The National Council of Jew ish Women pledges its support to the President of the United States nnd to our country’s delegation in London, for the consummation of a radical naval reduction.” At its recent Twelfth Triennial Convention in Los Angeles, the Na tional Council of Jewish Women adopted the following resolution, re newing its support of a policy of dis armament : “WHEREAS, The National Coun cil of Jewish Women has on its pro gram of work, the study and support of proportionate and gradual dis armament, and “WHEREAS, The Naval Confer ence, In London, is considering the reduction of naval armaments and the possible prevention of rivalry in naval building. “BE IT RESOLVED, That the Na tional Council of Jewish Women re affirms its support of its program of work for disarmament.” B’nai B’rith I Approximately 500 persons, includ ing 112 delegates, their families, and visitors, are expected to be present at the 13th Quinquennial Convention of the Independent Order B’nai B’rith, which will open in Cincinnati, the home city of the national headquar ters of the order, on April 27.
