I am convinced that
the American people give their
support to this aim; and if re-
elee,ed I shall help to bring about
this realization."
Following his reading, of the
President's message, Senator
Wagner delivered an address hail-
ing the formation of the Jewish
Brigade and lauding the Jewish
achievements in Palestine. "It is
only fair and just," he declared,
"that you be given every oppor-
tunity to explore the possibili-
ties of Palestine as a major fac-
tor in the solution of the age-old
problem of the Jewish people.
The Jews have earned this meas-
ure of consideration not only be-
cause they were the first victim ,
of Hitler and the chief sufferers
of the Nazi regime, but also be-
cause the Jewish people, by their
constructive efforts • in Palestine
have made it possible to increa1 R , e

tine that 600,000 Jews have a

date, commitments which became
the pledged word of 52 nations
of the world in 1922, to the Jew-
ish people, Judge Levinthal de-
clared: "We have passed the
time for decision. We have
reached the time for decisive ac-
tion. If the new world that is
to emerge after victory is to be
not a spiritually bankrupt world
but a morally solvent world, the
pledged word of the civilized na-
tions concerning Palestine must
be completely fulfilled. Jewish
need forbids delay. The wo.•id's
conscience demands action."

It was the unanimous opinion
of the delegates attending the
convention that the President's
statement was the srongest and
most unequivocal ever made by
a Chief Executive in this country
on the Palestine question.
Dr. Abba Hillel Silver, co-
chairman of the Zionist Emer-
gency Committee, in a wire to
the White House expressing the
gratitude of "Zionists every-
where" for the "magnificent and
historic message," declared:
"Please accept my profound
appreciation and gratitude for
your magnificent and historic
statement read by Senator Wag-
ner today. Not only American
Jews, but Jews throughout the
world, will hail it with deepest
satisfaction as well as all people
of good will everywhere. It is in
keeping with your deep concern
for the rights of all people strug-
gling for freedom and a chance
to live free and normal lives in
the new world which you are
helping to fashion. This is an
historic day for us and we are,
I repeat, profoundly grateful."
In his address to the evening
session of the convention, Dr.
Abba Silver called the President's
message "a forthright, unequiv-
ocal endorsement. of the Zionist
program—a notable milestone in
the struggle which we have been
carrying on to secure public and
official recognition of Jewish as-
pirations with regard to Pales- Welles for a Jewish Palestine
