The future of Jerusalem, as visualized by the Palestine Government, is depicted in an architectural exhibition opened here today. The exhibits include a large wall map prepared by the Public Works Department of the Palestine Government showing the view of Jerusalem in the near future.
Among the future buildings shown on the map is one marked as seat of the Palestine Legislative Council, which the government once planned to establish to be composed of British officials and of Jews and Arabs, but which has not been established due to the opposition of both the Jews and the Arabs to the proposed scheme.
