WEIZMANN

months, will fly to the United
States from Lisbon by Clipper
early this week for a brief visit
to this country.
Dr. Weizmann, who had on a
number of previous occasions
planned to come to the United
States, was detained in London
by his war duties and by vital
developments with regard to the
role of the Jewish community of
Palestine in the defense of the
Middle Eastern front.
During his brief stay in this
country Dr. Weizmann will con-
fer with leading American scien-
tists regarding his chemical re-
search for the British war effort
and will discuss with American
Jewish leaders plans for enabling.
Palestine to give maximum aid
to the cause of Britain in the
Middle East. Dr. Weizmann's
visit is of special importance in
view of the recent developments
in Southeastern Europe and in
Syria which have placed Pales-
tine in a strategic position in the
prosecution of the war by the
British in the Eastern Mediter-
ranean. The world-renowned Jew-
ish leader, who served as the
director of the chemical labora-
tories at the British Admiralty
during. the First World War from
1916 to 1919, will remain in this
country for only a short period,
as he expects to return to Lon-
elan as quickly as possible to
carry on his war duties.
At the present time the Daniel
Siert' Chemical Research Institutc.
in Palestine, of which Dr. Weiz-
mann is the head, is engaged in
scientific work to aid the British
forces in the Middle East.
As president of the Jewish
Agency for Palestine and of the
World Zionist Organization, Dr.
Weizmann has guided the des-
tinies of the rebuilding of the
Jewish National Home in Pales-
tine. He is universally regarded
as one of the most distinguished
and creative Jewish personalities
of modern times.
