CA recent cable to the effect that
the British plan to build jetty and
harbor at Haifa to cost $5,O0O,OOO
gives added interest to the follow
ing article.)
Haifa and the Bay Of Acre are
potentially the best port on the
coast of Palestine. That does not
say so much for the only other port
is Jaffa, which is very inadequate.
In the ancient medieval world
there were numerous Palestinian
ports. The names of Tyre and ST.
don are only the most famous of
these, but the ships of antiquity and
of the Middle Ages were small, and
what would make a good harbor
then would be quite useless today.
Haifa and the Bay of Acre, how
ever, ought, without much difficult
ty, to be made better than any port
on the coast of Syria, as we'll as
better than any port on the coast OF
Palestine Beirut is far from being
a good, natural harbor, and has this
further disadvantages: the noun
tains run down quite close to
Beirut, and communication with the
interior is by means of mountain
road or a narrow rack and p1n1on
railway. Haifa, on the other hand,
is at the mouth of the great valley
of Jezreel. All the traffic of Cali
lee, of Samaria, and the Jordan VAL
lev pours naturally into Haifa. The
approach to the rans-Jordan1an
Plateau from Haifa via the Yarmuk
Valley is also relatively easy, so
that Haifa is the port for that great
producing region. Nor is that all.
Ports on the coast Of Syria and
Palestine will compete not only for

The Future Of Haifa

the local traffic of Syria and of
Palestine, but also for the COM
merce of the vast IIinterland of
Mesopotamia, which has limitless
future before it. Damascus is COM
monty called the port of the desert.
1t is also the commercial centre of
Southern Syria. There will as
suredly be a battle royal between
Beirut and Haifa for the traffic
which concentrated at Damascus.
Not commercial factors alone will
decide If they did, the victory
would certainly go to Haifa,
but a good real will depend
upon which Power rules in Damas-
Gus. The French claim Damascus.
The British are putting forward no
pretensions, but, on the other hand,
Damascus is claimed by the Arab
State. If Damascus falls to France,
then France will use every art to
divert the traffic Of Damascus to
the port of Beirut. In that case we
may see the administration of the
future Arab State seeking to set up
a rival to Damascus, which shall at
tract the trade of the desert and di
rect it to Haifa. Bozrah mi ght we'll
be that mart. It is on a network OF
old Roman roads and has con-
siderable commercial history behind
it. Beirut will have to face for the
traffic of Syria other serious COM
petitors beside Haifa-Tripoli for
Central Syria and Alexandretta for
Northern Syria. In the event OF
Damascus falling to the Arab State
almost certainly it's traffic will be
diverted to Haifa and its prosperity
be greater than ever
The new Haifa will look far be-

yond the valley of Jezreel, the val
ley of the Jordan, the Hauran, and
the desert, to Mesopotamia. The
Bagdad railway project was, among
other things, a project for develop
ing the wealth of Mesopotamia and
diverting the stream of that wealth
to a favored spot. Germany de-
cided that the Western outlet
should be Alexandretta. Now that
Great Britain controls the Bagdad
railway and Mesopotamia the Brit
ish Government will assuredly det-
ermine the Western outlet, and
quite certainly Great Britain will
choose an outlet in Palestine. Haifa
is clearly destined by the British
Government to be the Mediter-
ranean seaport Of Mesopotamia.
How the railway connection shall
be made will depend in part upon
the frontiers decided at Paris. At
the present moment Haifa has con-
tinuous railway communication Of
kind with Bagdad. A railway from
Haifa links up with the Hedjaz line
and with Damascus From Damas-
Gus a line continued via Kayak to
A1eppo and the Muslimieh Junction,
where the Bagdad railway begins
it's eastward march to Mesopotamia.
This connection, however, is imper-
feet at present. The line from
Haifa to Damascus is of narrow
gauge. From Damascus to Kayak
it changes once again, and from
Kayak the standard gauge for the
Syrian railway and the Bagdad
railways commences. There are
thus three breaks of gauge and a
fourth must be added, or even, a
fifth, when we come to consider the
railway connection with Egypt. OBJ
viously, a uniform gauge will have
to be established, which means IN
effect that standard gauge rail-
way will have to be built from
Haifa to Rayak.-Palestine.

LADY ASTOR BOUND
TO WIN SOME DAY
Viscountess Declares If Beat.
She Will Fight Till
She Is Sixty-Five.

PLYMOUTH, England, Nov. 7.-oIf
1 don't win in this election I will
night until 1 am sixty-five," declared
v1scountess Astor, conservative can
dldate for parliament in a political
address here today.
The candidate, famous for her
beauty as well as her political sa-
gacity and keen humor, is finding it
difncult to speak at all of the meet
ings arranged for her.
One meeting today oyerfowed nv
such huge numbers that il was even
tuaily split up into three separate
gatherings.
Addresses Children.
While hurrying to a political meet
ing Viscountess Astor took time to
deliver an address to a group of chill
dren, advocating the vote for all chill
dren over three years. Just how the
youngsters received this startling
proposal is not recorded.
"Viscountess Astor never bats an
eye no matter how much work thew
pile upon her." exclaimed one of her
enthusiastic suporpters.
At one Of her meetings today, after
a number of witty sallies, the candi-
date turned serious and said:
"Win I Behave With Dixnityr-
If L go to Parliament l promise
to behave with dignity"
heckler interrupted the candidate
a number of times, saying:
Isn't there an English lady in
America capable of standing for Par
lament"
The interrupter may have been 70
ferring to Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst
former leader of the militant suffrap-
cites, who is now in the United States
on a lecture tour. Viscountess Astor
was not put out by the interruption.
Undoubtedly there are plenty
more able then l am. but none under
stand you better than 1 do" she re
piled.
