No Anti-Jewish Riots During Rev.
OlutiOn.

OlutlOn.
A correspondent of the London
Daily News calls attention to the
fact that during the days of the
revolution no attempt has been
made by the people to attack the
Jews. The few attempts made in
Odessa and elsewhere were organ
lied by the Black Hundreds and
the police, and these also failed
as soon as the authorities of the
provisional government learned Of
the plots. Even there no Jewish
blood was shed and the uprising
was quickly quelled. This is the

Soldiers Refused Leave on Pass

Soldiers Refused Leave on faSS-
over.
Although last year Jewish SOL
diers in the British army were
granted whole weeks leave on
account of the Passover holiday,
when the request was repeated
this year the Army Council found
itself unable to grant it because OF
the pressing military necessities.
Much regret is felt on account OF
this decision, although English
Jews are ready to submit in such
an emergency as the present crisis
and not insist on their demands.
DR.. A. Abramowitz, honorary
chaplain of the Canadian troops,
obtained permission for all Jewish
soldiers in Canada to spend the
Passover with their relatives or
friends.

WHEN THE BRITISH ARMY
TAKES PALESTINE.
Sir Archibald Murray, COM
mander of the British Army which
has invaded Palestine and is now
invading GAIA, although his caval-
ry and camel corps supported by
armored cars have advanced to
within twenty-five miles of Jeru-
salem, has issued the following
statement Of the disposition that
will be made of Palestine, whose
capture is expected within the
next few weeks x
"The Palestine plateau, once we
have occupied it will be easy to de-
fend. It could be held with ease
by comparatively small force,
which could be reinforced at lei
sure.
"What should we do with Pales-
tine, thus liberated from the cen
tury-old Turkish grip? There can
be little doubt that we should re-
vive the Jewish Palestine Of old,
and allow the Jews to realize their
dreams of Zion in their homeland.
"All the Jews will not return to
Palestine, but many will do SO.
The new Jewish State, under Brit
ish or French aegis, would become
the spiritual and cultural centre of
Jewry throughout the world. The
Jews would at least have a home
land and nationality of their own.
The national dream that has sus-
tanned them for a score of centu-
ries and more will have been full
filed"
