The principal demand, according to
the manufacturers. comes from the East

Coast in the lead. Export trade was
also said TO be improving. Various
reasons were assigned for the apathy
in the Middle West, among them the
fact that il is principally agricultural

greater extent by depression in food
stuffs markets.
The Ford Motor Company announced
to-day that GO per cent. of the men en-

NEWS FROM PALESTINE
Palestine Administration Takes Steps
to Protect Jews Against
Attacks.
Jerusalem-The Palestine Admin
istration is well aware of the war
like frame of mind prevailing among
some elements of the Arab popula-
tion and has knowledge of prepara-
tions being made to start series of
attacks upon Jews as demonstrative
protest against the treatment Of the
British government towards the Arab
delegation in London.
Military officials have received or
ders from the High Commissioner to
hold their troops in readiness for any
possible contingency, while several
battalions of Indian and British
troops are stationed on the east side
of the Suez, prepared to make hur-
ried trip into Palestine at moments
notice. It appears that the attacks,
if they materialize, will begin in Low
er Galilee, and British troops are
therefore being concentrated near that
section. Jewish colonists and men,
bers of workingmen groups have
asked district governors for permis-
sion to carry arms. In several cases
this has been granted and the govern
crates have even supplied limited
amount of rifles to Jewish young
men.
Col. Bromley, Director of Defence,
recently visited the Jewish colonies
in Judah and told Jewish representa-
tives that the government was taking
