- 1919 - Despite the constant Zionist activity in Glasgow and the presence of the Scottish Zionist Council as an umbrella organisation as well as the Jewish National Institute as a cultural and organisational centre there was no single powerful society to speak for Zionism within the community. The activities of the Bnei Zion had lapsed during the War and the attempts to revive it with Samuel Grasse as Chairman in January 1919 did not prove successful. Accordingly, a further meeting was held in the Jewish National Institute building in Elgin Street in November 1919.4 On this occasion the Glasgow Zionist Association was founded with Sam Lipsey as Chairman, Joe Sachs as Vice-Chairman and a committee of 30 members. Despite this weakness in the Zionist Association the functioning of the Institute as a communal centre continued to flourish.[4]
