been spent for the work done Among the
main points of expense are: Salaries and
travelling expense of speakers, $4,000; Of
fee expense 10000, and for general agita-

so WENT UP TO JERUSALEM


Having the opportunity, I went up to Jerusalem
and stuck around for a couple weeks. l came, not
a donkey but the through train for Cairo I
met with "hozannas and there Plate
around to make afraid.
The first thing that saw was saloon For the
British mandate authorities had recently turned the
railway station into a big barroom The same
thorty has turned every railway station in Palestine
that is of any account into barroom SO in travel
ing through Palestine the government railways it
Is Just barroom after another
That is not the worst either. Under the same Brit
ish Mandate authority, exactly 800 liquor shops have
been licensed Under the rule of the "unspeak-
able Turk" there than Is. So
the first fruits of the Mandate authority under the
League of Nations, the number of shops in Jerusa-
lem has been multiplied about 1900 per cent
There is an organization of the Womens Christian
Temperance Union operating around Jerusalem with
upwards of forty members. They have been having
their meetings in quiet sort of way in the
of the Young Womans Christian Association. These
good women, practically all American missionaries
and teachers, did like the way things were going,
they invited me to speak to them a special meet
ing, but they quickly got into trouble. For Lady
Plumer wife of the British High Commissioner who
is the chairman of the Y. w. C. A. organization, felt
that it time to call such antdrnk activities, so
she forbade the of the Y. W. C. A. room for any
such nefarious purpose. Pussyfoot Johnson has
already made three speeches in Jerusalem, and that
is enough" declared her Ladyshp, and that settled
that.
But Lady Pumer has jurisdiction the Y. M
c. A. and the meeting adjourned at the last me
ment, to be held in the latter place.

But this uncanny incident stirred up the w. C. T.
organization. At the next regular meeting shar
things said about the Mandate authorities urnin
practically all of the railway stations into whisky hole

that just the right thing for the British Mar
datory increase the number of liquor shops by 12O
per cent.
So the w. c. T. u unanimously passed resolution
protesting to the Mandatory authorities for their
duct and that started discussion throughout the "Ho
City"
A year ago, the United Missionary Conference {
Syria and Palestine held in Jerusalem passed resolr
tons that "The United Missionary Conference recoe

While the total number of criminal cases dealt with
have rapidly increased, British efficiency has reduced
considerably the number of henous crimes. But the
volume of lesser offenses growing out of the multi

the total offenses show a heavy increase.

There is nothing in the law to prvent the issuing
