UNITED STATES CONSUL RE
PORTS ON ZIONIST BANK.
fJewish Teieeraphic Asency1

/ WashingtOn,-The I)epartment OF
Commerce has released the following
cable based on n report to the Depart
ment from Consul SOuthard. Mt Je-
rusalem:
THE Zionist Organization in Pal
estine. according to report to the De-
pnrtment of Commerce from Consul
Southard at Jerusalem. has officials
registered with the Palestine Govern
ment bank to he known as the Gen
eral Mortgage Bank. with capital
of l.. T.. 100000 or about SSOO0O0 at
current exchange rates. Other small
er private banks of a like nature have
been organized on paper and officially
registered. The Palestine govern
mcnt Is also making plans for organic
ing a government mortgage bank to
receive the funds derived from the
liquidation of the former ottoman
agricultural Bank.
The economic development of Pal
estine is seriously handicapped at the
c.ent time by the fact that only
very restricted credit facilities are
,vailablc. There are five agencies of
foreign banks which accept. however.
practically no lOng-term loan business,
or even short-term loans except from
merchants who can offer high-class Sc
curity. About so per cent. of the pop
ulation must depend upon individuai
money-leaders whose rates are usuri-
Gus. The average bank rate is y
Der cent. and that of money-ienders
10 per cent. and upwards. The cotil-
try has practically no capital of its
own and its resources are negligible
The five banks at present establish
ed in the country make almost en-
elusive use of foreign capital: four oi
these are branches of wcll-establishcd
and prosperous international banks
which are naturally guided by hard
business facts in the capital allotted
for employment in Palestine The
Zionists may provide some capital
from sentimental reasons. but the new
bank for mortgage loans will depend
to an important extent upon Ameri
can money. Mortgage loans will re
ceive first consideration in this new
bank and then will come Long-term
firm mortgages. There is no imme
diate need of industrial credits, as the
population is only 100000 and consists
mostly of the peasant type.

SIR HERBERT SAMUEL ENDORSES
KEREN HAYESOD
Immigration Depends on the Economic
Progress. Says High Commissioner

Sir Herbert Samuel. the British
High Commissioner of Palestine, in n
letter to DIR. Ben Zion. who is touring
McsOpOtamia in the interests of the
Ecrcn Haycsod. endorses this fund and
calls upon the Jews of the world to
contribute to it. in order to insure the
economic and cultural development Of
Palestine,
The program of the Kcrcn IIaycsod
in Palestine. rs announced by the
not only the development of the nat.
ural resources of Palestine and the eS-
tablishmcnt Of a number of basic utili-
ties. but also the maintenance of n
network of elementary and secondary
schools in which Hebrew is the Ian
guagc of intercourse and instruction.
Sir Herbert Samuel concludes his
letter as follows:
IF the Jews of the whole world are
ready to supply the necessary funds. I
feel convinced that the energy and en-
thuSia sm of the Jews already in Pal
estinc. as well as of those who are pre-
pared to immigrate. will so develop
Palestine that the country will he Il
source of pride and prosperity to the
entire population. Jewish and non
Jewish alike. Judaism and Jewish
civilization will there again display
the qualities which made .iewry great
in the ancient days"
The report of the message from the
High Commissioner has aroused con-
siderable satisfaction In Kercn Hayc-
sod circles in the United States. They
point to the fact that the endorsement
of Sir Herbert Samuel should go
long way towards removing whatever
little opposition still exists which had
its origin with the previous admins
tration of the Zionist Organization OF
America.
