Jewish Agency Treasurer
,eon Dulzin, who is acting
,airman of the Agency/
VZO, has announced he will
fight for the posts. Dulzin
emoved himself from the
contest in 1973 in deference
to Sapir.
Observers here believe
that if Dulzin, who is head
of the Liberal Party,
should win, then Moshe
Rivlin, the Jewish Agen-
cy's director general and a
member of the Labor
Party, would be named
treasurer.
The time and format for
electing a new chairman has
not been set yet. The Zionist
General Council is due to
meet in January and theo-
retically it could elect a new
WZO chairman who would
then be elected Jewish
Agency chairman. Both
posts have traditionally
been held by the same man.
