What is most important. however. is neither the motive behind Britains policy in Palestine. nor even its legality. but the effect of this policy on the Jewish question. which has become so important for the welfare of the world. This effect is a bad one. To reduce the malignant power of antiSemitism in Europe. to give an outlet to Jewish need for emigration from Central Europe without endangering the delicate balance of population existing in western countries. Palestine was internationally designated as the place where facilities for largescale Jewish colonization should be provided. and where Jews should regain political nationhood. This aim was hitherto prevented from materializing. and an important objective of international stabilization was frustrated. We know that a large movemen of Jewish emigration will develop after the war in certain parts of the world. and that this migration movement will raise in many respects problems different from those of the migration movements of other groups. We face here a special problem. and to solve it special steps are required. A large number of Jews in the world who have been completely uprooted will wish to start a new life in a Jewish country.
