to Fight Reversal

Organization of America, the
Jewish National Workers Alli-
ance, Pioneer Women's Organi-
zation and Habonim.
Asserting that the trusteeship
plan was a victory for Britain
and the Arabs, Dr. Silver said
the proposal would entail re-
strictions on Jewish immigra-
tion and would, consequently,
leave the Jews with no other
alternative than fighting.
He charged that "the question
of implementing partition was
never discussed by the Big
Four" and that "it was never
the intention of the United
States seriously to have it dis-
cussed." lie accused the U.S.
of being "the principal factor in
undermining the UN."
HITS OIL INTERESTS
Dr. Silver blamed, the oil in-
terests for having "organized a
systematic campaign to persuade
the American government to
alter its position" on partition
but the plan as evolved, to
which, he said. President Tru-
man became a convert, "was
presented to the American peo-
ple in the light that partition
was a threat to international
peace."
He charged that "oil imperial-
ism is hiding itself behind the
American flag" and that "all this
is part of a plan to make the
Zionist movement abhorrent in
the eyes of the American peo-
ple and linked with Commu-
nism."
Dr. Emanuel Neumann, presi-
dent of the Zionist Organization
of America, charged that aband-
onment of partition was "one of
the vilest intrigues in interna-
tional history—a plot hatched

ed a bill to legalize the ship-
ment of arms and munitions to
Palestine despite the State De-
partment embargo.
In the Senate, Irving M. Ives,
Republican of New York, assert-
ed that he knew that "this whol-
ly, catch-as-catch-can, will-o'-the-
wisp policy does not represent
the character of the American
people."
Meantime, stressing that the
U. S. visualized a temporary trus-
teeship, Secretary of State Mar-
shall stated that it "could be
ended as soon as a peaceful so-
lution can be found" and that its
existence would not prejudice
the eventual political settlement.
Regarding the authorship of
the new plan, Marshall said that
the plan "appeared to me, after
most careful consideration, to be
the wisest course to 'follow. I
recommended it to the President
and he • approved my recom-
mendation."

The explosion of a truckload
of dynamite leveled at least
eight houses in one block in the
Arab section of Haifa. At least
17 persons are known to be
dead and 50 wounded, and the
casualty figures are expected to
go much higher.
The blast is believed to be
the work of Sternists in retalia-
tion for the bombing of the
Solel Boneh building in Haifa.
Eyewitnesses said that two men
driving a three-ton. military type
truck abandoned the vehicle in
crowded Iraq Street and sped
off in a jeep which preceded
it into the Arab neighborhood.
All four men involved were
dressed in British uniforms.
2 ATTACKS REPELLED
Haganah forces drove off an
Arab band of 1,000 men which
had entrenched itself around
Hartuv, in the Judean hills be-
tween Jerusalem and Tel Aviv,
after an all-night attack. At
least 40 Arabs were reported
slain.

Britain Spurs Arab Invasion
for May 15, Granados Says

NEW YORK (Special) — Dr.
Jorge Garcia Granados, retiring
Guatemalan ambassador a n d
chief delegate to the United Na-
tions, charged that Arab bands
have been permitted to enter
Palestine on the condition "that
they delay the opening of their
attacks upon Palestine Jews un-
til May 15, the date when the
British Mandate ends."
"This," he added, "is invasion
by consent—and the blame for
it falls upon the shoulders of
the British."
UNSCOP MEMBER
Calling attention to the fact
that he was a member of the
United Nations Special Commit-
tee on Palestine and that he
had signed the majority report,
Dr. Granados denounced Great
Britain's "policy of obstruction
against the United Nations' de-
cision to partition Palestine de-
spite her specific promises."
The Guatemalan diplomat cited
the answer of Sir Alexander
Cadogan that Great Britain "as
a good member of the United
Nations would not obstruct par-
tition."
Dr. Granados then deplored
the "lack of desire on the part
of the United States and other

governments to implement this
United Nations' decision despite
the firm position she took in
the fight for it and, third, the
current trend of thought which
suggests that because there is
now violence in Palestine, par-
tition is impracticable and not
the proper solution."

He emphasized that all mem-
bers of the United Nations in-
vestigating committee "knew
that partition had to be en-
forced," adding:

"There was never any ques-
tion of this. We examined all
possible solutions, we exhaus-
tively studied the matter of con-
ciliation and concluded finally
that partition was the only an-
swer.

"We knew too that our plan
was a rather delicate mechanism
which, while it did not demand
cooperation from Great Britain,
counted on Great Britain not
opposing it. But Britain has
opposed it, and upon her shoul-
ders must rest the blame for
the sorry state in which this
question now finds itself—and
the blame for the present blood-.
shed in Palestine."

unwanted, more desperate about
their future than ever before.
"War has been declared on the
Jewish people."
