PALESTINE JEWS WOULD RETAIN JEWISH LEGION J CSA EM.—The "Vogul Haz- mani," the temporary body of organ- ized Palestine Jewry, has submitted a memorandum to Sir Herbert Sam- uel. the British High Commissioner in this country. in which it is request- ed that the Jewish Legion at fires- Hut tinder arms should not be dis- . lianded as is contemplated by the g , ,, eminent but should be added to out enlarged into a permanent Jew- ish Defense force. The committee took this action at the initiation of Vladimir Jabotinsky who attended the last meeting of the "Veal Ilazmani" and determinedly fought for this defi- nite attitude on the part of Palestine' Jewry. The committee appointed Jabotinsky, Shocliet and Berlin as a special commission to handle the 'natter of ilii• Legion.

A large numbest of leading Zionists, lie said, were known to have been in commu- nication with the Allies and were spreading their propaganda, and they were treated accordingly.
