known. We need only to have an
intelligent government, willing to
extend aid for the necessary sur
vey and Investigations, and it will
be found that of all the Mediter-
ranean lands Palestine is surely not
the poorest.
Great Possibilities of Productivity.
"Need I remind you of the almost
certainty that the valley of the Jor-
dan will become one of the richest
cotton producing regions of the
plains of Sharon, Shefe1ah and Es-
draelon, which in the past have
formed the granary of the Orient,
and of. the wonderful pasture and
wheat lands of the vast trans-Jor-
DANA, with it's two harvests yearly,
as we'll as the wonderful prospects
for. tobacco, coffee and rubber plan
tation all over the land. These
facts, in my humble opinion, even
pitted against that of Lord Bryce,
emphasize the vast resources which
the New Judea will have, to feed
millions and to become again the
center of fresh and rejuvenated ma
ton under. the auspices of the En-
tente."

Editors Note.-The recent statement
of Viscount James Bryce, former British
Ambassador to the United States, on the
resources of Palestine has aroused wide
spread discussion among Zionists and
non-Zionists and was commented on edi-
torially by many leading newspapers in
this country Owing to the prominence
of Lord Bryce and his standing as an
authority on the subject, his statement
to the effect that the Holy Land could
not support more than 100000 additional
population after expanding great sums of
money on irrigation projects, was re-
garded as proof of the inadequacy of
Palestine as Jewish. Homeland. Mr..
Ben Avi refutes the figures of Viscount
Bryce and declares that he is under
the spell of the usual mistakes concern
ing Palestine" The complete text OF
his statement follows:
