A thorough study of the problems of transporting the minerals from the Dead Sea is now being made by Engineer Tullock and Moses Novomejsky, who have arrived here.
Mr. Novomejsky, in an interview with the representative of the “Ha’-Aratz,” Tel Aviv Hebrew daily, stated that Mr. Tulloch is investigating the problems of transportation while he is studying the plans for extracting the salts of the dead sea.
Mr. Novomejsky is also conducting an investigation on behalf of the Palestine Mining Syndicate to ascertain whether there are mineral deposits in the Palestine mountains. The work is being carried on in cooperation with Professor Evans.
