Summary/Abstract: The presented memorandum, prepared by the Aliyah Department of the European Office of the World Confederation of General Zionists, concerns the activities of the Aliyah Department during the period between April 15 and November 15, 1947. The document comes from the collections of the Central Zionist Archives in Jerusalem. The report is an important source for research on Aliyah Bet, because it presents the point of view of a party that did not play the key role in this project and criticised the way of organization of Aliyah Bet by the Mossad le-Aliyah Bet.
