legitimate interest of the present pop
ulation would be injured, for the
Jews have no intention of going to
Palestine as class to exploit its
economic ossibilities-rather. they
intend to settle on the land as pro-
ducers and to carry on productive
occupations of every kind in harmony
with and for the mutual benefit of
the present and the future population.
I'm the opinion of men who have
studied the problem in all of it's bear
ings, the country, which today has
only population of 100000, can be
reclaimed so as to support q popu-
lation of 100000 persons. The coun-
try today has no more than forty per-
sons per square mile. while Egypt,
under British administration, has
500; Belgium, 632; Holland. 573, and
Palestine's neighbor, Lebanon, has
400 persons to the square mile.
"The regeneration must begin by
making the land accessible to new
settlers. The country is suffering
from the vice of absentee landlord
ism-the locking up Of vast estates by
owners-Efendis. a class of Arabs
created by the Turks. who have no
interest In the real development Of
the land. but live from the oppressive
rental which they draw from tenants
cultivating 1t in the most primitive
and sporadic fashion.
"The most glaring Of misleading
statements is the tale that Zionist
agents offered during the week end
ing June 80 the sum of $15,000,000
for tract of land in Palestine. Even
assuming that they had that huge
amount at their disposal for such
or any other purpose, the thing would
be impossible because Palestine is
enemy occupied territory, held by
British arms, subject to whatever
disposition Of the land may be made
by the peace conference or the league
Of nations. AS Maj. Ormsby Gore,
British representative on the Pales-
tine administrative commission, who,
addressing q Jewish conference In
Jaffa. on June IL, 1918, said:
"'At present we are bound to carry
on the Turkish system of law, taxa
tion and government. We are bound
to do this by international law, and
1t Is against Turkish law to sell land
in Palestine to Jews The whole
story Of Jewish settlement in Pales-
tine would be different II this were
not the case. Can any one believe,
in the face Of this law, and in the
face of Great Britain's determination
to abide by 1t. that the Zionist or
ganization would be likely to risk so
colossal a sum? Surely 1t would be
a hazardous venture.
zone of the statements which I
question Is that there are 600, 900 Mos

Why Didn't He Arrest Hims
The question has been asked if
Paul Sutton saw Scott deliver a
bottle of whisky to a woman in the
hotel why did he not arrest the
woman for illegal possession of in
toxicating whisky.
1t was cold-blooded murder" said
Rev. Thomas Taggart, pastor of
the Negro Bethlehem Baptist
church. Representing 5000 of the
best negroes in Omaha, a meeting
of the society of the National Ad-
vancement for Colored People was
held and il was decided to
send committee to wait on
Police Commissioner Ringer and
demand that the murderer of Eu-
gene Scott be brought to Justice.
We do not propose to stand idly by
and see members Of our race shot
down for no reason in the world.
THE fact that no whisky was
found near Scott gives the lie to the
statement of the police that he was
fleeing with a bottle. Even if he
had had whole case of whisky, the
policemen would not have been JUS
titled in numbering the man."
Say Hands Were in Air.
Scott is declared to have been
shot while his hands were in the air.
He had stopped running and prac
tically had given himself up when he
was killed, it was said.
The policemen entered the hotel
without a warrant. Detectives Thes-
trup, Sutton, Herdzina, Brigham,
Crandall, Crawford and Herdzina
began a general search of the hotel
when Sutton called to Scott. The
negro became frightened and made
dash for the lower floor and out
of the front door.
Judging from the facts as l see
them now, it would appear that the
shooting of Scott was unwar-
ranted," said Police Chief Eber-
stein. 1t also would seem that the
police are in the clear and that
Holman did the shooting, but we
will have to await the outcome of
proper investigation before max
ing a positive statement. If one OF
our men shot Scott, of course that
officer will not be kept in the de-
partment."
Ringer Not Informed.
At noon yesterday City Commits
sioner Ringer stated that he had
just heard of the shooting of Eu-
gene Scott from Chief of Police
Eberstein.
"All | can say at this time is that
if it is found that member of the
police department did the shooting,
that policeman will be suspended
Immediately. The chief is investl-
eating the case"
According to the statements of
several officers yesterday, Police
Chief Eberstein issued orders sew
eral weeks ago to his men to shoot
to kill any time prisoner made an
attempt to escape.
Despite the fact that the law
holds an officer guilty of man
slaughter if he kills prisoner who
is charged with a misdemeanor
while escaping, Eberstein's orders
to his men are to kill without re-
gard to the nature of the charge
against the man who attempts to
escape.

Mayor Smith declared he believed
the matter would be disposed of in
the right way by police officials.

comment. "All that l know of the

Tended by Mayor Smith and Com.
missioner Ringer for previous high
handed operations, in spite of
numerous outbursts of public in
dignation, have already taken the
stand that Holman must have shot
and killed Scott.
Here's Their Record.
Armstrong and Herdzina are the
two detectives whose unlawful in
vasion of the Brown apartments
last June called forth universal con-
demnation and a qscathing rebuke
from Judge Holmes in municipal
court after Commissioner Ringer
resorted to every means to blast

who were charged with framing
up" the raid with notorious boot
logger.
Detective Armstrong is the detec-
tive who was named recently by a
husband in a divorce suit against his
wife as the man who wrecked the
happiness of his home. Detective
Armstrong also was accused Of
using the city's automobile on mid
night escapades with women by this
same man.
Invaded Perruccello Home.
Thestrup and Herdzina are the
two detectives who entered the Per-
ruccello home, 804 Pierce street,
several weeks ago, without war
rant, shot up the house, assaulted
Mrs. Perruccello as she lay on a
sick bed, dubbed Perruccello and
struck down a l4-yeAr-old boy with
a policeman's club Thestrup and
Herdzina are being sued by Perruc-
cello.
Thestrup and Herdzina are the de-
tectives whose neglect and stupidity
are said to be responsible for the
death of John Redin, who lost his
life several weeks ago as result
of an accidental plunge into cis-
tern at his home. 1916 B street.
Armstrong, Herdzina and Thes-
trup are the detectives against
whose alleged unlawful actions and
numerous complaints have been req
istered with the police commission
err. SO far as is known the heads of
the police department never have
taken single step to investigate the
charges against these men.
One patrolnan was discharged be-
cause he testified at the Brown hear
ing that he took Herdzina and Arm
strong home on the night of the raid
on the Cass street apartments and
said the detectives had been drink
ing. A detective who made SIM
liar charge while testifying in the
Brown case was reduced.
Brigham is the detective who re-
Gently was accused of attacking the
proprietor of hotel in Thirteenth
street because the man refused to
refund So to guest, which Brigham
thought should be refunded. Brig
ham also is the detective who sew
eral nights ago emptied his revolver
at man who ran up an alley near
Fourteenth and Jackson streets.
The officer declared he believed the
fugitive had whisky on his person.
