A JEWISH "DOUBLE-
HEADER"

1t has often been pointed out that
the Jewish outlook OH life is differ

sometimes exult in things that
would not be singled out by others
for any special comment. A very
good illustration of this difference"
is the "Doub1e-header" of which

Messrs John d. Rockefeller and
son have contributed SIS, 900 to the
United Building Fund Campaign
of Federal Jewish Institutions Of
New York City. While the Jew
ish people deeply appreciate this
generous act of Americas richest
man, they are also conscious and
proud of the fact that their rich
men have many and many a time
given just as literally to Christian
philanthropies. They are willing to
give as we'll as to receive.

OUTSIDE FORCES IN OPPOSI-
TON TO A JEWISH PALES-
TINE.

Aside from the opposition from
certain Jewish quarters to Jew
ish Palestine there are three out
side forces that are unreconciled to
it, and with whose antagonism the
Zionists will have to reckon for
some time to come. They are:
France, that desires to annex Pales-
tine to Syria and to make the whole
strip it's protectorate, contrary to
the interests and wishes of Eng
land; the Catholic church that
would see in a Jewish Palestine
diminution of it's own prestige; and
the Christian land-holding Arabs of
Palestine who will brook no eco
nomic rivalry. It is for these rea-
sons that speedy realization Of the
Zionists' aspiration is utterly i'm
possible as we'll as undesirable. The
Zionists' plan can be carried out
only by gradual peaceful penetra-
ton. A million and a half or two
million Jews in Palestine, engaged
in agriculture, industry and COM
merce, in control of the best and
most complete educational system,
and Of the best governed villages
and towns, will be the strongest
argument for Jewish State. In
the meantime the native Arab popu-
lation and the Catholic church
will become convinced that the in
terests of neither will suffer in con-
sequence, but that on the contrary
all will alike be benefited by the
energy and devotion the Jews will
bring to their new-old homeland.
But the present opposition Of the
above mentioned three forces ex-
plains certain inspired" reports

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

concerning Palestinian matters that
every now and then appear in the
American public press. The other
day, for instance, an item ap-
peared under the heading, Zionist
Legionaires Eager to Return to
United States" and told the story
of their eagerness. The inference
to be drawn, of course, is that if
these youths, who actually fought
for the redemption of Palestine, see
no future for themselves there, why
should any Jew chase the Zionist
rainbow? The printed story of
course, was exaggerated and one
sided, and it's implications were ut
terly baseless. Many legionaires
have remained and will remain in
Palestine. Many more will return,
which is but natural How can
any one expect business-less, trade
less, penniless young men to find
any prospects in Palestine at the
present time? Nor does Palestine
want such settlers just now. What
Palestine does want is men with
some capital, and men with trades
and professions, in short, people
who can bring into it more than
they can expect to get out of it
right now. These will create the
opportunities for others who are
not so fortunately situated
True and level-headed Zionists,
therefore, will not be discouraged
or mis1ed by such press items, but
will have the ultimate goal con-
stantly before them, without clos
ing their eyes to present difficult
ties and obstacles.
