WASHINGTON
NGTON — Dividing a
WASHI
into two new
states is simple in political
terms. From one government
you get two governments. But
in economic terms, dividing a
country with many valuable as-
sets is like tryinf, to divide a
house—one side might have the
kitchen thrown in but the other
side would surely have all the
bedrooms.
In the division of the Holy
Land, a credit and debit check
shows that Jewish Palestine will
have many factors in its favor—
and some bad features that can-
not be overlooked. .
The land and the people are
divided almost evenly. The
Arabs, however, own most of
the land in both territories, and
those in the Jewish State can
be expected to demand good
prices for the land lying within
its bor&rs.
The Jewish State comes out
way ahead in other things. For
example, most of the modern
industry in Palestine lies with-
in the Jewish State and was
developed by Jewish capital.
The best farmland lies within
its borders. Although about half
of the land on which citrus is
grown is Arab owned most of
the citrus orchards lie within
Jewish territory and will ulti-
mately be Jewish owned. Citrus
is, of course, Palestine's most
valuable export crop.

Solomon to Spur
• •
Yeshivah Activity

Samuel B. Solomon, president
of United Steel Sales Corp., was
named co-chairman of the sixth
annual observance of Torah
Month by Yeshivath Beth Yehu-
dah, Morris W. Zack, general
chairman, announced. The cele-
bration will be climaxed with a
dinner March 14.
Solomon is a son of the late
Jacob M. Solomon, who was a
sponsor of the Yeshivah when it
was founded in 1917.
Located at Dexter and Cort-
land in a building intended for
250 pupils, the Yeshivath expects
an enrollment of 600 for the sec-
ond semester.
They will be housed in the
main building and in an annex
directly across the street. At
present there are 35 classes and
a faculty of 30 teachers.

YPC of Northwest
to Present Hypnotist

An "Evening of Hypnotism,"
featuring Oscar Nudelman, Chi-
cago hypnotist and psychologist,
will be presented by the Young
People's Club of the Northwest
Hebrew Congregation Feb. 8 at
the Synagogue.

RED CROSS CLASSES

of the new year are being form-
ed at Detroit Red Cross. House-

ports this will be virtually a
subsidy for the Arab state.
Jewish leaders are asking that
a ceiling of 16 million a year be
set on the amount the Arabs
would get from the joint customs
revenue but even that figure
will amount to 45 per cent of
the estimated total annual rev-
enues of the Jewish State. In-
creasing the total duty which
the Jewish State will have to
pay will be the large amount
of capital goods that it will be
necessary to import to establish
the refugees arriving from
Europe.
A disheartening fact is the
prediction that the Jewish State
will likely have a permanent
unfavorable balance of trade.
Faced with the necessity of im-
porting many of the raw ma-
terials for development pur-
poses, there is a good chance
that her exports will never catch
up with her imports.
On the other hand the Arab
state, with its almost feudal
economy, is largely self-support-
ing. Although its exports are
at a minimum, so are its im-
ports.

BENEFIT FOR ARABS
IN TERMS OF cash the Arab
state is likely to come out ahead
because of the possible 16 mil-
lion they will receive from cus-
toms revenue each year and be-
cause of land sales to the Jews.
And Jewish planners propose to

2 SPLENDID PORTS
OTHER ASSETS for the new
Jewish State will be the line
ports of Haifa—terminus of the
oil pipeline—and Tel Aviv.
Haifa, Palestine's only modern
port, handled 62 per cent of the
country's tonnage before the
war.
The Arab State will have only
Jaffa, a lighterage port with no
dockage for large ships, and the
small, undeveloped ports of
Acre and Gaza.
Water power and fuel oil
power plants lie mostly within
Jewish territory as do most of
the railroad roadbeds.
But under the terms of the
economic unity proposed by the
UNSCOP, economic gains in the
Jewish State must be measured
against the backwardness of the
Arab state.
The UNSCOP report requires
that the two states join in a
customs union, a joint currency
providing for a single foreign
exchange, and in operating com-
munication and transportation
facilities and developing irriga-
tion and reclamation projects,
which means that the more
wealthy Jewish State may bear
the burden of development
costs.

settle the land debts in gold or
dollars. The Jewish State, on the
other hand, faces a perpetual
deficit.
The cost of bringing in the
proposed 150,000 immigrants is
figured at 400 million and of
this only 10 per cent can be
raised in Palestine. There are
other possible sources of funds
to support the immigration in-
cluding loans from other govern-
ments or direct contributions
from Jewish communities in
America.
It all boils down to the fact
that American contributions are
going to be needed more than
ever in the next few years and
for many more years to come.
