How this transcription was made

The scan is the two-line headline and the three-line summary; there is no body text on it to transcribe. The page was corrected against the New York Times’s own article index, which places this piece on page 3 of that day’s paper. The record previously carried page 1.

Context added by this archive

Three weeks after the Balfour Declaration, in the New York Times, as a plain statement across two lines. The line beneath makes clear whose views they are and that a leading American rabbi is expressing them. This is the earliest of the Jewish anti-Zionist headlines in this archive from after the declaration, and it ran as news rather than as controversy.
