Replying to criticism against him because he had sent copies of his pamphlet, “Like All the Nations?” to members of Parliament, Dr. Judah L. Magnes, chancellor of the Hebrew University, in a statement to the “Ha’Aretz” declared that the pamphlet had favorably influenced Jews and non-Jews. He said that he sent 50 or 60 copies to members of Parliament known to him and that 1,500 copies in Hebrew, 2,000 in English, and the German translation were published for “the good of Palestine.”
