I assume this is from a Studio project, in which case you'd be better posting to the AppleScript-studio list. But anyway, looks like you've forgotten to specify an insertion location for the new 'menu item' object in the 'make' command - see the 'make' command's 'at' parameter.
Remember, AS != ObjC. With application scripting, you always manipulate an existing application object model, not create application objects in isolation.
