J adopted a resolution in part as fol-
lows:
I "That while we appreciate to the
J fullest extent the services rendered
to -our cause by present officers of
i the administration, we regard it,
J however, as our duty to state that
the course of action pursued by the
J present administration constituted a
J violation of the discipline of the or-
ganization, fraught with danger t
. its integrity and contrary to the
highest interest' of the Zionist movo-
ment at this time; and we, therefor;,
t regretfully express our disapproval
"thereof."
Judge Mack then assured the uelc- y
gates that he and the others who re
signed with him would remain in the
