How this transcription was made

Context added by this archive
July 1921, in the New York Times, and the second line contains the word in the paper’s own voice: what the Moslems and Christians are bitterly opposed to is colonization by Zionist immigrants. Not settlement, not immigration — colonization. The third line says the piece gave all sides their views, which in 1921 included that one.
Two months earlier the same paper had reported them forming an association to protect their rights (CP-1921-001).
