Abolish Zion" is their minimum
demand.
While awaiting this happy event,
the Arab tactic is to kill, burn, rob
and generally terrorize the British
into giving up their obligation un-
der the Balfour Declaration and
the mandate.
They admit these two principles
of statecraft without hesitation.
The grand mufti of Jerusalem,
Hal Amin Al-Husseini, could not
talk politics, but his word to
trusted lieutenant opened the way
for a full exposition of the Arab
viewpoint.

JewS Fight for Place to Lie

Jews and making the British alb
dicate?"
I'VE do noG ask for expulsion Of
the Jews already here" answered
Goury. I'VE accept the status
quo. In 1918 there were $4,000
Jews in Palestine, or Z per cent
of the population, and there are
now more than 100000, a third
of the population. All these Jews
came into the country against our
will and only by the support of
British bayonetS. Don't you think
we are generous when we say we
will let them Stay?"
The mufti was franker. Before
the Peel commission he testified
@. Does his eminence think
that this country can assimilate
and digest the 100000 Jews now
in the country?" A. mo" O..
Some of them would have to be
removed by a process kindly or
painful as the case may be?" A.
1--WE must leave all this to the fu-
ture." From which the commits
sion concluded that Arab control
of Palestine would be extremely
unhealthy for the Jews.
I asked Mr.. Goury if he could
not regard the question of Pales-
tine refuge for the Jews as a
world problem.
But" he exclaimed indig-
nantly, "Surely you must realize
we have, willingly or unwillingly,
given the Jews far more than any
of your democratic states with
all their sympathy for the Jews.
We have taken up to one-third of
our population. Where can you
show me another country that has
done that much? Canada, in the
same proportion, could take
l 100000; Australia could take
2, 100000; America could take 40,-
100000. Let your democracies
give to the Jews refuge for a frac-
tion as many as we have taken,
before you reproach the Arabs.
The Arabs of Palestine are
poor, uneducaCed, backward. 1ney
can't compete with European
Jews. We cannot allow them to
keep coming to Palestine until
they get a majority and then turn
and subjugate us. Either we win
or we shall be exterminated or re-
duced to hewerS of wood and
drawers of water for the Jews.
I'VE don't think any more. We
only feel and act. We are deS-
perate."

Chiseler's Tip: Among recent
scientific discoveries is the fact
that if you want to save a nickel
on phone calls you should put q
nickel in the slot, dial the opera
tor and say that you called such
and such a number and got no
reply. She will then give you
the number and shoot out a nickel
so your call will cost nothing. ;.

AdUertised Goods

There are many reasons why
advertised goods sell best. In
speaking of nationally advertised
goods, for example. travellers are
able to purchase the same brand
of cracker in the East as in the
West. in the North as in the
South and all of them are
equally good and crisp.
And the same principles apply
to all merchandise and goods
made or sold locally. The buyer
knows that a local advertiser is
ready TO stand behind his product
because his advertising is proof
of his confidence.
The advertiser is known and
has pledged himself to stand back
of his merchandise. He has given
his printed word to the general
public and must keep it. II is the
mark of good faith and is recog-
nized by buyers the world over as
such. q. @s~e.a Ezas
Almost without exception, all OF
the improvements in packages. or
other containers have been the d.
rect outcome of advertising,

More Trouble

Cotton grown in the United
States sets the standard for the
world. Much cotton is grown
elsewhere. but little of the long
staple crop which has brought
both wealth and poverty to the
South But if the world outside
America grows more cotton, what
ever its quality, the effects are
bound TO be felt in the cotton
States.
There is grave apprehension in
the South over the social and eco
nomic effects which are likely to
follow the introduction of sue
cessful contemplating machine.
Another reason for anxiety is that
Argentina is ready to adopt me-
chanical contemplating. The Ma
tional Cotton Board of Argentina,
in recommending the use of cot
ton picking machinery, says that
the substitution of machine power
for man power will not create IN
employment, since Argentina
faces a shortage Of labor in its
cotton growing areas.
But by the shift of machinery,
it is said, the sown area will be
greatly increased in zones where
the population is relatively
sparse. The world can hardly
use the cotton it has, but Argen-
tina hopes and intends to grow
more. And the cotton picking ma

PASTOR SIGNED
FOR I FIGHTS

NEW YORK. June 8 G.N.SJ.
Bob Pastors comeback campaign
today attained its most ambitious
proportions with announcement
by Manager Jimmy Johnston that
he had arranged a program Of
seven bouts that will keep the
young New York heavyweight in
action until September.
Pastor has won six fights and
fought a draw so far this year,
since he was beaten by Nathan
Mann in his last start of 1897.
The only other loss on his record
of 43 fights was to Joe Louis early
last year. Pastor has never been
knocked out.
He will swing into action next
at Boston against AL Mccoy on
June 20, after which he will take
on Fred Feducci at Newark, N. j.,
June 80; Red Burman at Newark,
July IL; Make RoSenoloom at Los
Angeles, July 27; Sailor Coates
at Los Angeles, August /; the
winner of the June 3 Philadelphia

ponent here on September 5.

will tend to help his coat and
supply the necessary aid for his
intestinal tract. I repeat, how
ever, that slightly boiled lean
meat should become the major
part of the dogs diet. A large
bone should also at all times be
provided in order that he may
clean his teeth by gnawing it
and also amuSe himself.
A variety of foods is more or
less essential to success in rear
ing and therefore animal own
ers should frequently change the
dogs menu. Your pet will ap-
preciate a change from beef to
lamb or liver. He will soon learn
to like different vegetables,
too, such as carrots, spinach,
celery and beet tops. All of these
are good for him.

Although many people con-
slider milk to be by far the best
article of food for growing pup
pies, and undoubtedly is good
one, it should not be forgotten
that the canine family for many
years have been meat eaters. I
therefore believe it advisable to
feed a mixed diet of meat and
well-boiled green vegetables as
soon as the puppy will attempt
to eat. Give him milk, of course,
but not as his only food.
After three monhs, or at least
four. puppies may be fed like
grown dogs as to the quality of
their food. However. the younger
they are the more frequently
they should be fed. Up to six
months they require from three
to four meals a day, given at
equal intervals, and after that
and until they reach the adult
age of one year should be fed
twice daily. After this the
larger breeds require only one
large meal given at night. AL
though there is a difference of
opinion as to the propriety of
feeding the adult once or twice
a day, there is none about the
puppy demanding a more fire.

When milk is given after the
