Turbulent noises and threats are to be expected, but the relative strength of "the opposition is indicated by the vote taken • at Berlin. When the Council met in Berlin in July the vote on the Jewish Agency was 41 to 4. The vote in December was 39 to 5, the additional vote being Dr. Stephen S. Wise's. "Dr. Wise came late to the Berlin meeting and delivered an impassioned address that lasted over an hour, but it had no effect upon the voting nor upon the views of the" Council members present. There is little left for the opposition to do in the, way of obstruction or public debate. They have lost the fight. They have been overwhelmingly defeated. The •work of actually organizing the Jewish Agency now takes the place of contentious argument. "Steps will be taken at once, by the Zionist Executive to assemble the so-called non-Zionist representation for England, Poland, Palestine, Germany, France, Holland and Belgium. Much progress has already been made. Dr. Weizmann will devote himself during January and February to this task. In the meant time the proposed constitution for the Jewish Agency is being prepared.

was submitted to the General Council at Berlin, It will now be referred to a special commission which will seek the views of Zionists and nonZionists and present their conclusions to the next Zionist congress. Final action on the constitution is to be left to the Council of the Jewish Agency, in which the Zionist Organization will be represented by 50 per cent of its membership. "In short, the Berlin conference of the Zionist General Council effectively cleared the way for setting up the administration of the Jewish Agency this Fall. In my judgment, the policy pf extending the Jewish Agency, which has been in discussion for over five years, is now fixed and cannot seriously be deflected by any combination of opprsitional Zionists. Most Zionists recognize that the Zionist movement must inevitably go in that direction. It is the first step in the effective organization of a World Jewish Union for the building of the Jewish National Home in Palestine in accordance with the terms of the Mandate and in consonance with Zionist ideals. The attempt to hold the building of a Jewish Palestine within the confine? of limitations of the Zionist Organization, making interest in the redemption of ~ion conditioned upon acceptance of Zionist formulas, runs counter to the will of the Jewish people and is not in accord with the fundamental Zionist principles. Those of us who are
not formalists feel that the essentials of Zionism will be safeguarded b.' the creative life we shall establish, in Palestine and by the inherent strength of the Zionist Organization. The future is to be left to the free play - of the competitive forces not only within the Zionist Organization, but also within the framework of the House of Israel— all co-operating in the making of a national-future for the Jewish people in Palestine," Mr. Lipsky concluded. , . . ' . . . ', With the exception of Poland and Palestine, where some difficulties are to be expected, the prospect for enlisting non-Zionist co-operation in the extended Jewish Agency are good, Jacob Fishman stated. The project of the constitution for the Jewish Agency, prepared by the Zionist General Council, will not encounter any difficulties at the forthcoming Zionist congress. If there
will be any differences of opinion, they most likely will, be smoothed out hy the Committee of Seven which was appointed for this purpose. The proceedings of the Zionist General Council in Berlin were smooth and impressive. The only discord was the address by Dr. Wise, •whom the members of the Zionist body could not understand since he has not uttered a word of opposition in the course of the two months which elapsed between the non-Zionist conference in New York and his arrival in Berlin, Mr. Fishman stated.

NEW BUSSES and
Rerouting of Cars await traffic survey now being made # Applications have been made to us for twenty-nine new bos routes from as many different sections or neighborhoods of the dty, These applications are signed by people who want busses,, not alone for their own convenience, but for the convenience of their friends and neighbors. Also, they believe the busses they apply for will at least support themselves. We have numerous applications for rerouting and extending: present car lines, some of which would require new track construction. COST WOULD BE $500,000 x
To grant an these requests would cost more than $500,000 for new equipment, material and labor. In addition to the initial expense, there would be continuing maintenance and operation It is obvious that all this expense should not be undertaken without assurance that the improvements asked for would produce sufficient additional revenue. Present car riders probably would not care to pay the necessary additional charges. Under our new franchise, the city council has authority over new lines and extensions. The franchise also directs the council to consider "the initial cost and the resulting increased expense of operation." As a fair-minded body, the council would of course consider these matters even though they were not in the franchise. To enable the city council to act intelligently on questions of bus extension and rerouting of car lines, and also to get accurate information on all other traffic problems in Omaha, the council several months ago arranged for a cify-wide traffic survey by Ross Harris, the best known -traffic engineer in America. This survey beg an in October, and iB now well under way. It probably will be completed within three or four ' months. Mr. Harris' headquarters are in the city hall. The work of his organization, which requires from thirty to fifty people at all times, is under city supervision.

Mr. Harris' office is open to the public at all times for suggestions and other information. The city council has provided that before his final report is made, he must hold public hearings, giving an opportunity for ' '" "• ' Any individuals or organizations to present all ideas or facts they may •have regarding traffic conditions and traffic needs. . . . With the completion of this survey, which will include traffic conditions ' and traffic requirements in everv section of Omaha, outlying as well a* downtown, *he city council will then have all the facts bearing upon the transportation needs of the city and will then be able to rule wisely on what "extensions and rerouting should be made.
I,
It is onr desire and intention to give adequate transportation serviee to the entire city. To do this probably will require some changes and extensions. Such changes and additions as are made, however, should be sound. And we, therefore, earnestly request those Who are asking for new or additional transportation service to bear with US until the facts are in haria, which facts we will have when the traffic survey ie complete.
