l. There are frequently reported
in the national press events and
IL facts Of so sensational nature
that many times they are
scarcely to be credited. The latest phe-
nomenon of this description has been

Turkish Distrust
Recalled in Palestine.
Turks were q suspicious people When
they governed Palestine they were never
quite sure whether you were not form
ing a society to murder the Sultan, to
seize the reins of power and rule Jeru-
salem in the interests Of the Cochin
Chinese or some other distant people.
Therefore they made a law whereby rs
soon as you desired to form . society
you had to inform the local authorities
and then give full particulars about
your society in the columns OF the
euuiva lent of the Palestine Bulletin. This
old law still applies and if you want to

You begin with Mr.. Spicer. You work
your way through Mr.. Crpsbie to the
French consul You find the mayor OF
Jaffa directing with tie manager OF
the Ottoman Bank. Maj. Elsdale and
Mrs. Lucie Smith are on the committee,
while Mr.. Preston is the secretary. With
this lead polo should prosper In Pales-
tine.
