CALLED 'OLIGARCHS'

Five presidents of Zionist re-
gions In New York, branded the
Progressive Zionists as "dissi-
dents" and "oligarchs." They said:
"We had all hoped that at a
time such as this, when Israel is
still confronted by formidable foes
on Its ancestral soil, all Zionists
and friends of the Jewish Home-
land would sink their differences in
the Interest of the common cause.
"For the Committee for Pro-
gressive Zionism publicly to launch
an attack on the duly constituted
authority of the ZOA Is to be guil-
ty of a breach of the Jewish front
which the Jews of America will
not soon forget.
