OP) . On !' tho river Jordan, half an lurtn 's I Journey south of tho Sea of Galilee. steady progress Is being made In the consi ruction of a great hvdro- eleetric powor station which will 1 usher In a new economic era for! tho Holy Land. 1'nder the supervising genius of a former Russian revolutionary lend er, Plnhas llutenberg, head of the Odessa police during tho Keronsky regime, the storied stream of P.ililc times Is to bo mndo to produce i 300,0110 horsepower of energy fori new Palestine's farms, liomes and .factories. Palestlno has no coft of Us own, at nil events as far ns can be Judged from superficial geological Investigations. Nor can it boast of petroloum deposits worth exploit ing. Its economically exploitable re serves of energy aro concentrated in its -water resources. Whoever has tho control of thoso resources! can monopolizo the driving force of Industry and of agriculture, antl I can Influence decisively the devel opment of the country from nn economic point of view. Kitten- ' berg is In that position. Racked ! by tho Zionist Oi'KiPulKntinn, he se- j cured tho concession for the whole! exploitation of these resources nnd : for the supply of electricity for the i whole of Palestine, with the excep tion of Jerusalem, the government j having reserved to Itself control of j the prices for electrical current j over nnd nhovo a certain minimum, ! anil a share in tho profits. o ( . Th scheme which Riitenherg 1st trying to realize. Is to use tho dif ferences of level to be found nlong tho course of tho Jordan from the Lake of Merom to tho Dead Sea, starting with tho stretch between j the Sea of Galileo nnd DJIsr. Along this stretch of about 10 miles there Is a drop of 150 feet. A liltlo later, in DJIsr, In tho Rutenberg domain proper, down in a rocky hollow, the river comes Into view ngnin. Across-1 ho Ynrmiik, which com ing from an easterly direction here flows into tho Jordan, the scaffold ing of a dam 25 foot high may be seen. This dam, now almost com pleted, is to force up tho waters of tiro river to a height ot fifty feet above the level of the sea of Gali leo Into a giant reservoir naturally formed hy the hilly character of tft.i fi.glon'. Opposite, ncross the Jordan, a second dam Is being built. This, when completer). Is also to force hack the waters of tho Jordan and to collect them In a reservior.
