gees.

among the Palestine refugees
than that of most other people
in the area, the report said. It

countries only Jordan is trying
to absorb some of the Palestine

sorb all the Arab refugees from
Palestine but is not showing any
inclination to do so, the report
stated.

NEW YORK, (AJP)—A con-
ference of Zionist leaders to
draft Ezra Shapiro, Cleveland
attorney, to run for ZOA presi-
dent, and to draw up a program
which will spark the develop-
ment of new vigor in the Ameri-
can Zionist movement was call-
ed by the Committee for Re-
vitalization of the ZOA. Chair-
man of the Committee is Dewey
D. Stone, ZOA vice president, of
Boston. Jacob M. Alkow, presi-
dent of the Southern Pacific
Zionist Region, and Rudolph
Sonneborn, of New York, also a
ZOA vice president, are co-
chairmen.
In an exclusive interview with
the American Jewish Press, Mr.
Alkow declared that only if the
revitalization program is adopt--
ed will Mr. Shapiro be a candi-
date. He stressed the fact that
if Mr. Shapiro is elected presi-
dent of the ZOA he will be able
to call upon a number of promi-
nent Zionists to take an active
role in the implementation of
this revitalization program.
The conference will be ad-
dressed by Dr. Nahum Goldmann,
Ezra Shapiro, Louis Lipsky, Ru-
dolf Sonneborn, Dewey Stone,
and other members of the com-
mittee.
The program which the Com-
mittee will draw up will em-
phasize the non-affiliation of
the ZOA with any Israeli politi-
cal party. Other aspects of the
program will deal with Halut-
ziut, organizational co-ordina-
tion. and intensified economic
relationship with Israel.
