“PROSPERITY LAND”
GOOD TIMES IN PALESTINE JERUSALEM, Sept. 20. With no unemployment, Treasury enjoying -an annual surplus, land values doubling and redoubling, capital flowing in, industries, expanding, immigration increasing astoundingly, and malaria, stamped out, Palestine thrives as neither the British mandatory administration nor the Zionists themselves ever dared to hope. Two years ago Palestine’s orange crop —its main source of income—filled 2,000,000 cases at most. The forecast for the coming year is 0,v00,000. Tel Aviv, the new Jewish settlement near Jaffa, had 2000 inhabitants in 1919. Now it claims 60,000 with 100,000 close ahead.
