Parley in Boston
NEW YORK. — Junior Ha-
dassah, the Young Women's
Zionist Organization of Ameri-
ca, has selected Boston, Mass.,
for its 18th annual convention,
which is to be held the .early
Thanksgiving week-end, from
Nov. 20 to 23, it was announced
this week at the national head-
quarters here. The choice was
the result of a referendum among
the 265 units of the organiza-
tion, who were asked not only
to designate an eastern city but
to indicate whether a summer
or a fall convention was desired.
This will be the first conven-
tion of Junior Hadassah in a
New England city, it was said.
Out of the 17 previous conven-
tions, 10 were held in the Mid-
dle West.
