T heir mood was one of indifference. The convention had proved a convention of intermissions instead of sessions, and they felt that am action, any decision was preferable to waiting. Lipsky called upon Robert Szold to read the letter from Branded Szold, apparently very much agitated made a bad job of it. He read the letttr without intonation. Nobody seemed t< sense that this document actually meant the return of Brandeis to the Zionist leadership regardless of the outcome of the convention. The delegates applauded listlessly.
