JEWISH HOMELAND AND JEW

Observations On the Establishment
Of the Book-Producing Industry
In Palestine.

there recently appeared the following
cable dispatch from Palestine:
Jerusalem, July 22.-The PROPOSE
ito nto consolidate the American "Jer-
usalem Printing Works Association"
with the Petrograd Society "Kiryath
Sepher" (City Of the Book whose
object in common is to establish in
Jerusalem modern printing and
Publishing House, has been effected
by representatives Of both organiza-
tions. The American members on the
Palestine Commission, DR.. Harry
Friedenwald of Baltimore, Mr.. E. W.
Lewin-Epstein of New York and Mr..
Robert Sold of Chicago represented
the American organization, while Mr..
s. Saltzman and Mr.. ]. L. Goldberg
represented the Petrograd society.
Mr.. Jacob DeHaas, executive secre-
tary Of the Zionist Organization Of
America assisted in arranging the de-
tails of the consolidation and under
took to deliver the document to the
meeting Of subscribers which is to
take place in Chicago about the mid
die Of September.
In the mean time the Hebrew daily
paper "Hadashot Haaretz" THE news
Of the Land) was started and suit
able site for the building is being
negotiated by the Palestine Commit
tee.
This is certainly good news to those
who are familiar with the present
status Of the Hebrew book.
Before the war there were large
Hebrew book-producing centers in
Poland and Lithuania. The calamities
Of war which swept with blighting
effect over the Jewish centers in
those countries have completely wip-
ed out the Hebrew book-producing es-
Establishments. In the same time the
mass expulsions fire and vandalism
have destroyed the private Hebrew
libraries which Jews Of the orthodox
type usually consider as their most
precious possession. The result is
that in the East European countries
there is not Bible, nor a prayer
book, nor a Talmudic volume to be
had, and no trace of textbooks or
educational workers. And the present
chaotic conditions in Eastern Europe
hold out no hope for the re-establish-
ment Of Hebrew publishing house
on the ruins Of the old ones.
In view Of such circumstances it is
more than a mere coincidence that
the thought Of establishing a modern
well-equipped printing and publish
ing house in Jerusalem emerged al
most simultaneously in America and
in Europe. Recent developments
clearly indicate that Palestine is des-
tined to become n large Jewish CEN
ter II is the land where the Hebrew
spirit and the Hebrew atmosphere
have long ben fostered. The labor as
well as the learning requisite for the
production Of Hebrew books are to
be found there in greater abundance
than in any other Jewish center. Pal
estine is also centrally located be-
tween East and West, and Hebrew
books from Palestine will find ac-
ceptible markets. In the meantime
It will provide work to hundred and
later on to thousands Of families who
have lost their bearings by reason Of
the destruction NJ Tho Hahrau, hooL

financially to the extent Of five pounds
per month per head. The students
were soon forthcoming, and the
courses are already open. During the
first half Of the day the students are
engaged in practical work, helping
their teacher to perform his medical
duties; the second half is devoted en-
tirely to theory. The duration Of the
course of study is one year.
II is interesting to note the con-
trast between the former and the
present regime. Under Turkish rule,
when some plan for a new institution,
either private or public, was COM
plete, il was certain from the first
that it would take years IN carry It
out, But now during the short period
Of British occupation, a good many
plans Of far-reaching economic signi.
ficance have already been laid before
the authorities, whose authorization
is awaited daily. Two may be men
toned here: the shopkeepers' organi-
zation and the "Hashahar," build
ing society. The merchants Of Jaffa,
finding the number of storehouses in
the town insufficient for the require
ments, and in view also Of the exorbi.
tant prices demanded by the proprie-
tors, which put the shops beyond the
reach Of small merchants, have ap-
piled to the authorities Of Jaffa for
permission to lay pavement along
the whole sea-front, on which broad
market-place, with a fountain to COM
memorate the British occupation.

entail Jews in Petrograd came togeth-
er during the brief Kerensky regime
and organized the society "Kiryath
Sepher" with the above stated object
in view. Almost at the same time
a number of Jews in America organic
ed the Jerusalem Printing Works As
ISOLATION and proceeded to raise the
sum of 100000 by disposing of 1000
shares Of the par value of $4,000
each. The representatives Of the Pc
trograd Society who proceeded to
Palestine were soon cut off from Rus
STA by reason of the Bolshevik revolu-
ton. HEY succeeded owever in
raising in Palestine a considerable
sum of money to start daily paper
OF which the country stood in great
need. The American organization has
thus far secured subscriptions
amounting to $4,000 and expects to
raise the full amount of 100000.
As soon as the two organizations
learned Of each others existence they
simultaneously moved for consolida-
ton. This has now been accomplish
ed through the efforts Of the repre-
sentatives Of the Petrograd society on
one hand, and the American men,
bers of the Palestine commission on
the other, as stated in the above quot
ed cable-dispatch. A committee con-
sisting Of three members was APP
pointed to look around for a suitable
site for the building while the Amer
lean end Of the organization is begin
ming to consult experts on the equip
ment Of the printing establishment
which is to be shipped from this
country.
The establishment Of the Jerusalem
Printing Works in Jerusalem within
the next two years seems to be as
sured.
Eighteen hundred years and more
the Book constituted the spiritual
homeland Of the Jews. No land-not
even Eretz Israel-is likely to be-
come the physical homeland for any
part Of the Jewish people IL it should
not at the same time also become the
home Of the Hebrew Book.

The man who builds a home for
himself and his family does not build
a house that twill do" Ordinarily the
house he puts up will provide him and
the other members of his family with
home for a great many years. OF
course, the foresighted man will not
build such an out-of-the-ordinary house
that it will not be readily salable, but
he will put into his home the conven-
fences and comforts that he wants.
Because of these facts the selection
of the design for the new home is an
important matter. 1t is one Of the
things that should be given careful
thought and everything that bears on
1t should be considered before the de-
sign finally is fixed upon. And right
here let it be said that the local archi-
tect, the contractor and the material
man all can give valuable advice at
this stage of the project. They have
had a great deal of experience in de-
signing and building homes and they
know the mistakes others have made
and how to avoid them.
To many men a garage is an essen
tial building. They want places where
they can house their automobiles,
where they will be available at all
times and where they can do such
work on the machines as is necessary
to keep them in good running order.
Home With Garage.
The home shown in the accompany
ing design combines the modern home
with a modern garage. 1t is seven

The pergola roof of the garage and
the roof Of the side balcony are cover

Under the whole of the house proper
is a basement with concrete floor and
walls. This is divided so as to keep
the heating plant separate from the
food and other storage rooms.
Stucco houses now are in great de-
mand. They are of either standard
frame, brick or hollow tile construc-
ton, with stucco over either wood or
metal lath or applied directly to the
walls when hollow tile is used. Either

same time it does not cost an exorbi-
tant sum to erect,
Much Home Building.
Never before have so many persons
been building homes as there are this
year.. The reasons are many. The
general run of heads Of families now
are earning larger incomes than ever
before. Rents have been advanced
materially. At the same time the cost
of building has not kept pace with the
increase in incomes and rents. These
are causes that have determined many
thousands to build homes of their own.
Economically home owning is great
asset. The man who owns his home
is looked upon as a stable, prosperous
and thrifty member of the community.
To him comes opportunities that pass
by the man who rents. With all other
things equal, the astute employer al
ways gives preference to the home
owner when an opportunity for adj
yancement comes. He knows that the
man who owns his home will stay, and
is not so sure of the other fellow who
has no ties to keep him on the job.
Aside from the patriotic motives that
the government is urging to induce
people to build homes so as to furnish
employment fo= labor, there is every
selfish reason why everyone who pos
sibly can should build home this
year. They are the persons who will
profit in the end.
