American Jews are overwhelmingly opposed to interference in the internal affairs of Israel by Zionists living outside, according to the results of a public opinion poll conducted by Dorot Zion, a branch of the Labor Zionist Organization of America.

The results of the poll, made public here today, reveal that 86.9 percent of all persons who expressed an opinion endorsed Premier David Ben Gurion’s position on this issue, while 13.1 percent opposed it. The sampling was taken in various places throughout this city and its suburbs. The affiliations of the poll takers were not revealed.
