Forty world Jewish leaders will gather here Monday for a two-day meeting of the Jewish Agency’s Board of Governors, and heading the agenda will be the newly imposed exit fees for Soviet Jewish academicians. Max M. Fisher, the Detroit industrialist, will preside. The governors’ meeting will be preceded by a meeting of the Jewish Agency Executive and a meeting of the Budget and Fund-raising Committees. The sessions will mark the second anniversary of the re-constitution of the Jewish Agency.
