...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...
Zionism gave the long distance telephone operators at Chatham, Mass., an unusual amount of switchboard plugging last week. Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis of the U. S. Supreme Court had just established himself in his summer home there, on the eve of the Zionist Organization of America's convention in Cleveland. The delegates at Cleveland were pondering and discussing his offer to return to active Zionism with his cohorts if the current regime headed by Louis Lipsky were ousted (TIME, July...

A. from 1918 to 1921 (when U. S. Zionists, displeased with his principles, ousted him and his whole group from their organization). Now he wanted to oust the Lipsky group...
There are two schools of Zionist economics. The school led by Chaim Weizmann, 55, and Louis Lipsky, 53 would send Jews to Palestine and there create work for them. The genesis of this school is in sentiment-to help Jews escape from poverty as well as political discrimination. Louis Dembitz Brandeis, 73, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, heads the other school. He would create jobs in Palestine. Then let Jews migrate and find the jobs. This is rationalistic, the sort of plan one might expect from a Jew who is almost a Boston Brahmin...
