And alongside of Palestine is Syria, where France has now the right to pro ceed with her civilizing agencies for the development of the country. Thus the mandate for Syria, granted to France and approved by the League, secures that tranquility and equal op portunity for growth in a closely de pendent neighboring land which will prove a great aid to the development of Palestine. Once the Arabs quiet down, as they are bound to do when they share the beneficial results of Jewish industrial enterprise, then we may see a great inrush of still more Jews and a vast development of all Palestine, in cluding the rich region east of the Jor dan.

There were present the Archbishop of Canter bury, Monsignor Cerretti, the Papal Nuncio to France, the Arab delegation to Great Britain, and Mrs. Weizmann, wife of the great Zionist leader. £ The negotiations with regard to the Syrian Mandate are proceeding rapidly between France and Italy, and the hope is expressed that a final decision on the question of the Holy Places will be reached at the next meeting of the Coun cil. What the Mandates Mean No one who has at heart the cause of justice to the Jews, or who awaits the fulfillment of prophecy regarding their return to their own land, 'can learn without emotion that the Way for this return is now legally opened and confirmed by the League of Nations. It seems that henceforth the Jews who so desire may return to Palestine under the protection of a great power and with the approval of all the great nations of the’ earth. The Jews are now free to
