a particular appeal to buyers who have
been impressed with the expansion of
Frances favorable balance of trade and
with the recent rise of French Exchange.

Citizenship Denied Even to Bap-
tiSed TewS

The policy which is now pur-
sued by the present Minister of
the Interior, of rejecting whole
sale the applications made by
Jews for citizenship in the Re-
public, has gone to such an extent
that applicants who have been
baptised for the last thirty years
have had their applications re-
fused on account of their Jewish
origin. Because of this they are
considered to be not of the Ger
man race, although actually there
is no such thing as a German
race, either ethnographically or
politically.

Arabs Will Not Confer With
ZiOnists

London g. T. A).-In an in
terview with the Morning Post"
DR.. Chain Weizman, leader of
the Zionist movement, declared
that the Zionists were ready to
negotiate with the Arabs through
their delegation now in London
on condition that the Arabs
agreed to the Balfour Declafation
which pledged Great Britain to
the establishment of a Jewish
homeland in Palestine. Weizman
stated the Jews and Arabs could
effect an amicable understanding
with much benefit to both peoples
and that there was no reason
why they could not work hand in
hand for the reconstruction of
Palestine.
Subsequent to the appearance
of the interview in the "Morning
Post" the Arab delegation issued
a statement, declaring that a con-
ference on the basis of an accept
ance of the Balfour Declaration
was impossible and that the
Arabs would therefore under no
conditions enter into negotiations
with the Zionists.
