Making new layers in Quark

i am struggling to create new layers in a quark document does anyone know the format that will work i am using the following but keep getting errors

tell (make new layer with properties {name:"textenglish"})
end tell

This works:

tell application "QuarkXPress Passport"
	tell document 1
		make new layer at end with properties {name:"TextEnglish"}
	end tell
end tell
