London. Prof. Patrick Oeddes, town
planner, who has in hand projects for
the Improving of Jerusalem for tho
Zionist organization, aims fit mnUnn
the changes without destroying the his
toric and romantic aspects of the an
cient city, according to a statement
which he has given to the Zionist bul
letin. Prof. Goddes Mates that one of I.i,
nrst tasks will be in conneetinn .ih
the Hebrew university, nn.I ho hopes
to begin on that next year, utilizing
ouuuings already erected. Research
laboratories for chemistry w!L be a
feature of the school. Dr. Weizniann
the Zionist leader, who has been reader
In biochemistry at Owen's college
Manchester, will be in charco t
researcn work.
Prof. Geddes says he hopes also to
start a Palestine museum and suggests
that nothing more of historical and
archaeloglcnl interest should go out of
the country.
