The opinion that international anti-Semitism is the only factor responsible for the opposition of the Arabs to Jews in Palestine was expressed by Mr. Von Schoenaich in a lecture he delivered here last night on his impressions on Palestine.
There are no opponents to the Jewish work in Palestine except international anti-Semitism, which incites the Arabs. The entire world will learn something in the field of political life, economics and religion from Palestine, he stated.
