A reception in honor of Professor Elwood Meade of the United States Reclamation Bureau and Dr. Jacob Lipman, experts of the Jewish Agency Palestine Survey Commission, was tendered at a luncheon here yesterday by the Zionist Executive, Dr. M. D. Eder, member of the Executive, presided at the luncheon.
Professor Meade and Dr. Lipman urged Zionists not to be discouraged because of the present difficulties in Palestine. Agriculture is now at a disadvantage all over the world, they stated. Their mission in Palestine is a difficult and complicated one, but they will report fully on their findings and convictions following the conclusion of the survey, the experts declared.
