Your vote upholds the hands of the leaders of the Zionist movement

For Zion Parley
NEW YORK, (JTA)—Dr. S.
S. Wise, co-chairman of the
Ameridan Zionist Emerge n c y
Council, and a member of the
executive of the Jewish Agency.
announced that he would not ac-
cept nomination on the Zionist
Organilation of America slate
for the election of delegates to
the coming World Zionist Con-
gress.
"I have notified the adminis-
trative council of the Zionist Or-
ganization of America that I
would not be a candidate for
election on its slate or list," Dr.
Wise said.
"I cannot help regretting the
acrimony which has developed
prior to the election," he con-
tinued. "Every one of the four
Zionist organizations within the
Council embodies elements of
strength within the Zionist move-
ment. I see no reason for the
sharp and bitter electioneering
which is taking place. We are
dividing and morally disarming
ourselves in advance of the Con-
gress, to which the largest body
of world Zionists—the American
should go not in partisan spirit,
but united to achieve the Zion-
ist purpose, which is the estab-
lishment at the earliest possible
moment of the free and demo-
cratic - Jewish Commonwealth of
Palestine."

The ZOA has waged a powerful and successful campaign to win Amer-
icon public opinion for Zionism. Give your vote to the leadership which
has so ably represented the movement these many years.
4
The ZOA has one unswerving objective—the establishment of a free and
democratic Jewish Commonwealth. It is equipped in its numbers, its
leadership and its program to lead the Zionist movement to victory.
5
The ZOA stands above parties and is the only body which can unite the
movement outwardly and inwardly for the best interest of our • common
cause.
6
The ZOA has given ifs unstinted support to every measure and agency
designed to alleviate and protect the status of Jewish labor in Palestine.
7
The United States with 5,000,000 Jews is the largest Jewish community
in the world. As such, it should assume its rightful place of leadership in
the formulation of policies and decisions at the World Zionist Congress.
8
The Zionist Organization of America is the largest Zionist body in this
country, and is supported by the overwhelming majority of enrolled
Zionists. Its membership, including that of its youth groups, has grown from
25,000 to almost 200,000 in the past seven years.
General Zionists through the ZOA have shouldered the major portion
of the fund-raising program for the development of Palestine during
the past 45 years. They have carried the major burden of the movement in
general.
