A Jewish company today approached the Syrian government for a concession to colonize up to 40,000 Jews in the Valley of Alomex, Syria, which was offered recently for Jewish colonization.

The company assures the Syrian government that the Jews to be settled in the valley will adopt Syrian naturalization. The Jewish settlers will drain the territory at their own expense, the company guarantees.
