Bnai Brith Invites Representatives of Major
Jewish Organizations to Unity Conference

WASHINGTON. (WNS)—Bnai
Brith has invited representatives
of the major national Jewish
membership organizations in the
United States to a preliminary
conference at the William Penn
Hotel, Pittsburgh, Saturday eve-
ning, Jan. 23, and Sunday, Jan.
24, to consider what steps should
be taken to bring about some
agreement on the part of the
American Jewish community with
respect to the post-war status
of Jews and the upbuilding of
a Jewish Palestine.
Announcement of the confer-
ence was made here by Henry
Monsky, president of Bnai Brith,
who extended the invitation to
32 national membership organi-
zations. Each organization in-
vited was asked to designate
from one to three representatives
to the conference. In explaining
the purpose of the conference,
Mr. Monsky said: "American

Jewry, which will be required,
in large measure, to assume the
responsibility of representing the
interest of our people at the
Victory Peace Conference, must
be ready to voice the judgment
of American Jews, along with
that of the other Jewish commu-
nities of the free countries, with
respect to the post-war status of
Jews and the upbuilding of a
Jwish Palestine.
"Every thoughtful Jew inter-
ested in the present critical sit-
uation with which we are con-
fronted must be profoundly con-
cerned with the distressing con-
flicts which threaten to impede
concerted action. The purpose of
the conference is to bring to-
gether the representatives of ma-
jor national Jewish membership
organizations in order that they
may consider what steps should
be taken to bring about some
agreement on the part of the
American Jewish community."
