WELFARE OF JEWS

POSITION IN PALESTINE. Confidence in the ultimate success of British rule in Palestine was expressed by tho Rev. S. A. Goldstciii in a sermon preached in Auckland Syn.ago.gue, in connection with the observance of the. Jewish New Year. The service was conducted by Mr. Goldsein and the Rev.' J. Adler, who recently arrived from England The New Year festival, which lasts for two days, was further observed next day and concluded at sunset. Referring to recent events in Palestine, Mr. Goldstein said the sympathy of the British Government with the Zionist movement was well known. Any differences which might arise between the Jews and. the Arabs would be successfully overcome through the goodwill of the British Government and the spirit of the Jewish people.The outspoken comments; against the Jews by Herr Hitler, Leader of the National Socialist Party in Germany, were referred to by Mr. Goldstein. He said it came as a shock to people that in the year 1930 such statements could come from a so-called enlightened country like Germany. It would be a terrible blow if Jews were deprived of the rights so long enjoyed and if they were discriminated against by legislation.
