The parliamentary committee of
the Jewish Board of Deputies has es-
tablished the fact that the conditions
under which alien Jews are deported
in this country are highly unsatisfac-
tory. The committee cites an in-
stance of a Jewish young man named
Blum who was forced to lease the
country because he failed to notify
the Home Secretary that he had
changed his place of residence. In
another instance a Jew was deported
despite the fact that his wife was on
the eve of confinement and that there
were others who were dependent
upon hint for their maintenance. All
those arriving into the country with-
out the necessary documents are de-
ported even if the court recommends
that they be allowed to remain. Very
unsatisfactory is also the manner in
which deportation cases are handled
by the courts. Often aliens are con-
fined for lengthy periods before their
cases are taken up or they are re-
leased on bail. Considerable excite-
ment prevails among the members of
the Board of Deputies because Sabeg
Montefiore refused to intervene with
the authorities despite the urgent re•
quest of the board.

New Regulations Prohibit All Specula-
tion Is It.
LONDON.—Regulations governing
all land transactions have been issued
by the British Administration in Pal-
estine and are so framed as to pre-
vent every form of land speculation,
says a dispatch from Jerusalem.
All transactions outside of three-
year leases must be registered through
the administration and are not legally
binding until confirmed by the ad-
ministration. Purchases of land can
only be made on condition that a pur-
chaser will cultivate the ground. Spe-
cial provisions are included for the
protection of the small farmer and
the Government imposes a tax of 3
per cent on sales not involving mort-
gages and only 1 per cent when mort-
gages are involved.
"The Voice of Jerusalem," a new
volume from the pen of Israel Zang-
will, has made its appearance in He-
brew. The volume was published, in
Jerusalem and, according to a report
from that city, is the first book to
be granted the privilege of copyright
under the new Palestine regulations.
JERUSALEM, Oct. 8. (Jewish
Telegraphic Agency).—Speaking to-
day at the first annual fleeting of the
Pro-Jerusalem Society, of which he
has been elected Honorary President,
Sir Herbert Samuel, British High
Commissioner for 1'alestine, made a
reference to the revived industries
of Palestine and expressed his belief
that in the near future they will un-
dergo a rapid development.
The Pro-Jerusalem Society has just
received a charter for the preservation
of mediaeval antiquities.
Addressing the meeting of the Pal-
estine Advisory Council, the High
Conunissioner, who presided, said
the Council had a right to congratu-
late itself at the prevailing tranquill-
ity of the country. Of the work be-
ing done to further the interests of
Palestine, Sir Herbert said energetic
measures were being employed to
stamp out malaria, that schools were
being established, that traveling re-
strictions had been removed to the
greatest possible extent and that
negotiations regarding the country's
frontiers were still in progress.
The Advisory Council is composed
of ten members appointed by the
High Commissioner and nine mem-
hers elected by the people.
