PALESTINE JEWS WOULD
RETAIN JEWISH LEGION
J
CSA EM.—The "Vogul Haz-
mani," the temporary body of organ-
ized Palestine Jewry, has submitted
a memorandum to Sir Herbert Sam-
uel. the British High Commissioner
in this country. in which it is request-
ed that the Jewish Legion at fires-
Hut tinder arms should not be dis-
. lianded as is contemplated by the
g , ,, eminent but should be added to
out enlarged into a permanent Jew-
ish Defense force. The committee
took this action at the initiation of
Vladimir Jabotinsky who attended the
last meeting of the "Veal Ilazmani"
and determinedly fought for this defi-
nite attitude on the part of Palestine'
Jewry. The committee appointed
Jabotinsky, Shocliet and Berlin as a
special commission to handle
the
'natter of ilii• Legion.
The l-egion
has a number of American volun-
teers, Sainuel's attitude in the mat-
ter is unknown.

LONDON.— In a special interview,
Leon Kameneff, head of the Soviet
Delegation in England, stated that of
all people in Soviet Territory today,
the Jews were subject to the great-
est difficulties and suffered the 111051.
Because the Jews are essentially a
middle class people, the new social
order in Russia has completely de-
stroyed their economic basis.
Asked as to whether he could sug-
gest a remedy to better their condi-
tion Katneneff said that he believed
that ..when normal conditions set in,
they would work the industries and a
gradual readjustment would be ef-
fected.
When it was suggested to Kame-
neff that the Bolsheviki were deliber-
ately persecuting the Zionists, he very
emphatically denied that the Soviet
government had any official attitude
towards the national aspirations of
the Jews. The Zionists, he said, were
prosecuted not at all because they
were Zionists but because of their
individual leanings and acts. A large
numbest of leading Zionists, lie said,
were known to have been in commu-
nication with the Allies and were
spreading their propaganda, and they
were treated accordingly. At present
the Zionists are not interfered with
and Moscow Zionists only recently
held a public meeting at which they
sommemorated Dr. Ilerzl,
