Palestine was pictured as a land populated with happy, contented fam- illes, from which will emunate peace and prosperity for all mankind, by Nahun Sokdlow, leader in the Zionist movement, in the course of an address at Poli's Theater last night during a meting arranged by local Jews. “Let us pray and hope that the day is not far off when Judaism will have & home and a place and will be a fac tor in the peace of the world,” he de- clared. “A nation whose people live in small, happy homés, with small gar- dens; a people contented and a coun- try prosperous and striving to bring peace and prosperity to the world— that is what Palestine will become when the prophesy of God is fulfilled and the Jews are given possession of the land which was their fathers and { which He has said would be theirs. “It is not intended that P’alestine be used as a political experiment, or a 'lnnd for political ambitions. It will in - the world, fervently wish, a saparate unit will, we ibe | whence emanate the peace and prosperity of souri also spoke.

Those who are obey- ing the law are being ground to pieces by its very operation, while those who are violating the law are resping unheard-of rewards. Ever rule of justice has been reversed.
