Haifa which began March 15, was concluded
in Haifa after an agreement between the His-
tadruth, Jewish Palestine's Federation of La-
bor, and the factory management. The strike
caused serious dislocation in the ,building
trades throughout the country, because Nesh-

Thousands of Jewish and Arab lower grade
and junior officials of the Palestine Govern-
ment began a work stoppage at midnight on
May 21 in Jerusalem, in order to draw atten-
tion to their demands for higher cost-of-liv-
ing allowances. The strike, lasting 24 hours,
also affected interurban telephone communi-
cations but did not involve personnel engaged

"The whole German people should be held
responsible . . . for the organized brutality"
in German concentration camps, Brigadier
General Julius Ochs Adler, U. S. Army, re-
tired, vice-president and general manager of
the New York Times, declared on his arrival
in New York from Europe where he was one
of a group of U. S. editors and publishers
who investigated German death camps on the
invitation of General Eisenhower. "More spe-
cifically, the war criminals should include
the higher officers of the GOvernment, all the
SS troops and the German General Staff,"
General Adler said.
"Anti-Semitism will continue t6 bother the
World, as it has for centuries, unless it is gen-
erally agreed that its solution lies in killing
off the remaining European Jews or in Zion-
ism, which is the antidote for that," George
E. Sokolsky, widely-syndicated columnist,
writes in the New York Sun . Two solutions
appear, "one is a demand for full and equal
rights everywhere, particularly the right of
the Jew to live • wherever he pleases, but,
"no matter what provisions are made in the
peace treaty . . . and nobody will go to war
over it . . the individual Jew wants to get
out of a bad situation and .has no place to go,"
Mr. Sokolsky says. "The other solution is
Zionism . . a practical solution except as it
comes in conflict- with newly generated Arab
nationalism and the British policy toward the
Moslem world."
A Congressional resolution "within the
next 60 days" will force Britain to rescind.

migration into Palestine, U. S. Senator Owen
Brewster of Maine announced in addressing
a meeting of the Ladies Apparel Division of
the United Jewish Appeal in Los Angeles.
America, he said, had a moral right to "a
periscope in the Middle East," which is a vast
storehouse of oil, and - a Jewish Palestine
would be America's best friend in that area.
Mammoth oil companies, lobbying at the
United Nations World Security Conference,
"have a two-fold objective, to protect their
interest in the Near Eastern fields and to ob-
tain oil sales monopolies in the smaller, new-
ly liberated European countries, Victor Riesel,
New York Post columnist reports from San
Francisco. "The Post was reliably informed
that these nations, through their officials here,
have been offered millions of _dollars by the
oil corporations for control of the petroleum
sales outlets throughout Europe," Mr. Riesel
reports.
