Explanation of
What Goes on
In Palestine
THE RAPE OF PALESTINE
By Bernard Zif
Argus, $1.OO


In view Of the current contro-
versial events now transpiring in
the Holy Land, this re-edition OF
William B. Ziff's classic ''The Rape
of Palestine" with a new fore
word and epilogue, is badly need
ed today and is sure to excite the
widest possible discussion.
This edition Of ''The Rape of
Palestine" answers the vital ques-
tions: what are the moral issues
involved in the Palestine contro-
versy; and where do the material
interests Of the United States lie?
In a situation befogged by cease
less propaganda from interested
sources a clear view Of what is in
volved is of material Importance
to the American people who are
frankly bewildered as to the real
situation and hence as to Ameri-
cas- proper course in it.
The prophetic vision Of William
B. Tiff, distinguished author Of
"The Coming Battle Of Germany,
The Gentlemen Talk Of Peace"
and the current 1.-TWO Worlds"
never has been demonstrated more
clearly than in the present book,
"The Rape of Palestine. It's clar-
ity Of view and shrewd insight into
real conditions makes this volume,
originally published in 1888, as
powerful and important as if it
had been published yesterday.
Tiff saw coming all the events
which today are crowding the
news. He outlined in carefully
documented analysis the struggle
which was even then arising be-
tween the British and Jews for
possession Of Palestine, and pre-
dicted with absolute logic the
whole pattern of affairs which has
since ensued. Herein, perhaps. is
the chief value Of the book for
Americans, giving credence to
lifts latest estimates Of the stu
alton and Of the direction Ameri-
can policy must take in reference
to it.
