Flag over the Jewish Agency building, Jerusalem 1938
A flag flies over the Jewish Agency building in Jerusalem as passers-by, some in Western and some in traditional dress, walk past the entrances to the various departments. Among those filmed here is also Chaim Weizmann, president of the Jewish Agency since 1929 and later Israel's first president, who at this time was mainly active at the Daniel Sieff Research Institute in Rehovot. The footage conveys the everyday workings of the Zionist umbrella organization in a city that in 1938 was also a center of religious, political and ethnic tension in the British Mandate territory.
