It was only a few years ago that England induced the League of Nations to agree to the transfer to the Arabs of the territory east of the Jordan. leaving the territory west of the Jordanthe old Palestine. with Jerusalem as its head city. of courseto be the national home of the Jews. The territory west of the Jordan is a small country. about the size of Vermont or New Hampshire. It was expected that there should be permitted to immigrate to that country thousands and thousands and even millions of Jews who are now oppressed in the various parts of the world. Under this new plan of partitioning the Jews will be given a little strip at the north of Palestine. including. as I read ita very doubtful inclusion at thatthe harbor of Haifa. which is the finest harbor in the Near East. built by Jewish money. It leaves to the Jews the northern part of Palestine. from Haifa across to the Sea of Galilee. and the Valley of Sharon. running down the west coast as far as Tel Aviv.
