The results of the British elections
are a source of joy to the Zionists.
The Palestine question is not new in
British politics. At the election pre-
ceding the last one Zionism was in-
troduced by the enemies of the Jewish
nationalist movement. In this elec-
tion, too, Captain Foxcroft, who as-
sured the Arabs during a recent visit
to Palestine that he would oppose
Zionism inure strenuously in the new
Parliament, introduced Zionism in his
campaign. But Foxeroft was defeat-
ed and the British Labor party and
the Lloyd George Liberals, the strong-
est supporters of Zionism, are in
power with a big majority between
them. What ever the divisions may
be on other questions that may arise
in Parliament, it is certain that the
Zionists have nothing to fear. The
British pledge will be kept, so long as
the Jews themselves are firm for the
realization of the national ideal, the
many obstacles in the way notwith-
standing.

This agency came into existence in response to a need which
could not be satisfied with the then existing news services inas-
much as existing services could not adequately and completely
cover the wide range of distinctly Jewish news, for it is an in-
disputable fact that since the close of the war and the creation
of the Palestine Mandate, that Jewish activities, both pleasant
and unpleasant have increased many fold. To keep world Jew-
ry accurately informed without delay became an important
problem, and the J. T. A. has successfully met the situation.
We in America, who are in imminent danger of an enforced
exclusiveness, due to the impending immigration restrictions,
will find the J. T. A. of increasing value. Everyone must ad-
mit that European Jewry has watered the partly withered tree
of American Jewish life, that we have in a great measure de-
pended upon them for the yeast to ferment. an often sodden
mass, and that we have received from them the spiritual con-
tributions which has prevented us from forgetting our origins.
With these direct physical influences cut off we must find other
means of keeping our interest in Jewish affairs alive, and the
