Says U. S.. England, Russia Concerned have to go to Palestine. It does not mean that Zionists will be legally and politically tied with the Jewish Commonwealth in Palestine. But it does mean the realization of Zionism as a nec- essity for the survival of the Jews as a people—and not only of those who will go to Pales- tine." Dr. Stephen S. Wise, chair- man of the Emergency Commit- tee, who presided said that the conference had been called "in order that unity, which is an- ether name for understanding nd comradeship translated into effective cooperation, may obtain in the councils of the Zionist movement. We meet together in order that all American Zionists, irrespective of party affiliation, place the cause of Zionism above party sectarianism." Other sneakers included Judge Louis F.

Dr. Weizmann 'emphasized that the United States, England and Russia "have a stake in the progressive and orderly develop- ment of the Near East. At the juncture of three continents, as a bridge linking east and west, and standing guard, as it has always stood, over the route from Europe to India, Palestine can play a peculiarly significant part in the reconstruction of the post-war world." Declaring that the "moderniz- ation and progressive develop- ment cannot be carried out in an impel ialistic way," he stressed that "it can be done by a wes- ternizing and modernizing grou p which feels that its security, its welfare and its destiny are tied (Continued from Page 1) up with the security, welfare and destiny of the Arab people." urer; Thelma Jane Prince, sec- Pleading for an understand- retary. ing "among the Jews them- The graduates of the 1942 selves," Dr. Weizmann con- class are as follows : Robert Neal cluded "The question for us is: Canvasser, Ned Ira Chalat, Ce- Can we, by a joint effort of the cilia Gertrude Cowan, Leah Hope will and the intelligence, bring to Davidson, Harriet Millicent Ger- the notice of the American, the man, Martin R.
