The Star believes that no other writer is so well fitted to tell the story of Palestine in this war. Bernstein’s articles will last thruout the week of December 10. The first will be published on Monday of that week and the rest will run daily until the full story of Palestine’s woes and suffering is told. They will detail the terrible atrocities that have been inflicted by the Germans and Turks on the Jewish colonists in Holy Land. The Seattle Star has arranged for the publication. of half a dozen articles of the foremost importance on the Warfare in Palestine—the Promised Land of the Jewish People and the Cradle of Christianity. They are from the pen of Herman Bernstein, founder of the great Jewish daily of New York, The Day, and editor of the American Hebrew. a Secccccccccccecoooccne ileal 1 BERNSTEIN ~TheSeattleStar 3% WEATHER FORECAST: Tonight and Sonday, THE GREATEST DAILY CIRCULATION OF ANY PAPER IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST probably rain or snow; moderate southerly winda a SEATTLE, WASH.
