Dream Of New Palestine Is At Last Coming True

The Zionist program gains momentum as Britain’s promised mandate nears, enabling mass Jewish migration and large scale reconstruction in Palestine. Plans include hydroelectric development, canal and harbor works, rail networks, industrial factories, a Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and a growing merchant marine starting with the ship Hocholaiz. Prominent figures like Prof. Geddes and Dr. Birnstein are linked to city planning and scientific development as Zionist engineers map out water, drainage, irrigation and tourism projects across the Holy Land.

England Shy of House Builders Amid Labour Shortage

London reports a grave shortage of construction workers threatening government housing plans. Sir Kingsley Wood cites a deficit of bricklayers and plasterers, with 200,000 workers needed to meet targets and 50,000 to 66,000 bricklayers required to build 200,000 houses. He warns unemployment fears are unfounded and emphasizes the vast wartime losses.
