McCANNA'S SONS FUNERAL DIRECTOR 804. Flatbush Ave. Buckminster 1771 ARAB SPOKESMAN FLAYS ZIONISM AS POLITICAL MOVE Friendly to Jews, but Is Certain Palestine periment Will Fail. is the second of a sertes of four articles outlining the present statue of the Zionist movement in Palestine. The first article dealt with the situation as visualized by the Zionist Erecutive.

This article summarizes the Arab viewpoint. An article on British opinion and a summary will conclude the By H. V. KALTENBORN (Staff Correspondent of The Eagle.) Jerusalem, Palestine, Ang. 5.

effendi Husseini, Secretary of the Palestine Arab Executive, is by common consent the man best able to express viewpoint of the Arabs on the Zionist experiment in Palestine. Their viewpoint is important because out of a total Palestine population of 900,500 in August, 1927, there were 554.000 Moslems, or about seventy percent as against 148.000 Jews or about nineteen per- cent. Arab Executive Speaks. "The Arab Executive represents three-fourths of Palestine's population and we are determined that Britain and the League of Nations shall hear and respect our point of view with regard to our country's future." In vigorous excellent English the Arab spokesman laid his case before The Eagle correspondent. He is less of a fanatic Zionist spokesmen had indicated and while inclined to exaggeration has a much more moderate point of view than the Arab leaders interviewed by this correspondent three years ago.

He was asked whether this comparative moderation was not due to a more friendly feeling between Arabs and Jews. "We have never hated the Jews." he replied. "Jew Arab are racial cousins historically. find Our objection is to Zionists and Zionism. Calls Zionism Political Movement.

"Don't forget that Zionism is a political movement and not a Jewish movement. Jews themselves share our opposition to it. Some pro-Zionist Jews leave here as anti-Zionists, claiming that they were deceived as their prospects and disillusioned to learn that the only purpose of the Zionist Executive in bringing them here, was to Orthodox displace Jews Arabs. of Palestine share our dislike of the Zionists. They characterize the newcomers as ists and communists and have organized to oppose the entry of any more such people into Palestine.

"We Arabs welcome Jews to Palestine on the basis of having them enjoy equal rights. But they are not welcome on any basis which assumes that they will the dominant race that labecomi establish here a Zionist state. Younger Arabs Taught Anti-Zionism. "Do not assume because you find peaceful conditions that we have made peace with the Zionists. The younger generation of Arabs which is now getting education far superior to that of their fathers is being brought up anti-Zionist.

Remember that we make a clear distinction between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism. We lived in untroubled relations with our Jewish neighbors until the Balfour Declaration created a new situation. "But we are certain now that the Zionist experiment will not succeed. The Zionists to-day are in the position of a foolish boy who sought to climb a steep mountain by running to the top. They have just come to point where the hard work of the climb begins and they are already breathless and exhausted.

Their enthusiasm has abated and they are approaching a period of great trouble. Palestine Arabs Want Home Rule. "The Seventh Arab Congress which has just adjourned has again asked for a parliament. We see the Arabs of Syria, Transjordania and Irak obtaining a larger measure of home rule. We are also entitled to a more representative form of government.

We are tired of being subjected to an autocracy. Lord Plumer, the British Commissioner General to whom we carried our grievances just before he left for London, has definitely promised 115 to bring this matter to the attention of the British authorities. "The Moslems and Christians of Palestine are united in this demand. We are determined to present it to the League of Nations if we cannot obtain satisfaction from the British. We have definite assurances that the Mandate sympathizes our point of view.

Commission of the League The Commission also agrees with us that immigration to Palestine should not be permitted to exceed the country's capacity to absorb and employ new labor. Jews Have No Reason to Fear. "The Jews have no reason to fear home rule for Palestine. The League of Nations has guaranteed the Balfour Declaration. The Commissioner General could veto any act which trespassed on Jewish rights.

"But the truth is, that unless the Government of Palestine continues to favor the Jews, Arab competition will drive them out. The Arab's lower living standard and lower wages would give Arabs all the work. In common field labor the Jew has utterly failed to compete with the Arab. That is why Jewish colonists have so often failed in open feld agriculture. The economic difficulties in Balfouria and other Jewish colonies arise from the inability of Jewish labor to meet Arab labor on even terms.

Says Jews Oppose Arab Labor. "The Arab laborer can live on $150 3 year. The Jewish laborer requires twice as much. Jewish artisans are superior to Arab artisans but their common labor cannot compete with ours. Yet they have opposed the employment of Arabs on Jewish work even by violence.

In Jerusalem we have had instances where houses built by Orthodox Jews have been damaged or torn down because Arab labor was employed. Last year when the Arab buyers of the orange crop sought to employ expert Arab labor to pack the fruit the Jews rioted and obliged the Palestine Government to send police to protect the Arab labor. Finally the Government enforced on the Arabs the employment of fifty percent Jews at higher wages than they paid their Arab workmen." How Orange Land Is Divided. Jamal effendi Husseini was asked whether further intensive development of orange orchards might not solve the economic problem for the Zionists. "Don't be deceived by that suggestion," he replied.

"The possible area that can be devoted to orange growing only totals 300,000 dunams (four dunams equal one acre). of the 70,000 already planted 40,000 are owned by Arabs and 30,000 by Jews. Old East River Cable To Manhattan Removed The New York Telephone Company, co-operating with the United States Government, yesterday completed the removal of the old submarine cable system between Manhattan and Brooklyn, crossing the River from Pier 20 to the Bridge Pier. Approximately 3,000 telephone trunk circuits contained in the 16 cables removed have been rerouted through the Clark st. and other subway tunnels, removal of the submarine cables has eliminated many deep sea hazards.

Attacks Fad for Police Dogs, Calling Them Public Peril, But Fanciers Praise Breed Of the remaining 230.000 about 000 is Moslem religious property which cannot be alienated.

Of the remaining 160,000 dunams the Jews may be able to buy another 80,000. You cannot establish a productive homeland for the Jews of the world on 20,000 acres." "But what about industrial opment?" the Arab spokesman was asked. "There is little chance for industry in Palestine," he replied. "We have no raw materials and cannot compete with countries more favorably situated. Some of the Zionist colonies are even selling the Palestine wines at less than it costs to produce them.

Failure of Industrial Plan. "Tell Aviv was to become a great industrial center. "But the same Jews who bought land there from the 'Arabs for sell $2,500 it a dunam are now willing to back to the Arabs for $500 a dunam. before We never knew unemployment the Zionists came but to-day we would have 10.000 unemployed if the Government did not give them jobs. "You will be told a lot about the Ruthenberg scheme.

That is a political not an economic undertaking, Ruthenberg obtained the Jaffa-Tel Aviv light and power concession and is running that at a profit. But the Jordan development scheme can never it pay. and he hasn't got the capital.

never Zionists want it on account of its The political importance. Would Welcome American Capital. "That is also why they are after the concession for extracting the minerals from the Dead Sea. We oppose granting it to them because we feel that such an important undertaking should not be used for political purposes. We should like to see an independent American group get this concession.

But primarily itself we prefer the Government should run it." There is just one thing concerning which the Arab spokesman was thoroughly optimistic. pointed with pride to the rapid progress of education throughout Palestine. "Our education budget now totals $800,000 yet we are attacking the Government on the ground that this amount is too small. Where we had only 30 Palestine Arabs in the American University at Beyrout before the war the we now have 300. We are adopting curriculum of the American Univerin four of our high schools." Jamal effendi Husseini is willing to sity give the Zionists some credit for stimulating this educational activity.

have raised our standard of living." he said. "They have also "They shown us Western methods of agriculture. They themselves have failed in applying them. But we Arabs are adapting them to our soil and where the Jews fail we succeed." P. M.

Times Square Wreck: to Cost I.R.T.Only About $500,000, Say Experts After Analysis The T. may get off easier than even President Hedley's intlmations would indicate when it comes to settling the damages resultant from the Times Square wreck. While Hedley talked about $1,500,000 to $2,000,000 as the total, a more careful analysis by lawyers acquainted with torts and rapid transit railway damage actions estimate that the disaster isn't likely to cost the Interboro more than $500,000. A study of the death list does not reveal any of the victims as the recipients of large salaries.

According to lawyers, the sums recovered are always in proportion to the earning capacity of the victims. When the case gets in court sentiment plays little part. If the plaintiffs show that the dead person was earning $10,000 to $50,000 a year, was in the prime of life, with every prospect of continuing that yield for a long time, it goes hard with the defendant railway, But if the victim is a minor, or a person who earned only a moderate wage. or an elderly woman who earned nothing. the verdict is not imposing, if, swayed by sentiment, the jury hands in a big award, it is easy for the defendant's lawyer to get it cut down by the equity courts.

TIPSTER ACTIVITY ON MARKET FEARED Business Bureau Gives Data to Attorney General. The current revival of speculative activity in Wall Street is likely to be followed by a recrudescence of fake tipster and investment advisory services, according to H.

J. Kenner, general manager of the Better Business Bureau of New York City. "This bureau has filed facts with the Attorney General's office and the Postoffice Department against various tipster operators." says Mr. Kenner in the quarterly report of the work of the bureau just "The tipster swindlers--the big and prosperous ones -have thus far managed to circumvent the law. Their system has been intricate enough to present difficulties to law enforcement and their legal advisers have been shrewd.

The system used is an advisory service through the columns of the tipster publications which always includes advice to buy stocks the tipster himself wants to sell, an artificial price level maintained through irresponsible dealers in an over -thecounter market and other methods. "Federal penal laws against mail frauds, as well as the special securities statute and the criminal laws of New York State, can be invoked with good effect against a number of tipster sheet operators." thought the Belgian poli ecdog should not be confined in a city apartment. "He's a fine dog, however, if you give him lots of room on a big he said. Reginald Vockins of Greenwich, dog, man of the Hilltop Farm Kennels Frank Spiekerman, was also convinced that the Belgian police dog should not be too small space. In a city apartment.

he pointed out, a small dog with a shrill bark is just as valuable as a watchdog and goes through less suffering because of confinement. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Can't The Eagle do something to stop the craze for Belgian police dogs which has swept over Brooklyn? In all of the sections where one-family and two-family houses, detached or semi-detached, the number of these always dangerous dogs is increasing enormously. Because of the publicity the dogs have received as aids to the police in this country and abroad they have been taken up as watchdogs in small houses where a spaniel that barked and ran away to bark again another day would be far more valuable. The Belgian dog is of no more value as a protector of the household than any other large dog unless it is trained for police work, and not one of them in fifty, bought as puppies by private families, receive the slightest training. They are so large and muscular and full of energy that it is a crime to keep them in small houses, and limit their activities to taking them out for a stroll in the evening, with or without a muzzle.

Belgian dogs shut in for all except one or two hours daily are the unhappiest of creatures. The most serious objection to the Belgian dogs is the uncertainty of their actions. Even without training they have an hereditary instinct to interpret certain innocent movements by human beings around them, especially strangers, as an attack, and they act at once. So many adults and children have been bitten by Belgian dogs in England that an active campaign against the breed has been carried on in some of the newspapers, with the result that indiscriminate purchases of the breed have fallen off. It is high time a Brooklyn paper took the same attitude in the interests of the dogs themselves as well as of the public.

M. D. MacDONALD. (Special to The Eagle.) St. James, L.

Sept. 1-Dog fanciers and exhibitors at the annual dog show of the North Shore Kennel Club here agreed in general with The Eagle's correspondent that the Belgian police dog is too large an animal for a city home. Most of them at the same time weer opposed to a campaign, such as that suggested by the writer of the letter, against the dog. Frank Dole, recognized writer and authority on dogs, was entirely opposed to the writer of the letter. "It's all tommyrot." he said.

"Dogs are just like people. Some people are not a credit to their race and some individual dogs are not a credit to their breed. But this does not apply to the whole breed. There are a great many grand dogs of this breed, and some of the greatest dogs I ever knew are in it. As a whole I think there is no need of any action." Theodore Offerman of New York City, one of the judges at the show, said: "These dogs are no more dangerous than others.

Naturally we hear more of them now because they are popular. I do consider, however, that it is too large a dog for a small city apartment." John MrKowan, breeder at Far Hills, N. and an exhibitor here, declared: "While the dog might be considcred dangerous if left at large, it's a mighty dog to have on a large place. I should not call a Belgian police dog suitable, however, for a Brooklyn home. In fact, it's cruel to keep any living thing confined, as a dog would have to be in city homes."

The home-run king has expressed regret that the meeting did not take place.

Declaring that "politics had nothing to do with it." Ruth said that when a photographer requested that he and Mr. Hoover pose together, the game was about to start and that with the nominee the center of attention he felt that it would look "odd" if he should go to the Hoover box at that time. "I labored under a misunderstanding." he said. "and I deeply regret that I did not avail myself of the opportunity of meeting him." Hoover said he certainly could sympathize with Ruth for not wishing to delay the game for more photographs. He added that he looked forward with pleasure to meeting him.

and abandoned as impossible. In that case the old Public Service Commission protested the B. R. action in charging the damage settlements to "operation" under the contracts. The matter was sent to arbitrators when the railroad refused to change its attitude.

The case dragged on for several years and finally the Commission, in cleaning up the calendars, assigned this with several other similar disputes to a committee of lawyers to ascertain the chances winning. The attorneys reported back that there was no likelihood of forcing the railroad to charge the losses to its own profits because of the contract terms and the whole case was dropped. 28,268 NEW SEATS ADDED TO CITY'S SCHOOL SYSTEM Extensive Building Program Gives Brooklyn and Queens Ten New Buildings. erected lately. New Schools in Queens.

With an anticipated increase of 623 students over last year, the Department of Education is preparing for the opening rush by adding seating accommodations for 28,268 pupils throughout the public schools. An extensive building program will give Brooklyn and Queens 10 new schools or shortly after next Monday, Sept 10, and in general is is expected that by the fall of 1929 New York schools will have had their seating capacity increased by 53,010. The city is expecting an increased attendance of 237,069 pupils over that of last June, according to Acting Superintendent Harold G. Campbell, and a total enrollment of 1,028,000. An increase of 530 is planned for the teaching force this fall, of which number 423 will be assigned to the elementary and junior high schools and 107 to the high schools.

This will bring the total number of teachers to 32,355, causing the same average number of students per teacher to be maintained in the elementary and high schools, but affecting a reduction of the pupil load per teacher in the junior high schools from 36 to 34.

Eigh: soung men 111 earse canoes were rescued by members of the private police of Sea Gate, Coney Island, last night, after a battle of several hours with rough water from Midland Beach, Staten Island, across the Bay and the Narrows to the Potatos Patch, off Sea Gate. The canoeists, with several others, started in the afternoon to race from the Sheepshead Bay Canoe Club to Midland Beach, and return. There were five canoes all told.

After spending some time on the shore at Midland, they started back for head Bay, A strong east wind was blowing the lower Bay into whitecaps. as it beat against the ebbing tide. It was hard paddling, but the cances slowly forced ahead until they reached the spot known as Potatoe Patch. Then the water became so rough and the currents so strong that only two of tho canoes were able to make headway. The paddlers in the others set up a call for help.

Lieut. Bernard O'Connor of the Sea Gate police, with four other members of his forces, swam the quarter mile to the canoes. With the aid of the policemen, the canoeists managed to reach the Atlantic Yacht Club, where Commodore Harry O'Shea ordered hot coffee and blankets for them until their clothing arrived from Sheepshead Bay. The eight who were assisted were Daniel and Fred Giles, 427 Sterling Allen Dale, 625 Avenue WilWindart, 1373 132d South Orange, N. Robert Simpson, 246 Manhattan; Fred Schwentmeyer, 1624 E.
