Excerpt from The Industrial Development of Palestine
The Jewish inhabitants reside chiefly in six towns - Jerusalem, J affa, Haifa, Safed, Tiberias and Hebron.
Jerusalem has a large number of artisans, nearly all of whom are drawn from the Jewish section of the population, yet owing to the fact that until recently there was little demand for their labour and the city had hardly any export trade, many were often unemployed.
