Nathan Straus in Holy Land Directing
Working of Vast Importance to the
Country and Its People

Philanthropic work Of a new sort
which has been instituted in Palestine
through the generosity of Nathan
Straus has reached such proportions
that Mr.. Straus Is now in that coun-
try on a special mission to see how
he can further and enlarge the hui
manitarian projects to which he be-
gan to devote attention last year. Ac-
companied by Mrs. Straus and a
party of New York friends he left
his this on January 18th by the
Franconia and proceeded directly TO
Jerusalem. He will remain until May
and will spend the time in compre-
hensive study of the needs and pos
abilities of the two charitable enter
prises he has already established and
| in directing the formation of still a
third, of which he has the highest
hope.
The institutions which are already
in existence through Mr. Straus' ac-
tivities are known as the Nathan
Straus relief fund and the health bu-
reau. Tte first operates exclusively
amo1t& the poor of Jerusalem, while
the second extends over all of Pales-
tine and concerns some 100000 per-
sons. Now he proposes to introduce
the system which has been so sue
