Hoover Makes
Suggestion

NEW YORK CITY, (JTA) :
Former President Herbert Hoov-
er in statement issued here this
week, proposed moving Palestine'S
Arabs to reclaimed land in Iraq
| in order to settle the Palestine
problem.
His suggestion, based on the
findings of a British report, is
that Iraq be aided to reconstruct
the ancient irrigation works of
the Tigris and Euphrates valleys.
The report referred to by Mr..
Hoover was made by Sir William
Wilcox, an eminent British en-
gineer, 80 years ago. He estimat-
ed that about 2,8OOO,OOO acres of
the most fertile land in the world
could be recovered at a cost UNI
der $15O,OOO,OOO.
The idea of moving the Arabs
out of Palestine, according to the
former President, was originally
suggested by the British Labor
Party in December, 1914. How
ever, he said, at that time, they
had no adequate plan as to
where and how they were to
CO."
Mr.. Hoover also stated that this
particular land was, at one time,
suggested as a place of settle
ment by Jewish refugees, but
added that this did not satisfy
the Jewish desire for home
land"

GOODBYE,
MIR. SMITH?
"HERO" TURNS BEGGAR:

Believe it or not, but Gerald
L. K. Smith has run out of money
and faces the danger" of not be-
ing able to continue his anti-Jew-
ish American-First activities
lat least this is what he himself
says in a four-page letter under
his own signature :. In this let
ter he relates with great gusto
how Jewish organizations 81
nanced and aided" the fight
against him in the West And
how a mob of 10000 = mostly
young Jews = was organized" in
Los Angeles to break up his first
meeting there To make him
self even more important, he tells
story of how he was about to
be kidnapped before the meeting
started every evil thing
imaginable has been planned" he
boasts And, of course, some
thing over 200 Jewish organiza-
lions - no more and no less =
were among the planners =. Oh,
yes! Eddie Cantor, that erich
movie and radio STAR" was re-
sponsible for all the commotion :.
He is supposed to have put up "a
large sum of money" to make
Smiths life miserable in Los An
geles And there were over
5000 picket signs which must
have cost at least $4,000 .. {.
Prior to the meeting, threat
ening delegation, led by Eddie
Cantor, tried to intimidate the
Los Angeles school board" to
prevent Smith from holding his
meeting in a local high school {.
But the "brave" Gerald L. K.
Smith got what he wanted {.
He risked his life and held his
meeting Gin spite of virtual
threats of bloodshed" Is this
not worth even one dollar? s.. &.
Must crusader like Gerald L
K. Smith be confronted with fail
ure through no other cause than
the lack of sufficient money? {.
"What a tragedy and what a
shame!" Smith complains in his
letter Surely if a "hero" like
Smith is willing 'to face these
mobs" and to deny himself "the
comforts of home, any American
Firster should be willing to give
him a dollar donation And
this is all that Mr.. Smith appeals
for Just one dollar for his
treasury :. Or, if you contribute
five dollars, you will get a nice
anti-Semitic book on the Gold
smiths and the Rothschilds
To think that America may no
longer hear Gerald L. K. Smith
because he has funds =. What
calamity!-(J.T.A.)

carry luck. Wish everyone you meet
"A Happy New Year." but remem-
Der when the greeting is given to
cross your fingers for luck. Be sure
to say rabbits" as the first word
when you wake before anyone has
had chance to speak to you.
Loves progress, will be aided on
New Years Day if you are careful
to put on the left stocking before the
right. The potency of this charm
is supposed to be increased if you
do all things as far as possible left
handedly during the day.
To open a bank account on New
Years Day was considered lucky
in Old England, the custom growing
probably from the belief of many
centuries that whatever you do on
the first day of the year will be an
indication of what will happen dur.
ing the months that will follow.
In some parts of England and Scot
land it is supposed to be unluclzy to
leave a house until some outsider
has first entered it.

from the peak levels established
this year, the State Department
of Agriculture has been informed
by the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics.
''Net income of farmers in 1916
may decline as much as Is per
cent from 1945-although the in
dicated total would still be more
than double the pre-war average
and higher than in any year prior
to 1943, including the peak years
Immediately after World War l."
said the report.
! Cash receipts from farm mar
ketings in 1916 are expected to
be a little over Is billion dollars,
with Government payments
bringing total receipts up to
about 19 billion dollars, 10 per
cent less than in 1945. Income
from crops during 1946 probably
will decline almost Is per cent
below 1945 and cash receipts from
livestock and livestock products
may be down about 5 to 10 per
cent. With average crop condi-
tions, the total volume of mar
keting in 1946 probably will be
about S per cent below 1945. The
volume of 1945 crops carried over
and marketed during the first
half of 1916 may be nearly as
great as the large quantity of
1914 crops sold in 1945, but, with
only average crop production in
1916, total crop marketings for
the calendar year will be less
than in 1945. Also, a slight de-
cline is expected in the volume
of poultry and eggs sold.
Total cash receipts from farm
marketings in 1945 probably will
be about $29, ,4O0,OOO,OO0, 7 per
cent above the receipts of $19,-
300, 100000 in 1914. In addition,
Government payments are ex-
pected to total about $8OO,0O0,O0O,
about the same as in 1914.

New Years Blessings
Ancient Swiss Legend

According to Swiss legend, the
Holy Family is abroad during the
hour of midnight mass on Christ
mas Eve.
Therefore, a bowl of fresh milk
is placed upon the dining table
and each member of the house.
hold carefully lays his spoon upon
the table cloth.
The person who, returning from
church, finds his spoon has been
moved may anticipate special
blessings during the coming year:
for surely Mary and Joseph have
rested within the abode during
their Flight into Egypt and the
Virgin used that spoon to feed the
Infant Jesus.
