In Ovfler to create in Palestine a Jewish home unider the mandatory power of | England as decided at the 8an Remo Conference, large sums of money were needed. In 1919 and 1920 drives were made under the name of the Pales- tine Restoration Fund, and while these were successiul, broad enough in their scope and con- trol of the funds lay in the hand of | those enrolled Zionlst members, “This method excluded from p.n!h-l—“ larze | number of people who donated to it | pation in disbursing funds a It had also another defect and that lay in the fact that there was no basis in which to base one's allotment.

Mackay, president of the Commerciai Postal Telegraph system, an- nounced yesterday that his company had just completed a contract with the German Atlantic Cable company, a German corporation, under the terms of which direct cable commun- icatlon with Germany will be restored after a lapse of about eight years. This contract, which has just been signed, calls for the laying of & new cable between New York and Emden, Germany, with the cable touching at the Azores. It is to be completed and in operation by October, 1923. The arrangement provides for The Com- mercial Cable company to lay a cable from New York to the Azores (2,302 | miles) and for the German company connection between the The the to make the at be transferred automatically from one to the other, thus giving what vir- tually will be instantaneous service between the two countries.

The Best Tire On the Road R. M. HEALEY 18 MAIN STREET TEL. 2750 The laying of this new cable is the first attempt at resumption of direct communication between the United States and Germany. During the war there was no cable communication be- tween Cermany and the United States. Since the signing of the armistice, all cable messages sent between the two countries have had to pass either through England or Irance. This ptan has not proven satisfactory to Amer- ican business interests and the new cable 13 being put down in response to a widespread demand on the part of commercial houses, banking insti- tutions and others interested in the trade relations of the United States and Germany for better communica- tion facllities. Prior to the outbreak of the World War there were two cables between the United States and Germany and both were operated by the Commercial Cable company although owned by the German Atlantic Cable company. The first of these was laid in 1900 and the second in 1904, They extend- ed from New York to the Azores and thenee to Emden, Germany The sections between nden and the Azores were cut in the English Channel by the British admiralty within an hour after Great Britain de- clared war upon Germany, August 5, 1914, and from then il March, 1917, lay dormant. arch, 1917, they again were cut by the British government at a point more than 600 miles from New York and one of the cables, under ggreement between NATIONAL MEAT STORES CO. 70 WEST MAIN ST.

Great Britain and France was diverted Into Halifax, Nova Scotia, and Pen- zance, England, and since July 1, 1917, has been used by the British government as part of its imperial telegraph and cable systems. The French government did not re- move the other erstwhile German cable from American shores. But in November, 1817, the French cable- ship “Jeramac” arrived at New York and cut hoth cables some five miles from their landing place at the Comg- mercial Cable company's station at Far Rockaway and diverted one of them into the French Cable com- pany's station at Coney Island. The end diverted to the French Cable company station was put into opera- tion by that company, under control of the French government between New York and Brest, France, via the Azores. “The disposition of these two ex- German cables,” said Mr. Mackay in his statement yesterday, “is now in the hands of the five allied powers to whom the cables were ceded by Germany under the treaty of peace and the Commercial Cable company has filed a very substantial claim against them on account of its for- mer contract for the operation of these cables, which contract was im- possible of resumption at the close of the war because of the seizure of the cables by the British and French governments. In making the contract for the laying of the new German cable the Commercial Cable company in no way cedes any of its rights or claims against the allled powers in connection with the former German cables.” The laying of the new German cable is pnrt of the Commercial Cable company's program of expansion. It recently was announced by that com- pany that it had made application to the state department for a license to lay a second trans-Pacific cable.

Honolulu, Jan. 20.—Prince Tokuga- wa, enroute home from the Washing- ton conference in an address here to- night, compared the feelings of the Japanese delegates on the voyage to Washington three months ago with their present sentiments. Referring to the tempestuous voyage of the Kas hima Maru, which brought the Jap- anese delegation to America, Prince Tokugawa said the stress and storms of that voyage reflected the doubts and misgivings of the delegates. Sim- ilarly, the calm seas and delightful weather of the return voyage he sald, has reflected the sense of peace and geurity felt by the returning members of the party. “If the conference had accomplish- ed no more than the four power Pa- cific treaty,” Prince Tokugawa sald, the | Maple | “it would have been no small achieve- ment. But it did far more. It| brought Far Eastern problems near- er the solution and demonstrated to the world that Japan wants peace and not war. It secured peace for ten years, a period which it seems prob- able will be prolonged indefinitely.” 50 ARE ARRESTED { Caleutta, Jan. 20.—Tifty were arrested by police forces which | dispersed three meetings held in the| prohibited area here.
