JEWISH STATE IN:
PALESTINE
ora
(By Associated Press)
THE HAGUE, Netherlands, Nov. 30 I
(By Mail)—One of the first minis
ters of a neutral country public oiny
express himself in favor of a Jewish
State in Palestine is Marie Willem
Frederick Treub. Holland’s minister
of finance, who has frequently been
ealled the “strong man” of the Dutch
cabinet.
“The Jewish question is an inter
national problem the solution of
which is of world interest,” declared
Minister Treub in the course of an
interview. “If an international solu
tion of the Jewish question proves
possible, and the formation of a Jew
ish state is one of the consequences
of the universal war, I personally
should be very pleased. One of the
first requirements would naturally
be that the sacred places of Christi
anity should come under the control
of Christian authorities or be inter
nationalized. But I do not think dif
ficulties will rise on that head. Every
friend of humanity must desire the
rebuilding of the Jewish nation in a
Zionist sense. Every endeavor will
therefore have to be made in the di
rection of transplanting the Jewish
people to its old place of residence,
in order to solve a question that is so
painful for the Jews and for the
world.
' ■ —. »■ _
“It cannot yet be said with cer
tainty what questions will be discus
sed at the coming peace conference,”
continued Mr. Treub, in reply to an
inquiry. "Whether the Jewish ques
tion will come up for discussion de
pends on the manner in which the
peace conference is held. The ques
tion is whether peace negotiations
will be restricted to the most import
ant points, or whether an endeavor
will be made to solve all internation
al questions. In the latter case, it
may be hoped that the Jewish ques
tion will not be forgotten.
"Here in Holland there is no Jew
ish question. We know no definite
anti-semitic movement, such as ex
ists in Germany and even in Austria.
Every able Jew makes his way equal
ly as well as an able Christian in Hbl
land. Talent is here the only requis
ite demanded for success, and with
us a gifted Jew may become a cab
inet minister. We are proud of our
tradition;! c' freedom. Holland has
never known hatred of Jews or Jew
ish persecutions. If we had not been
so philoserhtic we should have had
no Spinoza.” (The great Dutch-Jew
ish philospher)'.
“From a moraj standpoint too. Hol
land has an interest in a wise solu
tion of the Jewish question, as laid
down in the Zionist program. It is
comprehensible that for that reason
wide circles in Turkey, and in coun
tries allied therewith, are also in fav
or of the realization of Zionism. It
lies in the line of historic develop
ment that every people be offered
the opportunity to freely develop its
powers,” concluded Minister Treub.
