The events at the Wailing Wall
were the subject of much debate
in the British Parliament, as a re- •
sult of which the Secretary of
'State fur the Colonies published a
White Paper giving the govern-
ment's view on the subject.

OLDSMOBILE

Thousands upon thousands of motorists
in every section of the country have
seen the new Viking—have pronounced
it "a great car"—and have hailed its in-
troduction as "a significant event in
automotive history."

At the same time Oldsmobile—the fine
car of low price —continues to achieve
new heights of popularity and to win
ever-increasing numbers of buyers
throughout America.

No other car at its price offers more
brilliant all-round performance. Olds-
mobile is designed to do all things well.
Its big 62-horsepower engine provides
power for any emergency—speed to ful-
fill every desire—acceleration to take
the lead at the signal change or to sweep
past other cars on the road.

Its exceptional smoothness continues

formance, it has a silenced chassis and

lic shock absorbers and deep-cushioned,
form-fitting seats provide easy riding.
Among the many conveniences for the
driver are the adjustable front seat, ad-
justable steering wheel, restful pad-type
accelerator, and gasoline gauge and tem-
perature gauge on the dash.

Similarly, the new Viking, in the
medium-price field, offers a degree of

luxury heretofore characteristic of only
the most expensive motor cars.

The Viking brings to the medium-price
field the luxurious performance quali-

ties of an 81-horsepower, 90-degree,

throughout the entire speed range. It
provides greater speed than the average
motorist requires, and ample power for
steep hills and hard pulling.

Viking bodies by Fisher arc smartly
styled and trimly tailored. In keeping
with their beauty, they are roomy,
comfortable, and handsomely appointed.
Springs are perfectly synchronized with
four Lovejoy hydraulic shock absorbers
to assure luxurious riding case. Self-
energizing four-wheel brakes of the in-
ternal-expanding type provide smooth,
quiet, rapid deceleration. Thermostati-

Unless you want a car in the very low-

Oldsmobile or Viking model to exactly
suit your needs. No matter which car

All these events occurred be
tween the time of the resignatio
of Lord Plummer as High Commis
shiner and the appointment of hi
successor, Sir John Robert Chan
cellor, formerly governor and cam
mander-intchief of South Rho
desia, Mauritus, Trinidad, and To
bulge, who was appointed in Jul
and who arrived in Palestine the
following December. Early in
July the administration promul-
gated an ordinance exempting re-
ligious, charitable and educational
institutions from the payment of
' taxes and customs duties, and in
the same month it was announced
'that elementary education was to•
' be the function of local munici-
nullities which were to be given the
power of taxation fur the support
of elementary schools. In August
the government announced that
the Nark,,, the burdensome prop
erty tax, was to be gradually abol
ished. Shortly after he took office
Sir John Chancellor made efforts
to induce the Moslems to exchange
the property near the Wailing
Wall for another district, but
without success; the Moslems also
objected to the suggestion made
by him that the property be trans-
ferred to the High Commissioner,
who would later make it available
to the Jews. When all possibilities.

Jewish leaders the opinion that
the best course of action is
silence."

In April, the Times, London,
stated that on March 31 Palestine
had a total population of 794,51.5,
of which number 557,649 were
Moslems, 149,553 Jews, 78,483
Christians, and 8,850 others, From
a report issued by the Palestine
Government Ilealth Department
covering the year 1927 it appears
that the birth rate among Jews
Was 35 ter 1,000 of the Jewish
population; that among Christians
was 39, and among Moslems 56. ,
The adult death rate among Jews
also is lowest, being 13, while
among the Christians it is 20, and
among the Moslems 33, That there
was an increase in crime during
1928 as compared with 1927 is
shown by the report of the police
department; there were 4,235
crimes in 1928 as compared with
3,656 in 1927.
By the first of October, 1928, a
total of 80,000 men and women
had registered as members of the
Jewish community of Palestine
undre the Religious Communities
Organization Ordinance promul-
gated in 1926. Those Jews author-
ing to the Orthodox body, Agudath
Israel, declined so to register, de-
manding that right to organize and
maintain a community organiza-
tion of their own. Figures pub-
lished in December showed that of
the 80,000 registrantts, no less
than 56,000 (70 per cent) resided
in five cities, viz., Jerusalem (17,-1
900), Tel Aviv (28,500), Haifa
(7,500-, and Tiberias (2,400).

the Jews and the Arabs on the
