and cultural program with the
goal of increasing the obsorptive
capacity of Palestine for the
many thousands of Jews who
seek a free home.
The Histadrut members, to-
gether with their dependents,
make up almost 50 per cent of the
Jewish population in Palestine.

bor Zionist movement of Detroit,
branches of the Poale Zion party,
'National Workers Alliance, Pio-
neer Womens Clubs, League for

ist Youth movement all have
participated to make past cam-
paigns a success.

`Jewish Home' Phrase
Abided By Balfour
Pledge, Bevin Claims
LONDON (JPS-Palcor) — The
British Labor Government "has
no intention of avoiding" its ob-
ligations under the Balfour Dec-
laration and the Mandate, For-
eign Secretary Bevin stated in a
letter to S. S. Silverman, Labor-
ite M.P., who wrote him that the-
use of the word "Jewish home,"
instead of "Jewish national
home," in Bevin's Palestine state-
ment "caused anxiety among
Jews."
Bevin replied: "I assure the
phrase 'Jewish home' I used in
the House, Nov. 13, was intended
to be understood as an abbrevia-
tion of the phrase 'national home
for the Jewish people' which ap-
pears in the Balfour Declaration
and in the preamble to the Man-
date on Palestine. The govern-
ment has no intention of avoiding
its obligations under these instru-
ments which, of course, include
facilitating the establishment in
An emergency conference of Palestine of a national home for
delegates of local organizations the Jewish people."
