THE PALESTINE MANDATE.
“The realisation of the great aims embodied in the mandate for Palestine depends to a very large degree on the public opinion of Great Britain, on its Press, and its statesmen. The Jewish people is entitled to expect that its work of peace shall receive the active and benevolent support of the Mandatory Power. It is of fundamental importance that British public opinion and the Governments of Great Britain and of Palestine shall feel themselves responsible 'for this great trust, not because Great Britain once undertone this responsibility in legal form, but because they are deeply convinced of the significance and importance of the task. 1 cannot believe that the greatest colonial Power in the world will fall when it is faced with the task of placing its unique colonising experience at the service of the reconstruction of the ancient home of the people of the Bible. The task may not be an easy one for the Mandatory Power, but for the success it will attain it is assured o'f the undying gratitude not only of the Jews but of all that is noblest in mankind.” —Professor Einstein.
