"The Voice of Jerusalem"

A Review of Israel Zangwill's Latest Book.

By PHILIP SLOMOVITZ.

will makes his appeal to the Arab
still stronger by asking that the Jews
be given the chance of earning Pal-
estine by the sweat of their own
brows. • The Arabs should not give
Jewish enemies an opportunity of
charging that the Jews are exploit-
ing Arab labor-force.

Zangwill devotes a chapter of his
book, The Legend of the Conquer.
ing Jew," to a masterful presenta-
tion of the facts in the myth of the
Protocols of the elders of Zion. An-
other chapter is devoted to a review
of "Shylock" and other stage Jews.
"The position of Judaism" is re-
printed from the North American
Review of April, 1896. "The Terri-
torial Solution of the Jewish Prob•
lem" is reprinted from the Fortnight.
ly Review of April and May, 1919.
Other chapters deal with "Language
and Jewish Life," "The Mirage of
the Jewish State," "Two Josephs
That Dreamed—Joseph Fels and Jo-
seph Jacobs," and • plea for Ar-
menia. Zangwill also opens for the
first time for the general reader the
treasures of Hebrew devotion, in his
series of "Songs for the Synagogue,"
which are beautifully translated from
the medieval liturgy.

If your wish is for a car beyond whose ex-
cellence no step has yet been taken, be sure
you see, and ride in, the Packard Twin-Six.
In no other vehicle is so much power joined
to such smoothness and quiet. In no
other is so much speed knit to safety, so much
beauty linked to strength, so much comfort
yoked to style. The Packard Twin-Six is in
all ways truly representative of a Company
that for twenty years has held the quality
of its product above considerations of price.
Not in this country or elsewhere, will you
find another vehicle in which efficiency
and elegance are so expertly combined.
