 One proof of the great attractiveness of Haifa lies in the fact that the Ger man Templars, a sect which insists on the return to Palestine as one of the articles of it's religious faith, before the war established its largest colony in the city. The neat, clean streets of the German colony formed a pleasing con trast 10 the dirty streets of the native section of Haifa when the British oc- cupied the city. At present there are 104 Germans in Haifa, although some of the buildings of their colony have been taken over by the local British admin istration.

around Jaffa and Jerusalem into Ludd Junction, and thence into Haifa, an! the line from Damascus which rounds the southern end of Galilee and crosse Palestine, running admost due west, meeting the coast at Haifa.
 Not only, however, is Haifa the logicai outlet for the railroad lines of Palestine (and Palestine is, at this early date tu it's liberation from Turkish rule, well covered with railroad lines). but it is the logical outlet for Damascus, the greaT granary of the Hauran and, in the opin- ion of many, the future port for Mesopo- tamia. It can be made not only into the front door of Palestine, but of the entire Near East. It can be made into the Naples of the Eastern Mediterranean.
 At present. Bairut is the port of Damas- GUS. There is good anchorage at Bairut and unquestionably it would be the chiet port of Syria and Palestine were it not that the cog road which winds down from Damascus to the sea is utterly in capable of coping with the commerce ot the country which drains into Damascus. The road crawls down through the Lebanon and is the only possible route from the hinterland into Beirut.
 On the other hand. the railroad from Damascus past the south end of Calico to Haifa is capable of handling any amount of traffic which Damascus might lead onto it. It traverses comparatively level country and from the time freight leaves Damascus only about 10 hours would be required for it to reach Haifa and be shunted into the Haifa docks. Given an adequate port, Europeans who know say that Damascus is capable ot great commercial development. number of caravan routes converge there and 1t would not be a difficult matter for Damascus, given permanent administra- tion of an ,enterprising sort, to revive it's ancient splendors.
 The Haurans great grain trade would likewise be diverted through Palestine to the sea if Haifa were developed to handle 1t.
 Haifa's relations to Mesoptamia are as yet uncertain.
 There are those who say that railroad will yet be constructed across the Syrian desert, leaving Mesopotamia about Kut el Amara and joining the Damascus Halta railroad below Dana scus. and there are others who say that Bosra at the head of the Persian gulf will always be the port for Mesopotamia.

ORDERLY EXPANSION

A town planning system is also badly needed for Haifa. The town is capable of all the expansion which will ever be necessary, but plan of expansion will have to be definitely laid down before hand and rigidly followed, if the chaos
 of disorderly, haphazard growth is to
 be avoided. This also would have been
 done already-even though the occupied
 enemy territory administration (south) of the British army is governing Pales-
 tine only emporarily-had the money been availa ble.
 One of the most immediate needs of Haifa, in common with the rest of Pal estine, is an untangling of land titles Before the war. bribery of Turkish of ficials secured many of the present titles to Palestinian land, and during the war many of these somewhat uncertain titles were made still more uncertain by the imprisonment of the owners and the for feiture of their land. Some of these owners are now back in Palestine claim ing their land and the clearing up of land titles will be almost hopeless job when the permanent administration comes into office. The present soldier administration is doing what it can in the matter. but it's functions are strictly limited by military law
 should the peace conference choose a power able to finance the development of Palestine Tor the permanent admin istration of the country, Haifa will be one of the first towns in Palestine to receive electric light from the power plant in the Jordan valley which Eu- ropeans of long residence in Pa-estins see as an early possibility. This is to utilize the fall of the Jordan either above or below Galilee in the production of enough electricity to light Haifa, Jeru- salem, Jaffa and Nazareth. Immense irrigation works are also possible in the Jordan valley.
 The plain of Esdraelon, one of the most fertile sections of all Palestine. is Haifas hinterand and should in time make the city the center of the richest farming region in Palestine. Already the Zionists have established their large colony of Zammarin and are demonstrat- ing the possibilities that lie in it's soil. tThe Zionist problem is nowhere in Pal estine more acute than in the present province of Haifa; Moslems and Chris tians alike are united against the menace which Zionism presents to Palestine). At present however. Mount Carmel is denuded of trees. A project has already been gotten under way by the present
