Palestinian Announces
Plans for Publication of
Album of Russian Zionism
A four-section volume com-
memorating the Zionist move-
ment in Russia is being readied
for publication by L. Zenziper
of Tel Aviv, Palestine.
The "Album of Russian Zion-
ism" will follow this pattern, ac-
cording to the editor: 1) the pe-
riod of "Hibbath Zion"; 2) 20
years of political Zionism (1897-
1917); 3) the zenith period (1917-
1918); and 4) the path of heroism
and suffering.
To insure an all-encompassing
survey, Zenziper is appealing to
*11 former Russian residents, par-
ticularly individuals who were
active in the Russian Zionist
movement, or their relatives, to
send him any available informa-
tion for the clubs. Letters, docu-
ments and pictures are sought
Anyone in possession of such
material is requested to commu-
nicate with Zenziper, at 15, Frug
Street (corner Frishman Street),
Tel Aviv, Palestine, to arrange
for its inclusion in the survey.
