First read as a paper to the Jewish Historical Society of England in February 1918, this study traces how the European powers and the United States intervened on behalf of persecuted Jews, by appeals to humanity and by treaty right, and how the Palestine question arose. It prints the protocols, treaty clauses and diplomatic notes that its author hoped would guide the coming Peace Conference.
