which will serve Palestine's post
war trade and carry it's expected
immigration traffic.
Educational Progress
Palestine's educational and Gull
tural activities were not affected
by the war. The school system
of the Vaad, Leumi, National
Council, expanded further, mark
ing an increase in the number of
its schools, teachers, and enroll
ment. The higher educational in
situations, the Hebrew University
in Jerusalem and the TECHNOLOGY
cal Institute in Haifa, continued
their gradual development. In
spite of the scarcity of paper,
eight daily papers appear in in
Tel Aviv, and book publishing
is seemingly thriving. Theatri-
cal and musical activities pro-
coed normally.
In spite of wartime difficulties
the health conditions remained
satisfactory, and there is even
further decline in infant mortality.
PrOVOcatiOn
While Palestine's Jewry was
able during the year to maintain,
and even strengthen it's economic
position it was greatly disturbed
| by developments in the political
field. In it's frantic effort to in
sure the continuance of the
White Paper policy, aimed at the
curtailment of the Jewish Nation
al Home the MacMichael admin
istration, with the probable ap-
prevail of the pro-Arab officials
in the British Colonial Office, did
it's best to weaken and compro-
mise the Jewish status in Pales-
tine. An arms trial in Jerusalem,
in which two Jews were accused
of buying weapons stolen from
British military camps, was trans
formed into a "cause celebre" for
the purpose of revealing all al
legged Jewish conspiracy to seize
Palestine in defiance of Great Bril-
tain and her allies. Even the
large scale recruiting of Jewish
volunteers for the British Army
was presented as a part of the
scheme.
Even sharper resentment among
Jews was caused by mass searches
for arms in Jewish Villages,
which were repeatedly objects of
Arab attack during the riots of
1936-1938. One of these searches,
in Ramath Hakovesh, resulting in
the death of one of the settlers,
and the arrest of thirty-five 9TH
ers for resisting the attempt to
disarm them, lead to angry dem
onstrations, and armed clashes be-
tween Jewish youths and British
policemen.
Toward A New Day
All these incidents created an
atmosphere in which a small
group of Jewish terrorists saw a
fitting occasion for its irrespon-
sible activities. Government Of
fees were bombed in the dark
of the night, to demonstrate de-
fiance of Britain's anti-ZioniSt
policy, and in several cases British
policemen were attacked. Whe-
Their the latest attempt on the
life of the High Commissioner
MacMichael was made by the
same Jewish group, or by Arab
provocateurs, is at the time of this
writing an open question.
Generally speaking the political
situation became somewhat calm
er at the end of the year. 1t
seems that responsible govern
mont leaders in London. alarmed

Will Try to Grow
Poplars On Spoil
Banks In County
State Forestry Department Elk.
perimenting In Tree Planting

An experiment on some strip coal
land is being carried out in this
county, it was announced by Joseph
f, kaylor, state forester, who was
here several days last week in COM
pany with William II. Johnson,
Cumberland, district forester.
Mr.. Kaylor said they had planted
400 varieties Of hybrid poplar trees,
secured from federal agency, and
that the paintings were done on
freshly made spoil banks caused by
these strip coal operations, in an at
tempt to determine what varieties of
the poplars will survive in Garrett
County climatic conditions.
Mr.. Kaylor said these poplars have
been grown in sections of the United
States where temperature drops to 40
below zero and that some of the varie-
ties should be adaptable here.
Concentration of minerals and a
tight clay soil make it difficult to
grow any vegetation on spoil banks,
he said
He pointed out that a further use
of the fast growing poplars, if they
could be grown here, would be for
pulpwood in from ten to fifteen years.
The experiments are being con-
Quoted on state owned land at the
present time, Mr.. Kaylor said.
