The labor carried to the new country will naturally create trade. The
first markets will supply only the absolute necessities of life;
cattle, grain, working clothes, tools, arms--to mention just a few
things. These we shall be obliged at first to procure from neighboring
States, or from Europe; but we shall make ourselves independent as
soon as possible. The Jewish entrepreneurs will soon realize the
business prospects that the new country offers.
The army of the Company's officials will gradually introduce more
refined requirements of life. (Officials include officers of our
defensive forces, who will always form about a tenth part of our male
colonists. They will be sufficiently numerous to quell mutinies, for
the majority of our colonists will be peaceably inclined.)
The refined requirements of life introduced by our officials in good
positions will create a correspondingly improved market, which will
continue to better itself. The married man will send for wife and
children, and the single for parents and relatives, as soon as a new
home is established "over there." The Jews who emigrate to the United
States always proceed in this fashion. As soon as one of them has
daily bread and a roof over his head, he sends for his people; for
family ties are strong among us. The Society of Jews and the Jewish
Company will unite in caring for and strengthening the family still
more, not only morally, but materially also. The officials will
receive additional pay on marriage and on the birth of children, for
we need all who are there, and all who will follow.
