2 Tiger Cubs, AIpoeos
Added to Zoo Collection

Two royal Bengal tiger cubs were
added to the Zoos collection today,
along with pair Of South American
alpacas.
The tigers we're the first of this
type on view here since the death
several years ago of an elderly
male.
Royal Bengals are kings of the
tiger family. Their vivid stripes,
size, grace and activity make them
valuable exhibition animals.
The alpacas are beasts of bur-
den related to the South American
llama branch of q large family of
American camels." DR.. William
M. Mann, Zoo director, bought the
tigers and alpacas recently from q
New York dealer.
The Zoo already has Sumatran
and Siberian tigers.

Consul General WadsWortE
Seeks Protection for
American Jews.
BY CRESTON B. MULLINS.

The State Department is increas-
ingly concerned for the safety Of
American nationals in the Palestine
troubles. Consul General George Wads-
worth is in constant touch with the
British high commissioner for the pro-
lection Of Americans under the terms
Of the mandate.
As the result Of attacks last Satur-
day on the village Of Ain Hashophet,
on the northern Esdraelon Plain near
Haifa, colony composed mostly of
American Jewish emigres, the State
Department has requested its Mr..
Wadsworth to prepare a list Of such
| colonies throughout the Holy Land.
Besides Ain Hashophet, American
Jews comprise substantial portion Of
the population Of three other villages
Petah Tikvah, Raamana and Herzlia
and it is believed that there are
other scattered colonies of American
Jews in Palestine which may in the
future need some protective steps on
the part Of the United States Gov
eminent.
Appeal Sent to Washington.
Upon the receipt of appeals from
the residents of Ain Hashophet for
some action by the United States
Government to obtain additional Sc
curity for the orange growing Ameri-
can emigres, Mr. Wadsworth brought
the matter to the attention Of the
State Department, and the request for
additional information followed,
The question Of protection of Ameri-
can Jews who have emigrated to
Palestine is complicated by the fact
that large number of them have
taken Palestine citizenship. Not all
have done so, however, and the $500
American nationals who are estimated
at the State Department to be in
Palestine at this moment are pre-
dominantly Jews.
Whether the State Department
would take some steps for the protec-
ton of expatriated American Jews in
the troubled areas of Palestine was
not indicated, but it was pointed out
that American Jews who have not
changed their citizenship are entitled
w QUILL 0ipiOuidtAC plOUCCIAOll dS lli4S
Government can give them.
Ships Use Not Likely.
Any move in this direction would
not be likely to involve the dispatch
ing of portion of the American
squadron to Palestine Great Britain,
as mandatory for Palestine, Is charged
with the policing of the country and
any steps taken would most likely
be in the form of representations to
the British authorities in Palestine
for maximum possible protection of
these colonies of Americans and for
mer Americans.
Americans have a substantial in
vestment in the Holy Land, its
current value being placed at approx
imately s48,0000 900. Five-sixths of
this amount is classified as Jewish.
Jewish interests in this country
allied with the Zionist Organization
of America have established a number
of schools and hospitals in the Holy
Land.
