remain Zionist leaders and those
in l'alestine expressed satisfaction
with the results of the Non-Zion-
ist Conference on Palestine in con-
gratulatory messages cabled to Dr.
Chaim Weizmann.
"Congratulations. It is a splen-

are delighted," was the message of
Miss Ilenrietta Szold, American
member of the Jerusalem Zionist
Executive and Col. Frederick H.

read, "Sincerest congratulations."

Palestine Press Satisfied.
LONDON.--1.1. T. A.) —Des-

patches from Jerusalem quote the
Palestine press as unanimous in
its satisfaction with the results of
the Non-Zionist Conference on Pal-
estine held in New York Sunday,
Oct. 21, which resulted in the ac-
cord between Zionists and non-
Zionists to sink their differences
for the creation of a united Jew-
ish Agency for the upbuilding of
l'alestine.
The Hebrew newspapers inter-
pret the event as "significant vic-
tory for the Zionist movement."
Favorable comment is made in the
editorials on the decision of the
conference to empower the commit-
tee of seven to adjust the differ-
ences between the Zionists and non-
Zionists insofar as the recommen-
dations of the Joint Palestine Sur-
vey ( ommission are concerned.
The hope is expressed that in the
adjustment the views given ex-
pression to in the resolutions of
the Zionist General Council at its
Berlin session will be fully con-
sidered. The newspapers further
express their hope that after "en-
thusiastic words deeds will fol-

The Juedisehe Itundschau, Ber-

lin organ of the German Zionists,
in publishing the Jewish Tele-
graphic Agency despatches from
New York, headed the report with
"Splendid proceedings at Marshall
Conference." The newspaper de-
clares that the outcome of the Non-
Zionist Conference in New York
Was a grand demonstration for the
Jewish National Home, as well as
for the ideal of unity in Jewish
life. The differences with regard
to the recommendations of the
Joint Palestine Survey Commis-
sion which have arisen because of
the decisions of the Zionist General
Council will be smoothed out, in
favor of the common work. "Now
NW are entitled to hope that a new
end great turn in the Palestine
work and perhaps a new epoch in
Jewish development will follow."
Leaders of the Zionist opposi-
tion groups in Europe have de-
clined to comment on the outcome
of the Non-Zionist Conference in
New York relative to the forma-

present moment en y criticism
voiced will not be of a construc-

The London Jewish Chronicle,

which was consistently opposed
for the extension of the Jewish
Agency, publishes in its current
issue a leading editorial in which
the regalia of the Non-Zionist Con-
ference are sharply criticized.
The outcome of the conference
is welcomed by the lia Olam, of-
