ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE
Voicing the horror of the Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai Brith
at the Georgia atrocity in which
four Negroes were burned, Su-
preme Court Justice Meier Stein-
brink, Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the League's Eastern
Region, tocii1y warmly commended
the statement by President Tru-
man denouncing the lynch out-
rage and calling for prompt ap-
prehension of the guilty. The
Presidential statement, released
by Attorney General Tom Clark,
was welcomed by the New York
jurist as concrete affirmation of
the American principle of demo-
cratic justice.
Judge Steinbrink, speaking for
the' League, pointed out that no
American dare remain complacent
in the face of such brutal racist
attacks. For an attack upon any
minority group, he emphasized,
constitutes a blow against the en-
tire democratic community. As
long as one minority is endan•

"No other interpretation can be
placed on Gen. Barker's order
which barred British troops from
fraternizing with all Jews as a
mark of British contempt.
"It seems likely that Gen. Bar-
ker will next command all Jews
In Palestine to wear a yellow
badge, a la Hitler," said Judge
Steinbrink. "If so, then the Bri-
tish in Palestine should adopt and
wear the 'double-cross' as their
own insignia. Gen. Barker's atti-
tude, apparently approved by the
British Government, smacks of
Britain's familiar imperialistic
diplomacy which, ever since our
own Colonial days, has sought to
rule by divide and conquer."
Judge Steinbrink, who is Jus-
tice of Kings County Supreme
Court, stated: "People of all
faiths, creeds, races and national
backgrounds condemn this latest
manifestation of cheap British
politics interwoven with class
hatred and anti-Semitism."

Talks Between
Arabs and Jews
May Begin Soon
LONDON (JTA)—Colonial Sec-
retary George Hall told the House
of Commons this week that he
hoped the round-table conference
with Jews and Arabs would take
place in the middle of August.
Acceptance of Britain's invita-
tion to attend the conference has
been received from Tansjordan as
well as from Saudi Arabia, a for-
eign office spokesman said. He
added that it is still uncertain if
the Arab representatives will agree
to attend a joint Arab-Jewish
meeting, if this is eventually
planned, or whether separate talks
with Jewish and Arab groups will
be held.
Meanwhile, a report from Cairo
said the Egyptian government is
planning to call a meeting of the
foreign ministers of the Arab
states to discuss the roundtable
conference. It said that Abdul
Rhaman Azzam, Pasha, secretary-
general of the Arab League, held
a two-hour meeting with minis-
ters of the Arab states in Egypt
to draw up preliminary plans for
the meeting.
It was also reported from Cairo
that Iraq has asked Egypt to call
an extraordinary meeting of the
Arab League states in the very
near future to divuss the Pales-
tine question.
Dr. Hussein Knalidi, secretary
of the Palestine Arab Higher Com-
mittee, said in Jerusalem this
week that "Arabs in Palestine and
abroad reject partition in what-
ever form it is presented." Com.
menting on the Anglo-American
experts plan, Khalidi added that
the Higher Committee had not yet
received any invitation to attend
the proposed London "round-table"
talks on Palestine.
