babe and no scribe could pen
the words that would do justice
to the innate fineness of the
Dienuhin family group. There
is a bond of unity and under-
standing that leads to mysticism
-and of their graciousness. All
questions were answered direct-
ly and without evasion, no mat-
ter which one of the family I
addressed.
THEY KNOW HEBREW
Yaltah, the youngest and 14
years of age, insisted on telling
the Interviewer she looked Ital-
ian, and this led immediately
into the questions closest to the
heart, i. e. Hebrew, the Pales-
tinian orchestra and matters
pertaining to the Dickstein Im-
migration Bill, which will affect
foreign artists if it comes into
effect.
The elder Menuhins and Ye-
hudi know Hebrew, and they all
speak Italian, French, German,
Spanish, Russian and English.
Yehudi was born in New York
City and later the family mov-
ed to San Francisco, where
Hephzibah and Yaltah were
born.
The Palestinian Orchestra,
which Toscanini directed re-
cently, was then brought up.
Mother Menuhin, with Yehudi
nodding assent, ventured that
they were interested in the or-
chestra in a national way, and
in this way would be glad to
contribute towards it. They
made this statement in a broad
sense.
The Dickstein Immigration
Bill was the closest topic to
Yehudi and the Menuhin fam-
ily In general. Said Yehudi: "I
am strongly opposed to the
Dickstein Bill, as it is so un-
American and interferes with
the American birthright of fair
play. In Europe they give all
American artists a chance, any
artist gets a hearing, why
should they bar European art-
ists in America?"

Nevertheless. the Jewish
population there has doubled dur-
ing the last 10 years, growing
from 3,882 to 7,969.
Emek Zebulun and Emek Jen-
reel, founded by the Palestine
Foundation Fund and the Jewish
National Fund cover an area not
adapted to intensive cultivation.
Only recently have water borings
there been successful. Neverthe-
less the population of the exist-
settlements grew by

67 per cent.
The 107 settlements founded in
the last 10 years now have a
population of 19,420, i. e. they
account for 29 per cent of the
total increase during the period
under review. The 96 settlements
established before 1927 show an
increase of 48,037 people or 71
per cent of the total growth.
One hundred ten settlements
of the total of 203 are on Jewish

STANDARDS OF LIVING

Your family may, in the course of time,
experience two standards of living: (1)
The standard they are operating on now;
(2) The standard they would have to
operate on if you should die. Sufficient
Life Insurance, arranged with The Great-

ard of living reasonably close to the first.
Stabilize the future of your loved ones.
It only requires a small outlay from your
