Warburg Says Cultural
Progress Based On
Economic Stability
London—That cultural and social
progress in Palestine would be pos
sible only after a sound economic
foundation has been established was
the statement of Felix M. Warburg,
Chairman of the Administrative Com
mittee of the Jewish Agency, at the
opening session of the Committee’s
session here. After reviewing gen
eral conditions in Palestine, Mr. War
burg asserted that new duties should
be assigned to the Palestine Execu
tive and that its work should be con
fined to the economic sphere, political
work to be conducted only in London
and Geneva. He also suggested that
an agricultural corporation be estab
lished to promote agricultural work
in the Jewish National Home, with an
expert agronomist at its head. He
urged that work should be done at
once toward accelerating progress in
Palestine and expressed the hope that
shortly the Palestine Government
would assume more responsibility for
the education and health budget of
the country.
A report on the Palestine Emer
gency Fund by Mr. Warburg showed
that $2,600,000 had been received and
that most of it had already been al
lotted for reconstruction purposes.
Following Mr. Warburg, Dr. Chaim
Weizmann, President of the Jewish
Agency, criticized the attitude of the
Palestine Government and took issue
with it on the assertion before the
Commission of Inquiry that no lands
w r ere available for distribution to
Jews. He pointed out that large areas
of crown lands could be alloted to
Palestinian Jewish pioneers.
