I do not think there was a single vote in opposition to it. I regret that this declaration. which was a solemn covenant upon the part of Great Britain. is being broken. and the Jewish homeland is being denied the protection which is guaranteed in this mandate and in the guarantees of the Allies and associated powers. With the millions that the Jews are pouring into Palestine they buy land. they build roads. they open schools. they provide hospitals. they drain swamps. they reclaim land. they dig irrigation ditches. they plant orchards. they construct homes. they tap new water sources. they provide and give innumerable services. including assistance to new immigrantsall in a gigantic effort to bring Jews to Palestine and to prepare Palestine for the Jew. Daily. through their combined work. the two outstanding Zionist and Jewish organizationsthe Jewish National Fund and the Foundation Fundcreate ever larger opportunities for immigration into Palestine. Every dollar they collect from the Jews of America and from Jews in all other portions of the world these organizations spend in a constructive effort to reclaim the Holy Land and to reconstitute life anew for the homeless. driven children of Israel of continental Europe. Palestine challenges not alone the Jew but the whole Christian world as the one bright constructive and promising achievement of our present generation.
