Abstract :
The waters of the Jordan River, in Palestine, once were regarded as having power to revive the souls and spirits of men; today the river is helping to revive industry in the Holy Lands. Bernard Flexner, president of the Palestine Economic Corporation, has announced that the new corporation will help finance the hydroelectric station on the Jordan which will supplement the electric power produced by oil-engine driven generators at the ancient towns of Tel Aviv, Haifa and Tiberias.
