American Arbitration Assn.
Will Conduct AZF Election

NEW YORK (JTA)—The Ameri-
can Arbitration Association has
been designated by the American
Zionist Federation to conduct a na-
tionwide postal election of Amer-
ican delegates to the World Zionist
Congress, to be held in Jerusalem
next January, it was announced
by Rabbi Israel Miller, president
of the AZF.
"The 700,000 enrolled members
of the American Zionist movement
will each receive a ballot by mail
from the American Arbitration As-
sociation in mid-November," Rabbi
Miller said.
"The American Zionist Federa-
tion election committee has worked
out detailed procedures in con-
sultation with the American Arbi-
tration Association on the basis
of its long experience in conducting
elections for a wide variety of pro-
fessional associations, unions and
other voluntary organizations,"
Rabbi Miller continued.
The vote will elect the ma-
jority of the 152 delegates from
the United States, with the -bal-
ance to be elected by the con-
stitnent organiiatiOns of -the -
Ainerican Zionist Federation on
the basis of their verified
strength.

-

Rabbi Miller also pointed out
that any 500 members of the' Zion-
ist movement will be entitled to
nominate their own , slate in the
same manner 'that the constituent
organizations of the AZF
se-
lect slates for the nationwide
postal election.
Rabbi Miller declined to com-
ment on the controversy within the
AZF on the 'election, except to
say that the controversy is "now
before the tribunal of the World
Zionist Congress under the distin-
guished chairmanship of Israel
Supreme Court Justice Moshe
Landau. Therefore, no further
comment on this matter would be
appropriate except to stress that
the tribunal has not ordered any
suspension of preparation for the
elections."
In its appeal, the Zionist "Or=
ganization of America- is charging
that' the election plan Was-. .the
produet of a secret agreeinent

sah, the United Labor Zionist Or-
ganization of Atherican - and the

delegates. -
