En skog med sex miljoner träd planerad 1934
I en artikel publicerad i The Tuscaloosa News den 30 mars 1934 står att läsa på sidan 6:
- "After disposing of the business on hand, Mrs. H. P. Rees introduced Dr. Harold Francis Branch who gave a most informational lecture on "Palestine." Dr. Branch stated that Great Britain did more for Palestine in six months than Turkey did in four hundred years. He told of the splendid water supply, discussed the forest of more than six million trees, and stated that it has been the strong hand of England that has kept peace."[1]
