POWERFUL
JEWISH
BRIGADE
ON
REVIEW
IN
PALESTINE--The
eyes
of
the
world
are
on
Palestine
today
as
the
fight
for
a
Jewish
homeland
has
been
revived.
The
Arabs
say
that
Palestine
must
remain
Arab.
There
have
been
threats
of
a
Jehab
(holy
war)
that
would
set
the
entire
Near
East
ablaze.
But
the
Jews,
too.
have
armed
power.
Here
is
a
view
of
the
Jewish
brigade,
formed
before
the
war,
with
Eritish
authorization
to
defend
their
settlements
against
the
Arab
threat.
It
is
more
powerful
now
than
ever"
