The new abattoir that is to be built in Tel Aviv will cost $50,000. It is estimated that the municipality of Jaffa will lose between ten and fifteen thousand pounds annually owing to the fact that the Jews will discontinue slaughtering in Jaffa.

After lengthy negotiations, the government finally granted a permit for the construction of a permanent abattoir in Tel Aviv.
