New York, N. Y.—Both the Jews
and the Arabs of Palestine view with
distanct disfavor Dr. Weizmann's idea
of a binational state in that country,
according to Joseph M. Levy, Jeru
salem correspondent of the New York
Times. The more extremist Jews, Mr.
Levy’s dispatch says, want a Jewish
State, while the extremist Arabs want
a state in which Jews “should he con
sidered as ordinary citizens of a 90 per
cent. Arab country.” Some moderates,
however, particularly in administrative
circles, believe Dr. Weizmann’s views
could find sympathy if both the Pales
tine and the Zionist administrations
were changed.
Mr. Levy also reports that the econ
omic situation in Palestine is critical,
partly because of the riots of last year
and partly because of the failure of
last winter’s orange crop. He quotes
bank managers as saying that “never
before has Palestine had so many
bankruptcies among both Arabs and
Jews as within the last two months.

Michelson, who were not included in
his list because "their work has not yet
been translated into industrial effects.’
New York, N. Y.—In the mind of

dent of the Temple for many years.

the street. The building was erected by
