THE RIOTS IN TAFFA

The news of bloody riots in
Jafa eliminating in the death of
thirty Jews and ever so many
Arabs and in two hundred other
casualties has stirred the Jewish
population everywhere because
there is already an orderly civil
administration in Palestine head
ed by Jewish notable and an
experienced statesman, Sir Her
bert Samuel. The pogrom in
Jerusalem of a year ago was as
cribed to the Vaccinations of
certain British officials of the
Army of Occupation who were
opposed to the policy of the Brit
ish government in regard to
Palestine, but this time, the riots
in Jaffa cannot possibly be as
cribed to the Palestine admins
tration. 1t is a we'll known fact
that certain political adventures
and conspirators in Palestine are
intriguing against the Jewish set
Element and are trying their ut
most to incite Arab against Jew,
but the officials of the local adj
ministration have watchful eye
on these adventures and it can
be stated in most positive terms
that the Jaffa riot is not a result
of these intrigues. In an official
statement to the London govern
ment, the Palestine High Com
missioner said that the riots can
be traced to communistic activi
ties.
Some four Or five months ago
the news came from Moscow that
the Soviet government had sent
emissaries to Palestine to propa
gate Bolshevism among Jews and
Arabs alike. A little later news
reached this country that COM
munistic party has been estab-
lished in Palestine and that it's
active members were more than
three hundred in number. Jewish
working men in Jaffa petitioned
the local authorities with view
to permit them to hold first
May, day demonstration. Since
the petitioners were known to the
authorities as peaceful men, their
requesA was complied with and

real menace to the peace and a
real danger to the population.
Nor will he be in position to toll
crate any longer, armed Arabs.
He will have to disarm them Just
as he has disarmed the Jews even
IT physical force will have to be
used, for as long as the Arabs
are armed to their teeth not only
the Palestine Jews, but the Eng
fish officials in Palestine are in
danger of their lives. The small
British expeditionary forces in
Palestine forming the Army of
Occupation could scarcely cope
with difficulties arising out of
possible rebellion of armed Arab
bands. The reported Jaffa riots
prove once more the present
weak position of our people in the
Holy Land. This weakness is
only due to their being a small
minority and this in turn is due to
the inability of the Zionist Or
ganization to ship large numbers
of Jews to the Holy Land because
they lack funds. The Palestine
government has called upon the
Zionist leaders to import fifty
thousand more Jewish laborers
because there is plenty of work
for them in the Holy Land. But
the request could not be complied
with because the Zionist treasury
is empty. What is necessary to
make the position of the Jews in
Palestine an impregnable one is
the immigration of two hundred
thousand Jews. If the Jewish peo-
pie will enable the Zionist Or
ganization to finance the Jewish
immigration to Palestine, the
Holy Land will remain a Jewish
land, otherwise it will not, in
spite of the Balfour Declaration
and the San Reno decision and

pCdCclul ueInOHSIIdI1O1l was
turned into Jewish massacre
has not as yet been learned.
The following facts are known,
First that the Jews were unarmed
because responding to the appeal
of Sir Herbert Samuel upon his
arrival in Palestine to surrender
arms and ammunition in posses
sion of the civil population, the
Jews in Palestine gave up their
arms. Second, that the Arabs in
Palestine had not complied with
the demand of the civil admins
tration to surrender the arms and
are armed to their teeth. Third,
that the communists in Palestine
are playing the part of the pro-
Arab and are busily engaged in
exciting the Arab against the
Jew. Fourth, that the Arabs at
lacking the Jews in the streets of
Jaffa fled upon the arrival of the
English military and the latter
could spare all their ammunition.
Two points are thus clear. First
that the civil government has
done little to disarm the Arabs
and secondly that it tolerated the
presence of Bolshevik agitators
in Palestine and Sir Herbert
Samuel will have to answer these
two charges. AS long as the
Arabs were not disarmed, it was
unwise to disarm the Jews and
having given the authority to ex-
pei undesirables and dangerous
elements from the country no
matter whether they be Jews or
non-J Jews, it was the duty of the
civil administration to free the
country from the red plague by
expelling all the three hundred
Bolshevik parasites constituting
the so-called Palestine Bolshevik
Party.
We understand that an English
Liberal statesman of the type of
Sir Herbert Samuel does not re-
sort SO easily to the act of ex-
pulsion. Until recently England
granted asylum even to the most
dangerous anarchists but what
Sir Herbert ought to bear in
mind and what he did not bear
in mind was that what England
can tolerate, Palestine cannot.

BUSINESS

Earl S. Temple Of Wauwatosa, has
arrived at Detroit, Michigan, where
he is taking a special training to
enter the automobile business. Mr..

ing their plants and becoming familiar

to remain IL Detroit for some factory
experience before starting in business
for themselves.
The automobile industry is fact be-
coming the worlds greatest business.
On January 1st, 1921, the total regis
tration Of automobiles in the United
States was over nine and a quarter
million. The production of new auto
mobiles in 1920 was about three mill
lion.
"a per cent of these cars come from
the Detroit district. Visits to these
factories Tor inspection and study of
their methods are part Of the Michigan
State Auto School course.
Mr.. Temples many friends will be
glad to hear that he is looking into
the future and preparing himself for
a place in the great automobile in
dustry.

MENOMONEE RIVER TO COME
CLEAN

A short time ago, one Of our citi-
zens, c. c. Jacobus, was appointed
chairman of the Milwaukee County
Board, this board having charge of all
the county buildings.
1t didn't take long before action was
taken regarding the dumping of sew
age, ETC., in. our Menomonee river, an
investigation was made personally by
Mr.. Jacobus, who, as a citizen of our
city, knew what a dirty mess the coun-
ty buildings We're sending our way.
He found that the new filtering beds
were unused owing to the lack of a
few parts. He Immediately got busy
with the other members of the boar.
and now Mr.. Jacobus advises that the
sewage matter is well in hand and the
new county sewage disposal plant will
be in operation this week, and no fur
ther deposits of solids and other mat
ter will be dumped into the river.
Why not get busy now and make
our river worth while. Get together
and dig channel through the center
of the river like Mr.. Dennis Warren
did when he was one of our city Off
cials, this will dc away with all stag
nant water, then build sort of an
embankment with the many stones
that can be found in and along the
river. If we could do these things,
the Menomonee river could be made a
thing of beauty. 1t wouldn't cost much
as we are sure there are large num-
Der of our citizens with the right spirit
who would be willing to put on boots
to do their bit in making the Menomo-
nee river a thing OF beauty. TFjs
would be a mighty fine thing for the
Mems Club to act upon.
