with the stories of poor Jewish ped-

tailors, who were transformed into
large manufacturers; and of insig-

position of prominent bankers. We

cumbered by two or more mortgages
—so that he might have some free
capital to continue his business oper-
ation. Yet, in Palestine, we have the
spectacle of Tel Aviv, the Jewish
suburb of Jaffa—incidentally, the most
successful business accomplishment in
the whole country—with real estate
values of over £1,000,000, and which
(exclusive of a . ridiculously small in-
itial loan. amounting to less than I%
of the value), does not carry a single
mortgage or loan on the entire prop-
erty. %With proper financial institu-
tions, at least i500,000 could have
been secured on this real estate as
security—a large sum which could

communities in which "every man
shall sit under his own pine tree or fig
tree (if in Palestine), and yet, where
communal life will converge towards
the civic center of the many small
farming estates. In the west, such a
concept is described by the words
"Garden City," but in Palestine, I have
heard it talked about as the "Garden
Village Idea."
Perhaps the thing that impressed
me most in my three 'months' stay in
Palestine was this groping towards
the ideal communal life. This longing
for the "better life" is not confined to
theorists and dreamers. It is the
dream of very' practical WWII, who
have helped to build up Tel Aviv. It
is not a result merely of careful think-
ing, but it is a practical reaction front
the crowded life of Tel Aviv itself.
The Jews who built Tel Aviv have
felt the oppressive air of city life and
lack of elbow room. Some very pro-
pressive spirits are, therefore, now
working for the development of Gar-
den Villages, in which each house will
be set in a garden plot of between five
and ten dunam of land (approximately
one and a half to two and a half
acres), which will give each family a
"Homestead and a Garden." These
gardens will be not merely orna-
mental, but extremely useful. The
family will derive therefrom not only
the pleasures of suburban life, but also
some of the physical requirements for
the family table—fruits, vegetables,
poultry and eggs.
Garden Village Idea.
But this is not all. The hundred
families, living in the hundred houses,
set in garden plots—the total occupy-
ing au area not exceeding 1,000 dunam
or about 250 acres—will still keep us
dependent upon the peasantry for
foodstuffs. Men with the Garden Vil-
lage idea would have us build, as near-
ly as possible, self-sufficient villages,
each village to be surrounded with
agricultural land to the extent of three
or four times the area of the village
itself. Thus, the houses of the Garden
Village would form the community
center, the Kernel, as it wefr, of each
settlement. But for every acre oc-
cupied by the house and garden,
there would be at least three acres,
on the periphery of the community
center, as farming lands. From this
village farm, the community would de-
rive foodstuffs and various plantation
products. This village farm might be
worked co-operatively by the village
or by individuals, under the general
control of the village council, but the
constant aini would be to free the Gar-
den Village from dependence (only
too prevalent at the present time)
upon the Aral) peasantry.
We might easily be able to plant in
Palestine two or three thousand gar-
den villages, with a total population
in excess of 1,000,000 Jews. Many or
the settlers in Garden Villages would
be farmers, some operating as tenants,
and others as part owners of the vil-
lage farm, but the majority would
consist, undoubtedly, of artisans, pro-
fessional men, traders and small man-
ufacturers. Yet, all would have the
benefit from the. extra income derived
from the vegetable patch and the
poultry yard. Such industrial agri-
culture is particularly acceptable to
the Jew, for it would still permit him
to exercise his economic talents in in-
dustry—upon which the future of
l'alestine depends—yet, without dis-
carding the advantages of rural com-
Agriculture Not Al.
But if any consideration of pure
idealism, any undue regard for the
holiness of agriculture means the un-
dermining of our ability for the com-
mercial conquest of the Holy Land,
'then it is inevitable that we must fail
in our project of recreating the Jew-
ish Palestine. "Man does not live by
bread alone," and no country today is
economically free that relies exclu-
sively upon agriculture: There must
be a balanced economic development
in which agriculture, industry and
commerce play each their respective
and important roles.
The only difference is that in Pales-
tine the problem is complicated by the
fact that on an agricultural basis
alone we can never secure a sufficient
number of Jew's to obtain a majority
—to make it a Jewish Palestine. In
a country where not more than 5,000,-
001) acres are available for agriculture
—we shall be unable to outnumber the
present non-Jewish majority of 600,-
00), except under conditions that will
be tantamount to an industrialization
of our whole agricultural system—by
an intensified culture and the growth
of industries for by-products, so that
our farms will more nearly resemble munities.

NEW JUDAEAN CLUB
To the many Young Judanan clubs
now existing In Detroit another club
was added last Sunday, at the home
of Mr. Lazaruff. on Fisher avenue.
This club will be known as "The
Shomerim (Guards) of Judaea" and
will be under the leadership of Mr.
S. Lehrman, leader of the Stars of
Judaea, The club had a large enrol-
ment and promises to be an active
circle and will bring In closer touch
the Jews of the east limits of Detroit.
