Henry Morgenthau Urges National Loan For Palestine A National Loan Would Determine Country's Future; He Says; Praises Keren Hayesod But Denies • Political Victory

Shanghai (J. T. A.)—The idea of a national loan for Palestine was again discussed by Henry Morgenthau, former United States Ambassador to Turkey, who arrived here on bis tour around the world. In an interview' with Mr. Morgenthau the representative of "'Tsf ael's. Messenger," Zionist' paper, of China, submitted to him a Jerusalem dispatch of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency of last January in which Mr.~ Morgenthau described Ms impressions of Palestine when he revisited,it,and hisenthusiasm for the proposed national loan. Mr. Morgenthau admitted the correctness of the dispatch but denied the statement which was "put in his mouth", he said, by the Agency, that the "Zionists Tiave' achieved a great political "victory.'.'" That was untrue, he stated. .'There "jvas^no soch victory in" sight?'"nV declared, although? he Tvasfully prepared to admit -that the "advance of Palestine since his last visit in 1914 was stupendous." This he attributed to the" manner in which the Keren Hayesod "was proceeding with the upbuilding of the country, although he felt that much more could be. done if "a -, national loan for Palestine" were floated. He was convinced that under half a dozen leading Jewish business men, it would be possible to determine* Palestine's future, and all Jews would ultimately combine in a great effort to upbuild tiie country. Mr. Morgenthau. made it clear that he was not going to lend his services in order' to create in Palestine. "The' Jewish National Hoineland, but "A" homeland, without any emphasis being laid on the word ''National." According to him, the Balfour DeclaraFai Resh Fraternity Will tion "was a mistake.
