Where are they?
Can you tell right at this moment where to find your
bonds, stock certificates, insurance policies and other valu
able papers, often needed in a hurry? Perhaps they are
in your desk drawer—or they may be in your office safe
—or possibly lying carelessly around the house.
If your valuable papers are in any of these places there
is a risk of loss as well as uncertainty of quickly finding
them when needed. But if they are in one of our safety
deposit boxes you are aways certain of their location.
They are accessible to you instantly, and to you alone and
they are safe from fire, theft and carelessness.

JEWS IN PALESTINE
RATE 25,000 A YEAR
WASHINGTON, D. €., Dec. 12.—
In his report of Jews to Palestine at
the rate of about 25,000 persons a
year appears probable from the jpace
reached the last three months, when
an average increase of more than 2,
000 Jews per month occurred. The
official report for September shows
1,870 Jews entered the country, ex
clusively of possibly 1,000 tourists,
many of whom have come with the
intention of remaining if conditions
permit. Only eight Jewish settlers
emigrated from Palestine during the
month and twenty-one immigrants
returned to their countries.
A hindrance to the establishment
of the Jewish National Home has
been the fact that the Jews are out
numbered by the Arabs about 5 to 1.
The Zionists have mainained all
along, however, hat if economic and
political conditions would allow an
immigration of about 25,000 a year, i
the Jews would become numerically
equal to the Arabs inside of one gen
eration. U*p to this year the rate
has not been more than 10,000 annu
ally, industrial and agricultural con
ditions not warranting the Zionist or
ganization to encourage a more rapid
increase.
The last quarter of the year was
marked by all-around prosperity prac
tically no unemployment and a great
er flow of Zionist money through the
Palestine Foundation fund and other
fund and other funds, making possi
ble the extension by Jews of com
merce, industry and agriculture.
Tourist traffic is contributing a
good deal toward the prosperity of the
Holy Land . Avoided by tourists dur
ing the war and the years immediate
ly following it, Palestine this year
attracted travelers from all over the
world. In July and August the num
ber of tourists reached nearly 5,000
each, although the height of the sum
mer is not considered by tourists the
best time of the year to visit this
country, which is most inviting in the
spring.

GUN SHOT SCARS
EXPLODE STORY
TWIN BROTHER
CAMDEN, N. J., Dec. 12.—Two
gunshot scars on the right leg of Jno.
H. Morgan, held on trial for bigamy,
police said today, upset Morgan’s
contention that Mrs. Francis McDon
ald Morgan, one of the women involv
ed in the case is a widow of his twin
brother, killed in France.
Morgan is said to have married
Mrs. Julia Walsh of Woodcrest, N. J.,
under the name of Robert T. Crofton.
Morgan claims his real name is Rob
ert Morgan Crofton, and that of his
twin brother, Charles James Crofton.
He gave his home as Nogales, Ariz.
Examination of the gunshot scars
on Morgan’s leg was made at the sug
gestion of Mrs. Frances McDonald
Morgan.
“This twin story is pure fiction,”
she told detectives. “Look at the
man’s right leg. If there are two
gunshot marks on it then he is my
husband and the father of my two
children.”
County Detective Smith verified
her statement.
