JEWISH AMBASSADOR FOR
ALL CAPITALS is URGED
Josiah Wedgewood Believes Plan
Would End Persecution of
Those in Palestine.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, February "A Jewish
| ambassador from Palestine in every
great capital. to speak for the Jews.
would bring to an end persecution di-
rected against them in all lands, in
the opinion of Commander Josiah
Wedgewood.
Commander Wedgewood is a colonel
in the British army and D. S. O.. but
he prefers to be known by his Boer
war naval title. He was wounded at
Gallipoli. He has been here on gov
ernment business and has addressed
many meetings arranged under the
auspices of the Palestine restoration
fund. He has been strong supporter
of the Zionist movement.
"A Jewish state in Palestine will solve
the Jewish problem he said today.
This is critical time for the Pales-
tine idea" he continued. There are
still political obstacles of an interna-
tional nature to be overcome, and the
Jews must put all the momentum they
can into the movement. They ought to
send their biggest men to Palestine to
work out plans for the new state. I
wish Judge Brandeis could go. He is
one of the finest intellectual forces /
have had the privilege of coming in
contact with.
1.-The sooner Jewish administration
is started in Palestine the better.
Il feel that everyone who takes an
interest in human freedom must be in
terested in Jewish repatriation. Per-
sonally, have been a Zionist for years,
and now it is a wonderful thing to be
able to assist at the birth of this new
state
Many persons consider the Jews ma
terialists. but their plans for the Jew
ish state show the highest idealism.
There will be no vested interests in
alestine, no pull. According to the
plans, it will be a state belonging to
the peope.
THE Jewish state should include all
of Palestine. 1t should stretch from
Dan to Beersheba. and include all the
territory of the twelve tribes. I hope
to see it placed under the protection
of the League of Nations to be formed
after the war

n GOOD HOME FOR
EVERY WAGE FARMER
Only Possible By Recognizing Its
Relations to Difficult
Problems.

"a good home for every wage Garner
is possible only by recognizing tina,
housing is Intimately and permanently
related to a number of large and diff
fcult problems" says John Nolan. city
planner and first vice president Of the
American Civic Association.
Some of these are planning prob
lens, some questions of broad economic
policy. For example. We have the close
relation between city planning and
housing-how it is Influenced by the
location of factories; by the proper
districting of the city, and by other
building regulations; by the street
system, and especially by means OF
transportation: by the proper distribu-
tion and development of parks. play
grounds, and neighborhood facilities
for recreation. Many housing schemes
have been carried through as if they
were isolated phenomena, and thus have
failed of their purpose.
The general conclusions drawn
from an examination of the problem
of the factory and the home are five:
That new factories. in their own in
terests and in the interest of all others
concerned, should locate on the out
skirts of cities, or establish independ-
ent industrial centers, whenever practi-
cable.
That existing factories in cities
should be encouraged. as opportunity
offers. to remove to more open situa-
ttons.
That employers and employees should
cooperate in a social and democratic
way to create community on the out
skirts of cities near factories, each do
ing their part to make the local COM
munity healthful, convenient and at
tractive.
That the same cooperation should
be directed toward securing also fol
employees and their families. by proper
transportation facilities, some of the
advantages and pleasures of city life
That the choice for factory employees
sh.L.-. not be sharply drawn between
the city and the country. Both should
be recognized as desirable-the city for
occasional inspiration. diversion and
wider social intercourse, and the more
open countryside for the essentials OF
daily life"
