The Egyptian steamship Zamzam arrived here today after a two-month roundabout voyage from Egypt, bringing 122 Jews from Palestine, 15 of them American citizens. One of the passengers was Eri Jabotinsky, son of the late Vladimir Jabotinsky, who was not permitted immediately to land and was taken to Ellis Island. The ship still bore the scars of bomb splinters, the result of an Italian air raid while the vessel was in Alexandria harbor. The 13,000-mile voyage from Egypt was made by way of the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean, Cape Town, the South Atlantic, Brazil and Trinidad.
