Since the settlement of the Jews in Palestine, numerous new Arab companies and co-operatives have been registered. The Arab Agricultural Bank now has a paid-up capital ,of £95,000, and in the past few years the capital of this bank increased from £15,000 to £45,000. 5. The manner in which Arab towns have benefitted by building activity in the country is shown by the following figures: Arab towns increased their building ac- tivity by 252 per cent from 1924 when £51,160 were spent on building, as corn- pared with £128,000 in 1934. In towns of mixed Jewish and Arab population, Arabs inevitably benefitted by building activity, which increased 868 per cent from 1932 when £430,560 were spent, as com- pared with £3,740,000 in 1934. 6. The vast increase in wages and em- ployment has been so definitely in favor of the Arabs that this point must be stressed. In Iraq and Egypt, the average daily wage is 4 to 5 piastres a day for unskilled labor, but in Palestine, the daily wage is from 10 -to 15 piastres a day. Skilled Arab laborers earn the same as Jews—i. e.— 40 to 60 piastres a day. The Jewish colonies employ a much larger number of Arabs than they do Jews. In February of 1935, there were 2,882 Jews employed in the four leading orange growing colonies as compared with 8,214 Arabs, and in August of 1935 in the same four colonies, there were employed 1,484 Jews, as compared with 2,326 Arabs. 7. Similarly large gains,have been made by the Arabs in education. The percen- tage of literate people among the Pales- tinian Moslems is 23. as compared with 20.3 in Egypt and 11.3 in Turkey. These are just a few facts showing the vast gains made by Arabs as a result of Jewish settlement of Palestine. To speak, therefore, of the Jews as expropriators of the Moslems is to misrepresent facts and to misstate truth. In the interest of truth, we hope that these facts will re- ceive the light of day as a means of re- futing the unjust manner in which the Jewish angle is treated in the present Palestinian crisis. Sympathetic editorials of the type that appeared in the Detroit Free Press on Aug. 31 serve greatly to encourage us and to assure us that we have not lost all our friends, that we shall yet have the support that comes from a true spirit of good will and from genuine understanding of human problems.

Before the buzzer rings Smoky is very quiet, so that Miss Colbert can sleep, but as soon as she signals for him he breaks his silence and rushes to the room to wait for her to take him on his morning walk. Oh, my! ACCENT OF GENEROSITY Maurice R. Shochatt, writer of that interesting and popular fea- ture in the Baltimore Jewish Times, "Monumental Sidelights," writes us of an unusual and pleas- ant incident about the noted play- wright, Samson Raphaelson. As you need not be told, Raphaelson is the same gentleman who is re- sponsible for "The Jazz Singer," a sparkling stage and screen hit that brought gelt and glick to George (mama on the telephone) Jessel and Al (mammy) Jolson. "The Jazz Singer" was the first talking motion picture production, and the 10th anniversary of that great event, which revolutionized the film industry, is now being cel- ebrated by Warner Bros. To get back to Shochatt's story told to this column, the Alliance Players, a Jewish amateur theat- ricalegroup of Baltimore, decided in 1935 to climax a season of ac- tivity with a presentation of the The Jazz Singer." The Jewish troupers, however, faced a problem. A royalty fee had to be coughed up for the prodliction—but the treasury was as empty as a beg- gar's cup on a rainy day. The thespians decided to communicate with the Jewish playwright to ob- tain "a special dispensation from the copyright owner." The players wrote to three or four publishers, the Author's Guild, the play- wright's secretary. And finally a letter in which the players asked permission to stage the play sans a royalty tax—reached Raphaelson. The same letter—opened and read by the author—came back a few days later . . . Across the script above the signature of Raphaelson were scrawled two laconic phrases: "Good luck to you. Shoot the works." As a postacript to this true story we might add that the Al- liance Player's production of this play was acclaimed one of the smoothest ever staged by an ama- teur group. This item is also of particular interest at this time in view of the fact that Al Jolson, Vera Cordon and others recently presented The Jazz Singer" on the radio, and the report that this picture may he filmed again. NEWS BITS In order to accept new offers of motion picture work, Benny Fields, I "your minstrel man" of many years on the stage, cancelled train reservations and indefinitely post- poned his return to New York with his wife, Blossom Seeley.

With that principle I challenge every Jew in this na- tion to tell me that he does believe or does not believe in it. I thought of what the Jew Jesus might say to him. Jesus would wipe away the mud into which he had fallen and weep for him, His ser- vant, and speak with gentle reproach: "Is it for My servant to increase falsehood in a world of lie? Is it for him to multiply hate? Thou, My servant! "0, My servant! Didst thou forget what I taught thee for 2,000 years: The teaching of jus- tice and loving-kindness, the teaching of good will, the teaching to put away all manner of spite and falsehood? t"Thou, My servant!" Jesus would have no scourging for the priest who descended from the Mount, no more than He had for the erring woman who was brought to Him for judgment. The gentle Jew would kiss his cheek: "Go thou, My poor Charles, and sin no more." • • • "I am not asking the Jews of the United Slates to accept Christianity in all its belief, but, since their system of a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye has failed, that they ac- cept Christ's principle of brotherhood."
