William H. King, former Senator from Utah, in an address over radio station WQXR tonight, predicted eventual establishment of Palestine as a Jewish commonwealth with a population numbering several millions.

Asserting that an investigation which he conducted several years ago during a visit to Palestine had led him to the “conclusion that the resources of Palestine were adequate to meet the requirements of several millions of Jews,” he characterized the Zionist movement as a force for democracy, linking Jews and Non-Jews. The address was under the auspices of the Metropolitan Bureau of the Zionist Organization of America.
