UNCONSCIOUS
Car Hits Deep rut on one
Side of the Road and
Goes Over.

e. s. Johnson was badly injured i'll
an auto smash-up near his farm north
east of the city yesterday. He has been
confined to his bod since but is much
better today. His injuries We're all
about the head.
Mr.. johnson was driving alone at the
time. He had been out to the farm, the
old Mott place, and was returning to
the city. He was coming up small
grade out of ravine when the wheels
of the car struck deep rut and the
auto turned over. No one was nearby
and Mr.. johnson knows nothing as to
what happened until he found himself
back at the farm house Evidently he
had landed beneath the car, but was
so badly dazed that he knew nothing
until he wandered back to the farm.
There was no one at home, however.
He had suffered bad cut above one
eye and his neck was badly wrenched.
Still dazed and with his face covered
with blood, he walked out to the road
and tried to stop several passing auto
lists. None stopped. however. either
because they did not see him OF, were
afraid to stop.
In this dilemma he started back to
town on foot and walked all the way
home-a distance Of about two miles.
There he collapsed and went to bed.
Medical assistance was summoned and
today he is feeling much better. though
Inc suffers considerable pain from the
bruises. His condition, however. is not
serious and he will probably be out
again within day or so.

War. But it would be unwise of us
to ignore the fact that this point Of
view is being contested today in some
very authoritative quarters, and that,
whatever the truth of it may be, the
Palestine military expenditure is adj
mittedly unpopular at the moment.
The demand today that the Army
should be reduced to it's pre-war
standard is practically general.
So far this reduction has not been
effected, nor is there any prospect of
it's Undertaking. this year. So long
as this is the case there seems to
be ample justification for demanding
that the Jewish units should be main
tanned with the rest of the present
establishment. But this can only be
a palliative, and it is obvious that, in
the not very distant future, the exis-
tence of Jewish troops in Palestine
can only be ensured if the Jewish peo-
pie undertake to share in the cor
responding expenditure.
Fair-minded opinion in Great Brit
ain will, of course, readily agree that
this share can only be comparative
ly modest one, in accordance with the
limited resources at our disposal.
Israel is not State and cannot be
expected to raise public money on
the same scale as one of the wealth.
lest nations of the world-the British
nation. Moreover, no unprecedented
person can deny that Jewish troops
stationed in Palestine would serve not
only Jewish but also British interests.
Even putting aside Palestine's role in
the protection of the Suez Canal,
the mere task Of defending public or
der in the country itself is one of the
first duties of the Mandatory Power.
An arrangement will have to be
found in accordance with all these
considerations. The details of such
an arrangement can evidently not be
discussed here. The following data
will suffice to give the reader some
rough idea Of what we might reason
ably be expected to supply. There
can be hardly any question in the i'm
mediate future Of the Jewish "Treas-
ury's" being able to defray such ex-
penditure as equipment, tents, am
munition, military material, of
which large, not yet exhausted guam
titles, have been stored during the
War. The item where the Jewish
share might efficiently come in is the
pay on the personnel. The present
pay of private in the British Army
is three shillings a day; before the
War it was one shilling; in the now
proposed Palestinian militia pri-
Yates pay has been fixed at LIE. 1

ard may be taken as the base of our
calculations. It would work out at LIE.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

(taking into account the higher pay of
non-commissioned officers) for every
battalion of 1000 men. This, Of course,
is only a minimum, as it does not
comprise the pay Of the officers, nor
any special allowances. Thousands
among the young Zionist pioneers are
willing and anxious to enlist into the
present Judean battalion. 1t is only
fair to them to expect that lower pay
will not in the slightest degree weak
so far as genuine pioneers are con-
cerned. Any young immigrant pre-
pared to trough it" in civil occupation
will have to content himself with less
than the equivalent Of zone pound a
month and all found"
Though serious, the weight of the
expenditure involved should not be
over-estimated. It might be useful
to recall that every civilian pioneer
engaged in any of the proposed
works of national Importance" such
as afforestation or drainage will cost
the Keren Hayesod at least LIS to Ii
per month. Nor would it be quite fair
to reject this comparison on the
ground Of the time-honored platitude
that classes military expenditure as
"unproductive." 1t hardly deserves
such a description in our case. Even
without emphasizing the standpoint
of political safety, already dwelt up
on in the beginning of this article, as
we'll as the still more important point
Of "safety" in the most literal mean
ing of the word, the Judeans have
proved an excellent "training depot"
from the point of colonization. If
properly managed, this institution can
be turned into real school Of pioneer
ing, without losing anything of it's
military preparedness and efficiency.
It is, besides, not improbable that the
syllabus" for the new Judeans could
be modified so as to include the teach
ing of Hebrew and English and, dur
ing the second year of service, oppor-
tunities for training in works of pub
lie utility.
1t might be uggested-indeed it
has been suggested-that the whole
difficulty could be settled by forming
in Palestine local army, paid for
out Of the country's own Treasury.
This would be most undesirable, both
at the present moment and at any
time in the immediate future. Even
the small and transformations local mi
litia which it is now proposed to raise
meets with very weighty objections;
a more ambitious scheme would JUS
tify the strongest opposition. Pales-
tine is poor country; it's official bud
get for 1920-21 is much below the
Zionist estimate for the year. Any
serious financial sacrifices of this
character would force the Palestinian
