action in returning Jamal el Hus-
seini, Arab terrorist leader, to
Palestine was denounced as "an-
other step in British imperialistic
intrigue in the Middle East," in
a statement issued by the Amer-
ican Zionist Emergency Council.
After reviewing Jamal el - Hus-
seini's record of "organized brig-
andry, anti-Jewish and anti-Brit-
ish terror and pro-Axis align-
ment and activity before. and
during World War II," the Coun-
cil's statement declared: "Despite
this record of crime and treason,
Jamal el Husseini has now been
allowed to resume his political
agitation in Palestine. There .can
be little doubt as to the charac-
ter of his future activities. The
way is open for him again to em-
bark on a campaign of terror,
directed both against Palestine
Jewry and the moderates among
the Arabs who do not share the
extreme views of the Husseini
Party."
Britain's reason for re-import-
ing Jamal el Husseini, Amin
Tamini and other agents of the
ex-Mufti at this particular junc-
ture is clear, the Council said.
"The British Colonial Office is
now engaged in bolstering Pan-
Arabism and the Arab League,
which are meant to be instru-
mental in the perpetuation of
Britain's sole control over the
Middle East."

HAIFA, (JTA)—Jamal Hus-
seini, Arab extremist leader, who
was exiled from Palestine in 1937
for incitement against the Jews
and the British, returned here
this week. The Palestine Govern-
ment announced last week that
he would be permitted to re-enter
the country.
Husseini was greeted with a
blast from the "Voice of Israel'
radio, operated by the Haganah,
which charged that his presence
in Palestine "creates a perma-
nent danger for the future." It
said that he was not confining
himself to incitement within
Palestine, but was attempting to
extend his activities outside of
the country, by calling for a
mobilization of Arab political and
military force to combat Zionism.

Glowing Warmth

for Chilly Corners

You can banish chilly air these winter mornings with the glowing warmth of an
electric heater. These appliances are portable and easy to operate. Heat is always
instantly available from your nearest outlet with this modern device. An electric
heater is ideal for warming baby's bath area or as a supplement to your central heat-
ing system on extremely cold days. There is no cleaner, more convenient type of
heat. Detroit Edison's new low rates make electrical heating even more economical.

But Not For The Whole Room

The capacity of all electric heaters is plainly marked on each unit. The Detroit
Edison Company advises all purchasers of heating appliances to notice carefully
how much electricity is required to operate the model under consideration. Be
cautious of extravagant claims which imply that an electric heater may be
operated indefinitely at low cost and yet have sufficient output to warm large
areas. When an electric heater is used indiscriminately, abnormally high electric
bills can result.

Here is a simple rule to follow in determining the amount of electricity a heater will
use. Take the number of watts shown on the name plate divided by 1000 times 2
cents which will give you the minimum' cost of operation per hour.

For example, the minimum cost of using a
thousand-watt heater is equivalent to burning
ten 100-watt bulbs or seventeen 60-watt
bulbs. A 1000-watt heater costs 14c a week
if used one hour daily for seven days. The
same unit if used eight hours daily costs $1.12
per week and $4.80 per month. Buy your
heater from a reliable dealer who can tell you
the cost of operating a unit designed to suit
your particular needs.
