,LE8TINE'S promising future 1
Pi unMimj i uiuoiuiu in at iiiu uv
I ginning of a new era. And al
I though there are many difficul
ties In plain sight, this new era
Is promising.
"The vlnw of Jerusalem as
one leaves tho Garden of Geth
scmnne draws the heurt with
Hympathy," writes William D.
McCrncken In Asia. "The walls
rise severely above bare slopes
where nothing grows",, for It Is
outside tho city proper that bibli
cal prophecies of the desolation
of Jerusalem seem to be fulfilled.
"Today the city stands midway between the hor
rors of the Turkish reglm6 and the promised good
of tho British mandatory rule Nothing has been
Idone as yet in n public way to beautify the city.
INbrth and weHt the houses strugglo outside tho
jwalls; on the south forbidding slopes border the
jroad to Bethlehem; and on tho cast lies the ter
irlblo valley of Jehoshaphnt a valley of dry bones.
"Seventeen times destroyed bitterly hated
ionxtously sought how desperate a history since
Nebuchadnezzar captured it more than twenty-live
centuries ago.
"Iledeemed today, but In her nakedness, Jerusa-
em waits to bo clothed. She has as yet no grace,
o covering for her ugly wounds. Borne day her
Ides will glisten with the brightness of a heaven-
y radiance ; slio will bo washed and anointed like
a brldo waiting for tho bridegroom."
Tho prophetic part of this is written, of course,
Jin Oriental imagery. Sir Herbert Samuel, the Brit
ish high commissioner, puts tho situation In plain
'English and says, In his report to parliament:
"Undeveloped and underpopulated, Palestine has
possibilities of far more prosperity than tho stand
ard attained before tho war."
And Palestine's future is the concern of half tho
(World. Christian, Jow and Moslem see In Kales
itlno a holy land. It Is n most Interesting situa
tion that is being worked out under our very eyes.
It Is an obvious chnnco for tho punster; Palestine
Is Indeed tho "Promised Land." To whom Is It
promised? That Is what Jew, Arab and Christian
In Palcstlno aro asking of tho British government
(Tho British government replies that under tho
imundato thero will bo complete freedom and equal
ilty for all religions and equal justlco for all, re
gardless of roltgton, ruco or position.
Sir Herbert's report to parliament makes Inter
esting reading, some of which must be done be
tween tho lines, Concerning the policy followed
under tho mnndato ho says:
"The policy of Ills Majesty's British govern
ment contemplates the satisfaction of the
legitimate aspirations of tho Jowlsh rnco through
out tho world In rclntton to Palestine, combined
with u full protection of tho rights of tho existing
population.
"For my own part I am convinced thnt tho means
jenn bo found to effect this combination. The Zlon
Ism that is practicable Is tho Zionism that fulfills
'this essential condition.
"It Is tho clear duty of the mandatory power to
.promote the well-being of tho Arnb population, In
'the samo way as a llritlbh administration would
tregnrd It as Its duty to promote tho welfare of
(the local population In any part of our empire
iTho measures to foster the well-being of the Arabs
'should bo precisely those which we should adopt
lln Palestine If there were no Zionist question, and
If thero had been no Balfour declaration.
There Is in this policy nothing Incompatible with
reasonable Zionist aspirations.
"On the contrary, If the growth of Jewish In
fluence were accompanied by And) degradation,
or even by a neglect to promote Arab advance
ment, It would fall In one of Its essential pur
poses. "Tho grlevnnco of the Arab would be a discredit
to the Jew, and In the result the moral lulluenco
of Zionism would be gravely Impaired.
"Simultaneously thero must be satisfaction of
that sentiment regarding Pnlestlnc a worthy and
ennobling sentiment which, In Increasing degree,
animates tho Jewries of thu world.
"Tho aspirations of these 1-1,000,000 of people
also have u right to be considered. They ask
for tho opportunity to establish n "homo" In tho
land which was tlie political and has alwayB been
tho religious center of Iholr race. They ask that
this home should possess national characteristics
In Iungunge and customs, In intellectual inter
ests, In religious and political Institutions.
"This Is not to lay that Jewish Immigration Is
tp Involvo Arnb emigration, that tho greater pros
perity of the country, through tho development of
Jewish enterprises, Is to bo nt tho expense, nnd
not to tht) benefit of tho Arabs, thut tho use of
Hebrew islo imply the disappearance of Arabic,
'that tho establishment of elected councils in the
Jewish' community for the control qt If affairs Is
!to Uo followed by the subjection of the Arabs to
tho rule of those councils. .
In n word, tho degreo to which JtswlaU.natlonal
.aspirations can be fulfilled In Palestine ts coudl-
tloncd by tho rights of
prosent inhabitants.
Theso have been the
principles which havo
guided the policy of my
administration.
"It Is the policy 6f tho
administration to con
tinue, wherever possible, to apply tho Turkish laws,
to which tho peoplo aro nccustomod. Changes are
made only when they aro indispensable. Effi
ciency is essential to "good government, but there
Is a point where efllclency may becomo harassing.
Tho danger of passing that point is foreseen.
"Tho many faiths and sects which And in the
Holy Land their origin or their inspiration are
frco to maintain their teachers nnd pastors, and to
practice their cults, without let or hindrance. In
tho controversies that occasionally arlso between
them tho policy of th'o administration hns been
strictly to maintain tho status quo."
Nevertheless, nntlvo Christians and Moslems are
appealing to tho British government not to put
Into effect tho Balfour declaration, because, they
say, the Zionists wish "to evict nnd dispossess tho
Arab population of Palestine." Tho Balfour dec
laration, Issued In November, 1017, approves "the
establishment In Palestine of a national home for
tho Jewish people," and states that tho British gov
ernment will use their best endeavors to facili
tate this object, while ut the samo time reserving
to all non-Jewish communities their full civil and
religious rights.
Tho Zionists ussuro tho nntlvo peoples that their
fears aro groundless, "Our policy In regard to tho
Arabs, as in regard to all our problems, la clear
and straightforward," said Dr. Chalm Welzmann,
president, In his nddress to tho Twelfth Zionist
congress, recently held at Carlsbad. lie declares,
furthermore:
"Wo lntvnil to abate no Jot of tho rights guar
anteed us by tho Balfour declaration, nnd recog
nition of that fact by tho Arabs Is an essential
preliminary to tho establishment of satisfactory
relations between Jew and Arab. Their temporary
refusal to recognize that fact compels us to glvo
thought to tho means by which we enn best safe
guard our Ylshub against aggression. Self-protection
Is an elemental duty. But we proclaim
most solemnly and unequivocally that wo havo
In our own hearts no thought of nggresslon, no In
tention of trespassing on tho legltimnto rights of
our neighbors. We look forward to a future In
which Jew and Arab will live side by sldo In Pales
tine, and work conjointly for tho prosperity of the
country. Nothing will stand In tho way of such
u future, when once our neighbors rcallzo that our
rights aie as botlous a matter to us as their rights
nre to them."
That there are troubles of many kinds Is evi
dent from the report. Some of theso ure referred
to thus:
"Tho methods ,of nnrlculturo are, for the most
part, primitive; tho nrvn of land now cultivated
could yield a far greater product. Thero aro In
addition large cultivable areas that aro left un
titled. The summits nnd slopes of tho hills aro
admirably suited to the growth of tho trees, but
there are uo forests. Some Industries havo been
killed by Turkish laws; none has been encouraged;
the markets of Palestine and of tho neighboring
countries nre supplied almost wholly from Europe.
"The senborno commerce, such as It 1b, is load
ed and discharged In tho open rondsteads of Jaffa
and Haifa; thero are no harbors.
"Tho country Is underpopulated because of this
lack of development. There nro now in tho whole
of Palestine hardly 700,000 people, a population
much less limn that of the Province of Galileo
aUmo In tho time of Christ.
"The long delay in tho formal settlement of the
International status of Palestine hns tended to dis
turb tho minds of tho people, Even moro serious
has been tho consequence that It has not been
possible to Issue a government loan. Without a
loan, many public works that would be ,dlrectly or
Indirectly remunerative, cannot bo executed.
"Tho financial conditions of eastern nnd central
Europe nnd Internal difficulties within the Zionist
organization In tho United States have prevented
the Zionist movement from providing ns yet any
largo sums for enterprises of development or coW
onlzntlon although, indeed, several land purchnsesl
havo been completed and many preparations mada
for the future. As n consequence while there
has beeu much pressure to admit Jewish Immi
grants there ha been comparatively little expan
sion In opportunities for employment.
"The agricultural development of the country,
nnd, Indeed, Its urban development nlso, are great
ly hampered by the condition of confusion Into
which the titles of ownership of lnnd were nllowed
to fall during the Turkish regime. There Is hero
a tanglo which will need years of patient effort to
unravel."
Of the total population of 700.000 the Jewish
element numbers 76,000, almost all of whom have
entered Palestine during the last forty years. Tho
success of tho Jewish agricultural colonies at
tracted tho eager Interest of the masses of the
Jewish peoplo scattered .throughout the world.
In many countries they were living under tho
pressure of laws or customs which cramped their
capacities and thwnrted their energies; they saw
in Pnle&tlno the prospect of a home In which they
might live nt ense.
Profoundly discontented, as numbers' of them
were, with n life of petty trndo In crowded cities,
they listened with ready ears to tho call of a
healthier and finer life as producers on the land.
Some among them, agriculturists already, saw In
Palestine tho prospect of n soil not less fertile,
nnd an environment far more free, thnn thoso to
which they were nccustomed.
Emigration of Jews to Palestine is Increasing
rapidly In central and eastern Europe, nnd tho new
Pnlestlnc Immigration regulations would allow
of a controlled Immigration of about 17,000 Zion
ists of tho pioneer class during the coming
year, said S. Landmnnn, secretary of tho Zionist
organization, in an Interview.
Mr. Landmnnn, who Is now In Vienna on a spe
cial mission In connection with Jowlsh emigrants
to Palestine, said tho selection of the emigrants
Is being inado by tho Zionist organization, which
has established Pnlestlno offices In tho Important
Jowlsh centers. Preference Is given to young peo
ple, strong in body and determined In spirit, who
havo had actual experience In agriculture or other
nnnunl work, nid who know Hebrew.
Several thousands of such pioneers known by
tho Hebrew name of Cballtzlm have already left,
and others are waiting In tho largo centers until
proper arrangements for their transport can bo
made and until now openings for employment In
Palcstlno nre reported.
One of tho features of tho pioneer movement
Is thnt It Includes a fnlr proportion of girls of well-to-do
families, who have decided to devote their
lives to the now Palestine. They njet as land girls
and tnkc caro of tho domestic arrangements In the
Jowlsh colonies.
Bovtewlng tho wholo field In "Zionism nnd World
Politics," Dr. Horace Moyer Kallen concludes that
at lenst tho cornerstone of tho future Zionist edi
fice has been laid. And Dr. Kallen believes that
this Is an event of profound nnd hopeful signifi
cance for tho Jewish race. Ho feels that tho
Jow has too long been compelled to chooso between
tho unwelcome alternatives of sinking his rich
cultural and splrltunl herltago In thoroughgoing
nsslmllntlon with tho Ufo of tho country In which
ho lives nnd of leading tho Btnrvcd, unhappy ex
istence of a suspected outcast, a roan with u doff
nlto racial consciousness but without a country.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from draggiati
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very aucceasful in overcoming
these conditions. Tho mild and healing
influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root ia
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

Gilbert Cnnnan ndmlts a misunder
standing of his pacifist attitude to

American edition of "Windmills," but
avows firmly thnt "tho attempt to re

with the only weapon I know how to
use the pen which they say la
mightier than the sword or even tho

this service before the outbreak of
the great war, which for mo began In
1911, I was not to bo diverted from
It by the panic confusion of those who
were overtaken by tho calamity rath

With a solemnity which Is grot
