NEW JERUSALEM.
MR. HERBERT SAMUEL’S FAITH IN HIS RACE.
“We are much nearer our goal, and I am sure we shall yet see the establishment of . our desired home in Palestine,” said Lord Rothschild at a meeting at the London Opera House. “The establishment of that home,” proceeded Lord Rothschild, “is the will of by far the greatest and overwhelming number of our Jewish brethern, and, although it may still be unconscious, it is also the desire of the. rest of the world.” “We have waited two thousand years,” said Mr. Herbert Samuel, M.P. “We can, perhaps, afford to wait two years more. The British Government stands by the plan it propounded two years ago. I see an opportunity for establishing a communitj- which will be an example to the world. Perhaps it may be that this is the time that has been foretold: ‘There shall be a time of great trouble such as never was since there was a nation, and at that time thy people shall be delivered.’ ”
