Circulars are being received by leading Hebrews In Winnipeg, calling attention to a con-vention to be held In Montreal next month. The object of this convention is to discuss ways and means whereby the Hebrews from all over the world may get back to Palestine i 'and refound the nation. There Is a prophecy recorded In the Bible that when this is accomplished the end of the world will come. Belief Is current among Hebrews of Canada that a victory for the allies will lead the way to a solution of the problem.

Palestine and Syria, they believe, will become British possessions, with probably a Frerch sphere of influence. In such an event. It Is thought that the allies wbuld have no objection to allowing Hebrews to return to their country and once more found a cation, with a flag of ils own. Assistance Is being lent to the I scheme by the Canadian Federation of Zionists, and Its machinery Is being used for arranging the conference which will be hld on either November 7 or November 14. The federation refuses to accept any responsibility for anything, however which may be done at this convention.

Already several delegates have been selected In Winnipeg and It la anticipated that every Hebrew or-! ganization In Canada will be represented.
