Rabbi Silverman's message fol-
lows: Palestine was once the
Promised Land, flowing with milk
and honey. 1t is today the land Of
promise, already rich enough in
achievements, due to the persistent
endeavors of the Palestine founda-
ton fund and other laudable organ
zations to justify the most radiant
hopes Of the lovers of Zion and the
sure expectations of Great Britain
and the League Of Nations.

to you. without malice or boast,
that at the present juncture Of

laid aside, and that all classes and

ton Of making Palestine a homeland
for Jews and a center for their re-

1.-The world has given the Jews
the opportunity of restoring their
ancient patrimony. Can we stand
aside and say we will have no part
In such restoration?

now being made to equip Palestine
with homes, synagogues, schools,
institutions and industries Of every
