Zionist Chiefs

The two great factions of U. S. Zionism, those following Louis Lipsky and those following Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis of the U. S. Supreme Court, made peace early this month (TIME, July 7, 14). They agreed on an Administrative Committee of 18 to govern the Zionist Organization of America. Last week the Committee assigned duties to 14 of its members.

Robert Szold, 40, becomes Chairman of the Administrative Committee, and so the actual head of U. S. Zionism. A brilliant Manhattan lawyer, he was (1914-15) Assistant Attorney-General of Porto Rico, assistant (1915-18) to Solicitor General John William Davis. Mrs. Szold (Zip S. Falk of Savannah) is a member of Bryn Mawr's summer school administrative committee, is President of Hadassah women s Zionist organization.
