconstruction of a Jewish Palestine. Backed by on overwhelming Zionist majority, the Executive will pursue this goal with determination, in acordance with the policy of the supreme Zionist institutions." stumbled into the Herbert street station.

A.)— The entry and circulation of the Bulletin of the Jewish Telegraphic, Agency in any language has been prohibited in Rumania, according to the "Buletinul de Import-F.x- port" No. 24, which published the text of a circular issued by the General Direction of Customs No. 165,466. No reason was given for the prohibition. The circular states: On the ground of a com- munication from the police diret- tion and the general sigurantza, on the intervention of the Minis- try of Foreign Affairs, we ask you to prohibit the entry and circula- tion in this country of the Bulle- tins of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in any language. You will in consequence take all measures which you consider necessary. The circular is signed by Director Oh. T. Cristya and Chief of Service Vas. C. 1 rena. Jacob Landau, managing direc- tor of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, in commenting upon the dispatch of the order issued by the Rumanian authorities de- clared: Order a Complete Surprise. "The order of the Rumanian au- thorities comes as a complete sur- prise. The Jewish Telegraphic Agency at all times has been anx- ious to present the Jewish develop- ments in Rumania accurately and objectively. It has always striven to give both sides of the question and has in every circumstance demonstrated an earnest desire at fair reporting of the facts. "This was conclusively proven by the fact that despite the Jewish Telegraphic Agency being serious- ly impeded in the gathering of Jewish news in Rumania by the limitations imposed by the censor- ship which still exists there, the agency has at n11 times been ready to present the official point of view of the government, whenever it placed its own interpretation on the events. The files of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency service dis- close a great number of official Rumanian government statements, denials and counter-denials. Order Isolates Rumanian Jews. "The step of the Rumanian au- thorities is still more surprising in view of the fart that some time ago George Cretziano, Rumanian minister to the United States. when he heard that I might visit Rumania during my European trip, handed me a personally written letter in which he recommended me most warmly to Prince Dmitri Ghiki of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bucharest, at the same time 'raising most emphatically the farness of the Jewish Tele- groe/.‘• Agency Rendre. -rae action would be under- standable while not excusable if the Rumanian government had further tightened the censorship on Jewish news from Rumania, but the placing of an embargo on Jew- ish news from all over the world is indeed not only a puzzle, but seems rather a harsh and unjustifiable measure inflicted upon the Jews of Rumania, who are thus isolated from the stream of Jewish life everywhere." Leaders' Protests. In addition to the protest lodged by Col. Kisch, the action of the Jerusalem police was protested against by Dr. Judah L. Magness dean of the Ilebrew University, and Ben Zwi, labor leader. Following the protest by Col. Kisch, Acting High Commissioner 11. C. Luke pledged an investiga- tion of the entire affair. The Jewish National Council (Yawl was convened in extraordinary session to protest against the outrageous action of the police. The chief rabbis were Informed by the Acting High Commissioner that the incident was caused by a demand of Amin Husseini, chair- man of the Supreme Moslem Coun- cil and extreme Arab leader, con- cerning the position of the screen.
