; BACK TO PALESTINE. v / i Jews Everywhere Strong for Return to Land of Promise. Over 90 per cent, of the entire Jewish population of China, Japan. Siberia and Russian Manchuria are anxiously awaiting an opportunity to migrate to Palestine, according to :t Samuel Mason, Jewish Relief Commissioner to Siberia, whose report in this remarkable situation was made public by the Zionist Organization of America yesterday. > "The same tense yearning is found among the Jewish communities of Siberia proper and the Ural," says Mr. Mason. k ) "In Japan there is no Zionist or- ! ganization of any description, yet Jn AN P T ATTTfl + V* nrn Q ^ U1C1C ill C UUUU1CU9 U1 oov?o tui/1 C) vu fc per cent, of the entire Jewish popuw latiozi impatiently awaiting the time when they may have their passports vteed, so that they can embark in Mediterranean steamships for Pales? tine. This mass desires to emigrate to Palestine which I found everywhere in the Far East is not due to propaganda, but is an expression ot ' deeply ingrained Jewish sentiment." The thousands of Jews in the Far East waiting for the opening of Palestine through the establishment of the League of Nations or the signing of the teraty with Turkey are roughly grouped into five classes "by Mr. Mason?investors, traders, farmers, * laborers and idealists. ? "The traders contain a large proportion of men with extensive export and import business experience, which they propose to utilize on a large scale in Palestine. Several corporations with capitalizations of millions of rubles for the purpose of exporting and importing materials to Asia Minor via Palestine have already i been formed at Harbin and Irkutsk. A shipping company has been established at Harbin. v "The farmers want to convert their , Russian currency into agricultural l"; implements as soon as they know they can proceed and that there' is available land for them. The laborers are willing to do any kind of work and content themselves with the scanroennrppc r?f the war ridden coun try as long as they can feel confident of their future safety. The idealists desire to dedicate their services to the urgent needs of the country for one \ oiytwo years in any capacity for which they may seem fitted. The investors . are usually elderly persons whose faith in the future of Palestine is firm and who are willing to stake their capital on any development I proposition approved by the Zionist I government. . ! . v "The greatest difficuly in the emi- | A gration of these people after the po- = litical status of Palestine is determv injjd and its rehabitation has proceeded to the point where it can receive immigrants is the Russian currency," continued Mr. Mason. "Their capital is in rubles, which have fallen in value almost to nothing. The Siberian g<prernment prohibits the ex* porting of rubles now, arid the Unit-j* ed States and Great Britain prohibit their import." Mr. Mason reports that the Zionist aspirations have received a ready indorsement from the governments of Japan, China and Siberia, and that in. the latter country the Zionists were granted the privilege of assisting - Jewish prisoners of war in Siberian prison camps, a privilege usually only accorded representatves of neutral countries. Captain Daid I. Sandleson, a staff officer with the British forces in Siberia, who passed through New York city homeward bound recently, told officers of the Zionist organization that he was present at a conference in - Harbin where in response to a question from the rabbi the answer was: "Next year in Jerusalem." Capt. Sandleson attended other Zionist conferences at Vladivostock, Irkutsk, Omsk, and Tomsk and estimated the number of Siberian Jews who are eager to migrate to Palestine at about 500,000. > A Sentimental Value. "There's talk of abolishing the nickel." r "That shows that as a people we have no sentiment." "How so?" "Why, if w? had, we wrould keep ? - - - ?* j it if only as a reminder or tne goou old days when we could buy something with it."?Judge. mm < ? ?
