The charge that some of the officials in the present administration of Palestine are hostile to the Jewish aspirations in the country was made by Lieut-Commander Kenworthy, M.P., addressing a Zionist meeting in Hull, England.

The Wall episode has thrown extraordinary searchlights on the Palestine administration, revealing that a section of the British administration there is hostile to the Zionist conception for the re-establishment there of the Jewish National Home. A searching inquiry should be made, he declared.

The Rev. Mever Freeman, of New York City, died suddenly Sunday at the age of 87.

Mr. Freeman came to this country from Russia shortly after the Civil War. He spent the first few years in Natchez. Miss., and Memphis, Tenn., and then became rabbi in Jersey City, where he conducted a school for several years. He had been a resident of New York for the last thirty-five years.
