PALESTINE TO
HAVETISOWN
LEGISLATURE
JERUSALEM, March 1 (Corre
spondence of the Associated Press).—
A call to a constituent assembly of
Palestine Jewry approved by the Brit
ish government in April, 1918, lias
been sent out by the Zionist commis
sion in Palestine, it was announced
here today.
All Jews of both sexes who have
reached their twentieth year are en
titled to vote and all who have
reached their twenty-fourth year are
eligible for election. One of the other
qualifications necessary for candidates
is that they will be able to read, write
and speak Hebrew.
The provisional constituent assemb
ly elected Dr. Chaim Weizmann and
Mr. Nahum Sokolow, the Zionist lead
ers, to represent them at the peace
conference.
It instructed its delegates to urge:
“That the powers should nominate
Great Britain as their representative
or trustee and should confer on it the
government of Palestine with a view
to aiding the Jewish people in build
ing its commonwealth.
“That an executive council should
be nominated by Great Britain in
agreement with the World Zionist or
ganization representing the entire
Jewish people.”
There has been great activity
amongst the Jews of Palestine since
General Allenby freed it from the
Turk. Efforts are being concentrated
on procuring agricultural machinery,
the purchase of live stock, and devel
opment of credit facilities, while the
American Zionist medical unit estab
lishing hospitals and medical aid sta
tions in the colonies. Everyone seems
inspired with the hope that a splen
did era of prosperity, a big agricul
tural, industrial and commercial enter
prises 'are about to open out. A so
ciety of Jewish engineers has been
recently started which is working in
conjunction with societies of Zionist
engineers in Russia and the United
States..

ANNUAL AUTO
RACES DRAW
BIG CROWDS
SANTA MONICA, Cal., March 31
More than 100,000 persons were here
from all sections of the country to
witness the annual Santa Monica auto
mobile road race scheduled to be
driven this afternoon over a course
of 250 miles.
In the list of entrants were speed
drivers of national and international
note, including veterans like Eddie
Pullen, Ralph De Palma, Cliff Durant,
Earl Cooper, Joe Thomas,Eddie Heran,
Louis LeCocq, Roscoe Sarles and
others.
The course is a triangular one of
7.34 miles, it being necessary to make
the circuit thirty-four times in order
to complete the full distance of 250.
miles. This course is considered
among the most difficult in the coun
try and has resulted in a number of
fatalities in past races.
Owing to considerable opposition
due to the danger, improvements have
been made, such as eliminating sharp
turns by removing portions of side
walks, thus lessening the degree of
curvature.
Nine thousand dollars will be dis
tributed in prizes. Of this $4,000 will
go to the winner, while $2,500, $1,500
and $1,000 will go .to the men who
take second, third and fourth places
respectively.
The entire course has been macad
amized since the last race. In the
past the drivers have gone over cer
tain sections of the coursfc, which was
dirt. The Santa Monica police were
reinforced by police from Los Angeles,
besides a squad of special officers, for
the purpose of maintaining a clear
track.
Arrangements for the comfort of
the spectators as well as for their
safety were provided by A. M. Young
of the Los Angeles Motor Car Dealers’
association, which took charge of the
race. Space was secured for the park
ing of thousands of automobiles in
which visitors from remote parts of
the State traveled to see the race. Re
freshment stands were available at
different points along the course.
The first Santa Monica road race
was held in 1910 and was won by
Teddy Tetzlaff from eleven entrants.
He maintained an average speed of
71.31 miles an hour. At that time the
length of the race was 202 miles.
