VAST JEWISH MASSES PREPAR.
ING TO GO TO PALESTINE.
Continued from page q

ish National Council for the Ukraine,
and former president of the Jewish
Community Of Petrograd reports that
in White Russia, rich and poor, and
young, all are carried away by the
idea Of going to Palestine. THE rich
want to invest their capital; the poor
hope to have a market for their la
Dor; and the intellectuals hope to be
able to apply their knowledge for the
building Of new Palestine. Many
have liquidated their property, and
made themselves ready to go. The
Zionist offices Of Kiev are always
thronged with hundreds, inquiring as
to the possibility Of early migration.
Committees have arrived from Kher-
son, Podaha, Bessarabia and various
other comitties demanding facilities
for at once sending their people to
Palestine, being all prepared to go en-
masse. Similar reports were brought
from Ekaterinoslaw, Kharkoff, Vol
hynia, Northern Ukraine and White
Russia.
Many Groups Walking Across
Europe.
Several young men from Homel de-
cided to 60 to Odessa where they hop
ed to get better information, and as
railway communication was interrupt
ed they marched the whole way on
foot. In Minsk, DR.. Saalkind attempt
ed to dissuade similar group from
proceeding to Odessa, and mourning
the risk of going through the various
fronts where fighting was going on.
They replied: 1--WE are determined to
60, and IL not all, some of US at least
will make our way through and get
to our destination"
In Odessa, preparations are under
way already for handling the vast
throngs that are expected to congre-
gate as soon as travelling is safe. DR..
Saalkind ends his reports by saying
"There is no risk Of exaggeration in
assuming that several hundred thou
sand, perhaps million people, are
preparing to leave Russia at the first
opportunity.
From Siberia came a request on
Bureau to obtain permission from the
British authorities for a great num-
Der Of wealthy persons, including res
idents Of the rural district who desire
to settle Immediately in Palestine. In
quiries have come also from Irkutsk,
0msk and Hardin. 1900 Austrian
war prisoners now in Siberia have or
gained to proceed in a body to Pal
estine instead Of returning to their
native countries.
Whole Communities viii Go from Po-
land.
Mr.. N. Farbstein, reporting for the
Jewish National Council Of Poland
says: "The persecution suffered by
the Jews under the present political
regime has given an immense i'm
petus to the emigration movement.
The general political situation and
fear Of pogroms on the one hand, and
on the other hand the absolute stagna.
