A vanguard of tourists who come yearly to Palestine to spend the Passover holiday, arrived here on the steamer Mauretania. A banquet in their honor was given by the Kehillah last night. Speakers welcomed the visitors in behalf of the Zionist Executive, the Kehillah, the Haifa Technicum and the Chamber of Commerce.
Moses Gelber, vice-president of the Zionist Organization of Canada, was the spokesman for the tourists. In reply to the greetings he said that American Jewry will do everything to help Palestine.
