When he assumed control it was war;
time, and the municipal government
with it's Arab mayor was badly dis
organized. So Storrs, in addition to
his military duties, took over the worl;
of providing for civilian welfare, even
keeping in mind his desire to avoid a
paternalistic control.
Through his instigation the native
police were organized. Food control
was established, much like that in
American and European countries
during the war. Schools and hoSpt-
tails that had been closed when the
war threw the local government into
chaos, he reopencd. Baksheesh, the
infamous Turkish system Of graft
was cleaned from the courts of justice
Drinking, which had become alarm
ingly commonplace, was partly check

Storrs succeeded in closing the public
bars not only in Jerusalem, but also
by virtue of his authority as acting
chief administrator of Palestine
throughout the whole Of the country
Distilling of liquor was made legal
only in private homes.
His Town Planning.
The general took care, too, to pro-
vdo recreation for the citizens. Chess
clubs were organized and reading
rooms opened. Sports, including foot
ball and basket ball, were encouraged
and a public swimming pool con-
structcd.
His town planning, however, was
one of his most important innovations
He cleaned up Old Jerusalem, made II
sanitary and uvable, but did not at
tempt to convert it into modern city
Instead Storrs laid out new city, be.
yond the old-a city in which broad
streets lined with saplings which later
would become shade trees contrasteo
with the crooked alleys Of Old Jeru'
salem. And to set the new apart
rarks were created dividing the new
Jerusalem from the old.
In a manner pleasing to the native
inhabitants, General Storrs treated
with reverence the traditions of Jer-

The natives of the Austrial islands
do not want white people among them
and they put every obstacle possible
in the way of Europeans who would
settle there. They own their own

IN THE SEAT OF PLATE
British General is Now Governor Of
Jerusalem.

Jerusalem.
The office Of governor of Jerusalem
which nineteen centuries ago was o.
cupicd by Pontius PLATE today is held
by an Englishman, Maj. Gen. Ronald
Storrs. And as it is recorded that Pi-
late had trouble with his people and to
satisfy their clamoring must one day
each year release n prisoner with
whom they could do as they pleased;
so is the present day control of the
Holy City a difficult one. For there
are three widely variant classes IN
Jerusalem: Christians, Moslcms and
Jews, and the one who leads them to
work in harmony must shcathc his
iron control in delicate diplomacy.
General Storrs Is able to do that
He has set himself the important ad-
ministrative task of unifyng the city
Of Gi.sunions. Twice Il week he con-
ducts friendship meetings at which
French, Italians, British, Americans
rabbis, Zionists, leaders, commercial
men OF standing and others who are
prominent in Jerusalem come together
and debate and discover they really
have things in common.
This man who assumed control OF
Jerusalem in 1917 when he was ap-
pointed British military governor is
not an old man. He soon will be 40
but in his forty years he has amassed
world of first hand knowledge OF
the people Of Palestine and neiShbcr-
ing countries. General Storrs was one
Of the foremost ~workers toward the
establishment of an independent Arab
kingdom. He was for thirteen years
in the Egyptian civil service, and part
of the time was oriental secretary OF
the British agency at Cairo. Storrs is
one of "Kitchener's men," a graduate
of Cambridge university and a son of
the dean of Rochester college, Eng
land.
Speaks Arabic and Hebrew.
1t is because of his understanding OF
the eastern Mediterranean countries
that Gcneal Storrs can work success
fully with his polyglot constituency
He speaks both Arabic and Hebrew
almost as nuently as English and ad-
dresses the people in their native ton
yucs. even in public,meetings. On Of
fetal documents are two seals, one
Hebrew and one Arabic. Thus does
the governor coordinate the unrest
of the Arab and the ambition OF the
Jew. furthcring as much as he is able
the interests of Zionism, but at the
same time dealing fairly with the
Moslcms who compose the majority
of the population Of the city.

Long after General HoustOn's death,
according to Il newspaper story, the

private letters which fell into the
hands of his heirs.
Eliza Allen, his first wife, before she
met Houston, had been engaged to I

Houston fell in love with Eliza her
ambitious parents caused her to break
