An agreement to carry out the work of installing an electric power and water supply system in Jerusalem was signed in London by a representative of the Palestine government and a London bankers’ group, despatches received here state.

It is understood that the agreement was concluded with the Sir John Jackson, Ltd. of London, who have taken over the rights of the Mavrommatis concession for a period of sixty years. Work will start shortly, it was stated.
