NEW YORK, (JTAI - ' The development of two separate instru¬ ments to assist Israel one, the Jewlah Agency In which Zlonista and non-Zlonlsta should carry joint responsibility for financial and economic assistance to the Jewlah State, and the other, a strong Zionist move¬ ment devoted exclusively to Zionist tasks was proposed here by Dr. Nahum Goldmann, chairman of the Jewish Agency, addressing the 55th annual convention of the Zionist Organization of America, rf Dr. Goldmann alao proposed a Congress of American Zionists rep¬ resenting "the strongest single force In American Jewish life."

Mayor Robinson, city officials and other notables attended the opening ceremoniea. The recording booths will be opened to men and women of all f aitha.
sAme time, he defined the relation ship bet^'een Israel and the Zioniat movement aa followa:
1. "There must be a genuine and full partnership between Zioniat movement and State of Israel In building the State and immobilizing the Jewlah people behind this ef¬ fort."
2. "No Zionist movement can work in opposition to the State and hope to ^uxvi^. We will try to in¬ fluence the leaders of the State, but on all maxters concerning Is¬ rael, it la thtjilr decision that must be final."
3. "On the otWr hand, it Is neces¬ sary that the SlsiiH__^(ii>pnratc with the Zionist movement, fully and In a spirit of unqualified good will. All it undertakes, in organized form, in Jewiah life outside Israel, must be done in consultation, coordina¬ tion with the Zioniat movement. On Internal Jewish matters, the State must entrust to the Zionist move-; ment the taalt of ironing out and reconciling conflicts and coordina¬ ting assistance to Israel."
However. Dr. Goldmann told the convention delegates that Zionism cannot orient itself exclusively to¬ wards Israel. "If Zionism wishes to becom<! the guiding force in Jew¬ ish life. It cannot orient Itself ex¬ clusively towards laraol," he de¬ clared. "It must con* crn Itself with all vital problems of Jewish life community organization, the He- brcwlzatioo of Jewry, etc." -
Dr. I'jmanuci Neumann, member of the Jewish Agency executive, called upon the Zionist Organiza¬ tion of AVnerica to proclaim Umong its primary aims increased private capital Investment In Israel and promotion of immigration to Israel of American Jewish professional and technical workers. "We should overcome," he said, "any lurking inhibition or timidity about the Idea of an American Aliyah but pro¬ claim It forthrlghtly as one of our eaaential aims and follow through on it. The Zionist movement which fajla to produce Aiiyah or Chalut zlut ceases to be Zionist."
