This demonstrates that it is a
"fallacy" to assume that -a Zionist
territorial federation would have a
g reater appeal to unaffiliated
American Jews than the existing
Zionist organizations, the resolu-
tion says.
The ZOA resolution confirms
its readiness to "cooperate with
and participate in the coordina-
tion of Zionist efforts"—as long
as the independence and individ-
uality of its own programs are
not prejudiced. The resolution also

The resolution adds that the

it has been channeled into work

to quicken and intensify ZOA pro-

In a statement released to the
JTA, Rabbi Miller said the World
Zionist Congress, which met in
Jerusalem last month, made it
absolutely clear that the Zionist
Federation in each country "is the
