NEW PALESTINE PLANS ..
DISCUSSED BY-U.- S: JEWS
Zionist Executive Committee al
Buffalo Outlines Its Pro-
posal at Meeting.

BUFFALO, N. r. November &c.
Discussion of practical plans for the
participation Of American Jewry in
the upbuilding Of the new common
wealth Of Palestine was continued at
today's session Of the twenty-t third
annual convention Of the Zionist Or
ganization of America. -
Interest centered in the resolutions
submitted by the executive committee
outlining, in eight proposals. the pol
icy to be pursued by America in the
financing of Palestinian public utili-
ties and public service corporations.
banks and the key industries, home
building and cooperative producing
and consuming enterprises.
The extent of control to be retained
by the World Zionist Organization
over public utilities or service corpo-
rations which it may finance devel-
oped extended debate. The executive
committees proposal read:
Subject to the approval Of the
executive OF the World Zionist Or
ganization. investments in public
utilities or public service corpora
tions or corporations for the develop
ment OF the natural resources Of the
country shall be solicited for each
fund or pool or holding company.
Profits therein shall be limited to a
reasonable return. The surplus, if
any. shall be held in trust for the
benefit of the people Of Palestine.
The economic council, If and when
created, or some similar body estab-
lished by the world organisation,
shall exercise the ultimate majority
control Of each of such corporations" !"
President Julian W. Mack Of Chi
cago said that sorely as money was
needed for development work in Pal
estine, nothing that smacked Of ex-
ploitation Of the country's resources
would be tolerated il the voice Of
American Jewry carried any weight
in the framing of laws Of the new
commonwealth.
"We desire to save them from our
errors" he said.
