ZIONISTS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD
CONDEMN PROPOSAL TO ESTABLISH
PALESTINE JEWRY AS A MINORITY

(CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE)

background In favor of a united
front against the new threat to
the Jewish Homeland growing out
of the reported plan to make Pal-
estine an Arab state in which the
Jews will be given minority status.
This was disclosed with the send-
ing of a joint cable to British
Colonial Secretary William Orm-
shy-Gore by Dr, Stephen S. Wise,
leader of the anti-partitionists, and
Louis Lipsky, principal spokesmen
for those favoring partition. The
cable protested against the reports
that the British government is pre-
paring to solve the Palestine
problem by according the Jews
minority rights in a Palestine that
will be an Arab state. The cable
declared that "We support the
declaration of Ben Gurion reject-
ing a minority status, temporary
or permanent, for the Jews in
Palestine."

Join Against Minority Status
J E R U S A LEM (WNS-Palcor
Agency) — Continuing rumors
from London that members of the
British cabinet are urging crys-
tallization" of the Jewish National
Home has united foes and friends
of partition to protest against the
imposition of a minority status on
Jews in Palestine,
A special meeting of "nelnsag-
ers" (foes of partition) held in
Haifa heard Menahem Ussishkin,
chairman of the Zionist Actions
Committee and prominent oppon-
ent of the division of Palestine,
emphasize condemnation of the
"crystallization" idea. "The 'nein-
sagers' of all parties are united in
energetic opposition to the crea-
tion of a minority status for Jews
in Palestine. But they are opposed
with equal firmness to partition as
the solution of the problem," the
veteran Zionist leader declared.
Sir Arthur IVauchope, High
Commissioner of Palestine since
1931, will leave his post in Febru-
ary, he stated in Tel Aviv during
a visit to the Reading Power
House, He promised his hosts that
before his departure he would
deliver an official farewell address
in the all-Jewish city.
The Jewish National Fund
planted, during the year of
1937. • half million trees. The
National Fund thus helped
carry out the pledge it made

for the various settlement areas.
The most ambitious of the pro-
jects now in execution is the
scheme undertaken by the Meko-
rot Water Company, which is to
convey water from the eastern
part of the Emek Zebulon (near
Kfar Hassidim and Pamat Jo-
hanan) to the western Kishnn
bloc, transforming 8,000 dunams
of unirrigated land into an irri-
gated area

during the disturbances that
where one tree fell many others
would rise to take its place.
The 500,000 trees replaced the
70,000 that were destroyed by
arsonists and vandals during
the past year It was decided
that • special forest campaign
to be conducted by the Jewish
National Fund on the 15th of
Shevat would be used for the
planting of a forest at Kiriath
Anavim in memory of the five
colonists who were sssss sinated
on Nov. 9.
Acre jail was the scene of the
hanging of the second Arab con-
demned to death by a military
court. The man executed was Ib-
rahim Nasser, sentenced by the
court at Nablus on Dec. 22 for
carrying a loaded revolver, Maj.
Gen. Wavell also confirmed the
death sentence meted out to Sulei-
man Mahmoud, who was arrested
on Dec. 23, carrying a German
rifle during an encounter with
troops in the north, Mahmoud had
been condemned by the court at
Nazareth on Dec. 30.
Discovery of a large quantity of
arms in Lebanon confirmed the be-
lief that a heavy traffic is going on
in arms smuggled into Palestine
for the use of tne terrorists. Leba-
nese police at Tripoli seized a
batch of rifles, revolvers, ammuni-
tion, explosives and three machine
guns, believed destined for terror-
ist gangs in Palestine.
The colony of Rehoboth was
deeply shocked by the strange in-
cident of a planter firing at Jews
asking for work. A group of Jew-
ish laborers had come to the house
of Michael Levin, citrus grower,
to demand work in his grove in
the place of Arabs now employed
there. When Levin refused to see
a delegation of the workers, one
of them hurled a stone through the
window. Thereupon Levin picked
up his rifle and fired into the
crowd, which scattered quickly. No
casualties occurred
