PHILADELPHIA, July 5.-The re-
organization of the financial basis
upon which The jewish work in Pales-
tine is founded was effected today at
the closing session of the Zionist or
ganization of America. Heretofore the
funds allotted for the maintenance of
the Ziouists work in Palestine have
been inadequate for the needs of the
various activities. and in an effort to
remove that handicap, a resolution
was adopted that is expected to alter
the manner of support materially.
The resolutions provide that men
and women who give and collect the
necessary funds shall have u certain
measure of authority in the distribu-
ton of these funds. In support of this
the resolution calls for joint session

DETAILS Of PLAN
FOR HOME RULE

LONDON. July 6.-The complete de-
tails of Lloyd Georges scheme for per-
manent home rule for Ireland was pub
lished in the morning papers. The fol-
lowing are the principal features:
First: An Irish house Of commons
will be constituted by the transfercncc
to the Irish parliament of seventy eight
members now sitting in the English
commons for the twenty six home rule
counties. 1.-THE total Irish representa-
lions in the imperial house of commons
is 1913 of which twenty five members
sit for the six Ulster counties provision
ally excluded from the home rule.)
Second: OF the seventy eight mem
bers to be transferred to the Irish
house Of commons 76 are nationalists
or independents. while two are union
lists, namely, Sir Edward Carson and
J. H. NJ. Campbell. attorney general for
Ireland These two members repre-
sent Trinity college, Dublin. They have
both consented to sit in the home rule
parliament and on this fact some hopes
are based for future amity.
Third: Members of the Irish com
mons will retain their seats in the
English house and viii often be seen
there, as the Irish body is not expected
to have much business to transact at
first.
Fourth: Considerable representa-
ton of the unionist interests in the
south and west of Ireland will be pro-
vidcd through the nomination of their
representatives to the Irish senate. II
/ is proposed that the senate sit and act
/ with the Irish commons during the tenn
porary settlement, thus safeguarding
| the interests of unionists.
Fifth: The temporary settlement is
Z to continue until one year after the
termination of the war At that time
the whole arrangement will come un-
der the review of the great imperial
conference which is to be held to adjust
| the government of the empire.
Sixth: The framework % Irish
finance in the home rule act will not
be altered but some increase will be
made in the sum to be transferred to
Irish revenues from the imperial
treasury.
