BY LEBALL COMET "Author of “Jasrish Life in Modern
Times" Although little nows has resched as during the last few months from the Palestinian Front, it is certainly not too soon to discurs the future of the Holy Land, for the Jews, who have a historio and generally acknowledged right to this country, have displayed almost impor- human patience in their longing for national restoration Ever since their dispersion, nearly two thousand years ago from their ancestral soil they have not ceased to pray to be gathered once more within its borders from all corners of the earth. Early in the second century there was an armed attempt under a 80 hercie leader, Bar Kochbe, to regain possession of Palestine, but it was soon suppressed. Thenesforth the love of Zion found expression merely in religious formin prayers and pilgrim ages whilst ever and again, in the gloom of the Middle Ages, it was fanned into fame by a false Messiah who haralded the return to Zion, and then abardoned bis deluded followers.

THE FARLE BEOGRAMME..
Twenty years have passed since that first Zionist Congress was held, und although another dozen Congresses have taken place since the fourth, in 1900 was held in London-the organisation is represented by thousands of societies in all countries of the globe, the Basle Programme has not yet been realised. The leaders of the Zionist movement have had to encounter considerable difficulties They required abundant fnancial resources and considerable | political influence for the achievement of their task, but unfortunately both of these factors are concentrated in that acction of Jawry which is anxious to be- come merged in its environment, and bas no desire to see Jewish national life perpetuated.
