illegal immigrants covered per-
sons entering the country in vio-
lation of the White Paper or in
contravention of the Mandate, and
pointed out that the Mandate was
an international convenant, en-
couraging instead of forbidding
immigration. The Chief Secretary
was forced to admit that there is
a labor shortage in Palestine and
marked difference between the
Jewish and Arab living standards.
He was corrected by the CZecho-
slovak delegate, an encyclopedia,
when he stated enormously that
the Arab seaport town of Jaffa
had no Jews.
The question of irregular i'm
migration was brought up at the
closed hearings by DR.. Granados,
of Guatemala, who asked if it was
illegal under the White Paper
or under the Mandate, by which
Britain is bound. The Chief Sec
retary replied that the Mandate
was document, not law, where
upon DR.. Granados pointed out
that there had been covenant
and asked whether it wasn't il
legal to violate a covenant. Chair
man Sandstroem asked for a def
milton of the term illegal immi-
grant" Gurney replied that this
was one who attempted to enter
the country contrary to the laws
of Palestine.
The Indian delegate, Sir Abdur
Rahman, changed the subject by
asking the number of native Pal
estinians in the higher ranks of
the Government. The Chief Sec
retary replied that there were two
Palestinian assistant district COM
missioners out of thirty nine, but
there are no Arabs or Jews in the
Advisory Council. The Indian
then wanted to know what pro-
portion of the Governments rev.
enue was spent on Arab educa-
ton. The Chief Secretary replied
that is was not as much as the
Government would like. Asked
about the growth of the Arab
population of the country, he said
it was caused by natural increase,
not immigration.
He claimed that the marked diff
ference in Arab and Jewish liv-

Homes of Presidents.
In the foothills of the Blue Ridge
is Jefferson's beloved Monticello,
reached by winding roadway
lined with golden forsythia and
snowy white bridal wreath. The Blue
Ridge mountains and the rolling
Piedmont provide picturesque set
ting and trees and shrubs planted
by the hand of Jefferson nod to one
another across the white portals Of
one of the most beautiful houses in
all America.
Just over the line in Orange coun-
ty with venerable weeping willow
at its gateway is Montpelier, home
Of James Madison, fourth president
of the United States, and his charm
ing wife, Dolly. This imposing and
gracious mansion, set far back be-
hind green lawns, is surrounded by
breath-taking drifts Of color in the
springtime.
In WestmOreland county, not
far from the Potomac, is the
great house of Stratford, which
in all it's simplicity and dignity
probably has harbOred more
men of eminence than any other
residence in Virginia. Built by
Thomas Lee, acting colonial
governor of Virginia more than
200 years ago, StratfOrd was the
birthplace Of FIVE patriots of the
Revolution, two signers of the
Declaration of Independence
and Virginia's own Robert E.
Lee, SON of Light Horse Har-
ry," who long called Stratford
'home."
Fredericksburg, George Washing
toms first "home town." has all the
charm of an old valentine. Here
imagination and memory play tag
along old brick sidewalks, past half
hidden gardens and mellow brick
homes dreaming in the sunshine be-
hind white doorways with shiny
brass knockers. Here Mary Wash
ington, mother Of George, greeted
the Marquis de Lafayette on his
way to Yorktown and on the steps
of the little cottage she kissed her
famous son goodbye. Along these
streets, which all called home,
walked John Paul Jones, Matthew
Fontaine Maury, pathfinder of the
seas, and Lewis Littlepage, only
American citizen ever to hold office
in the cabinet of king.
Next to Mary Washington's home
is Kenmore, home of her daughter
Betty, wife of Col. Fielding Lewis,
who gave his fortune and his life to
the cause of the Revolution.
Fascinating History.

what | gather from the OTC this
is correct. 1t will take an appro-
priation of some $6,O00,000 from
the Congress to adequately staff
the OTC to process these cases.
"The question then boils down
to this: If the OTC is used to
alleviate hardship for landlords,
it willie ost the taxpayers of the
