WAVELL (CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE) ing to overflowing, Dr. Chaim Weizmann, president of the Jew- ish Agency for Palestine, charged the British government with shackling the creative powers of the Jewiskpeople, and causing an economic crisis which is not the fault of the economic structure of the Yishub but the result of an "artificially created" political situation. Declaring that the Royal Commission was "incorrect" in its conclusion that the British Mandate is unworkable, Dr. Weiz- man said that the Palestine gov- ernment had failed in giving it a "fair chance." While any form of partition involves • "real sac. rifice" on the part of all Jews. they are being asked to make this sacrifice to make possible the real- ization of the essential ideal and to insure the scope of continuous Jewish immigration for establish- ing a comprehensive Yishub of several millions," Dr. Weizmann asserted. Palestine was precious to all Jews and not merely to the "Neinsager" (opponents to parti- tion), Dr. Weizmann said.

Lewis, president of the Indus- trial Morris Plan Bank of Detroit, stated than in his opinion the next recovery will be greatly aided by the revival of the building indus- try, which has not yet gotten well under way since the major depres- sion, With plenty of money available for building on the most favorable terms ever offered to the public, he expects that there will be • sub- stantial revival in the industry during this year. He thinks that the revival of Title I of the Na- tional Housing Act, to assist in the modernization of property, is a step in the right direction, and he looks for much activity along this line this spring. His bank mime more the 15,000 modernization loans within a peri- od of less than two years, while the former Act was in force, and he hopes that it will be able to do a large volume of this business again. Under Title I of the Act during the short period it was in force, over $500,000,000 was loaned by banks and finance companies, and the effects of the elimination of this service were immediately noticed as soon as the Act was un- fortunately permitted to expire on March 31, 1937. Detroit Mizrachi Efforts MONTREAL. — The Sun Life of Canada—the Dominion', larg- est life insurance company—is- sued over $250,000,000 of new paid-for life assurance during 1937, $30,000,000 more than in 1936. The total assurances in force held by more than a mil- lion policyholders now exceed $2,890,000,000, an increase dur- ing the year of $120,000,000. Marked increases in both new business and assurances in force were recorded in Canada. United States and Great Britain. The assets of the company were in- creased by more than $53,000,- 000 during 1937, bringing the present total to more than $831,- 000,000, the highest in the his- tory of the company. The 1937 statement released here at the 67th annual meeting by Arthur B. Wood, president and managing director, discloses the wide scope of the company's operations, which practically en- circle the globe. It also reflects economic conditions in the coun- tries where the Sun Life does business and offer striking evi- dence of the stability and serv- ice of life insurance. At the meeting of the execu- tive committee of Detroit Miz- rachi, Wednesday, Feb. 2, at Lacher's, plans for the activity of the Detroit organization were formulated in accordance with the decision of the midwestern regional conference held here last month.
