S. African, Argentine
Bodies Agree to Send
Zionist 'Congressmen 9

_ JOHANNESBURG, (JTA) —
The South African Jewish Board
of Deputies voted to accept the
invitation from Dr. Nahum Gold-
mann, president of the World'
-Zionist Organization,, to send fra-
ternal delegates to the forthcom-
ing 25th World Zionist Congress;
The deputies Opted to send two
fraternal delegates.
Twelve full delegates will rep-
resent the South -African Zionist
organization - at the Congress,
Which convenes Dec. 27. Edel
Horwitz, chairman of the South
African Zionist Organization, one
of the delegates, left for London
on a visit to precede his trip to
Jerusalem to attend the Congress.
Meanwhile, in Buenos Aires,
the six parties affiliated with the
Argentine Zionist Organization
who had earlier threatened not
to attend the World Zionist Con-
gress announced that they had
changed their position and would
attend.
The announcement, which was
made by Nachman Radzichovsky,
president of the Argentine Zion-
ist Organization, followed a com-
promise agreement between the
World Zionist executive in Jeru-
salem and the six partiels, who
had claimed that they represent-
ed 85 percent of Argentine
Zionists.
The Argentine General Zion-
sts, who disputed this claim, had
• earlier rejected an agreement
signed by the six parties, for the
allotment of seats at the Congress.

Col. Meinertzhagen's 'Middle East
Diary' Exposes Britain's Blunders
m Mandatory Government Period

One of the most exciting books
about Palestinian Jewry's battle
for justice and Great Britain's
interference with their basic
rights as human beings in the
land which was pledged to them
as the Jewish National Home is
the volume "Middle East Diary,
1917-1956," written by an Eng-
an, Col. Richard Meinertz-
It has been published by
Yoseloff (11 E. 36th,
)•
there are many wild
ents in the book, and
a few inconsistent refer-
ees to the personalities with
whom the 82-year-old author has
come in contact, there are some
revelations that will shock the
sensibilities of libertarians and
justice-seeking people even now,
13 years after the British Man-
date_ over Palestine has been
scrapped.

Among the truly fantastic
revelations in the book is the
story Col. Meinertzhagen tells
about Clemenceau. Under date
of June 14, 1919, recorded in
Paris, he writes: "Weizmann
tells me that he met Clemen-
ceau with a view to enlisting
his sympathy with the National
Home, that he found him un-
sympathetic and remarked 'We
Christians can never forgive
the Jews for crucifying Christ,'
to which Weizmann remarked
`Monsieur Clemenceau, you
know perfectly well that if
Jesus of Nazareth were to
apply for a visa to enter
France, it would be refused on
the ground that he was a po-
litical agitator'."

In November of 1919, report-
ing on the Paris Peace Confer-
ence, Col. Meinertzhagen wrote:
"In Paris, I repeatedly stressed
the importance of the whole of
the Jordan catchment-area re-
maining -in Palestine, but French'
opposition, headed by Clemen-
ceau, was adamant, and, by
order of Lloyd George, the sub-
ject was shelved for the mo-
ment."
Thus, there is evidence that
even from some of the erstwhile
friends of the Zionist movement
there was frequent interference
