Schechtman, (1891–1970) , was a Zionist leader, an authority on population movements, and an author. Schechtman, who was born in Odessa, served in the all-Russian Jewish Congress convened in Petrograd (1917) and the Ukrainian National Assembly convened in Kiev (1918) . After leaving Russia in 1921, he became coeditor and later managing editor of Razsvyet (1922–32) , the organ of the Federation of Russian-Ukrainian Zionists, and subsequently the leading Revisionist weekly. Schechtman approved Jabotinsky's resignation from the Actions Committee of the World Zionist Organization in 1923, but disagreed with his concurrent resignation from the Zionist Organization itself. However, this partial support later became total when the two men took the lead in founding the World Union of Zionist Revisionists in Paris in 1925 which elected Jabotinsky its president.
