Report of British Commission On Riots
Jaa Riots Last May Places Responsibility
Communists

stration last November, when Jewish
workingmen who refused to strike,
were attacked by the Communists.
On that occasion, the police arrested
several of the "Mops" and two were
convicted. The "Mops" headquarters
were raided and considerable quanti-
ties of communist literature seized.
The report now details the course
of events. On the eve of May-day 5
Jews were arrested for distributing
proclamations which carried instruc-
lions written in Hebrew, Yiddish and
Arabic, some of which were "Long
Live the Civil War;" "Long Live So
Wet Russia" "Long Live the Pales-
tinian Communist Party" "Down
with the British and French Bayo-
nets" etc. On May 1st, permitted
demonstration of the Achduth Haa-
vodah took place in Tel-Aviv. The
"Mops" demonstration was prohibited.
Nevertheless, it was held, and COLI
sions took place between the adher-
ents of both parties.
The police lost control of the situa-
ton altogether. Troops with arm
ored cars were called in to quell the
rioters. The police was inefficient.
Either 1t was unable TO cope with Cne
tumult, or it had been infected with
racial passion and was unwilling to
stem the raid of it's own people. The
governor of Jaffa, when informed that
there was trouble at the Immigrants
House which CHARTERED several hun
dred newly arrived Jewish immi-
grants, sent several officers to inves-
tigate. 1t was established that the
police fired at the gate, likewise that
two bombs were thrown from the
house and fell in the street. The
Rev. Martin, an Englishman, states
that the police broke through the door
of the Chalutzim House and lead the
mob into the courtyard. Men seeking
refuge were beaten to death, while
several others were killed by shots.
One woman was killed and many
others roughly handled. An Arab
policeman attempted to violate wom-
en-. He was later convicted and SEN
fenced to thirteen years inprison-
ment.

JOlsOn's Income

AL Jolson is just 80. His income is
variously estimated at figures up to
$4,000 weekly, including royalties on
records and sheet music. No actor re-
ceives such contracts, including per-
centage Of the total receipts of the
show, yet no actor has his tremendous
drawing power. None Of his shows
stands out, they're seldom above the
average. But they're always crowded,
because of his tremendous drawing
power. In Chicago, when "Sinbad"
was running, receipts were over $1,000
nightly. Jolson felt indisposed and
ran off to Palm Beach for a few weeks.
Receipts dropped to $500 nightly. And

London (Jewish Telegraph Agency.
The long expected report of the Of
fetal Inquiry Commission on the Jaffa
riots last May was published here by
the Government yesterday. 1t de-
clares directly that the demonstration
on May LIST of Jewish Communists was
the cause of the Arab attacks on
Jaffa and on the Jewish colonists and
asserts that the policy of establishing
the Jewish National Home in Pales-
tine is in part the cause of the dis
content prevailing among Arabs. The
Commission sat in Jaffa for several
months collecting and compiling evil
dence. Hundreds of witnesses were
heard and Investigators were des-
patched to various parts of the coun-
try to gather information. The re-
port is signed by Sir Thomas Hay
croft, the Chief Legal Adviser of the
Palestinian administration, Mr.. Luke,
who was Assistant Governor of Jeru-
salem, and Captain Stubs of the
Australian army. The report, when
offices here, was accompanied by
covering letter from Sir Herbert Sam
uel, who states that measures have

the police force and that owing to the
Arab complaint that they have no
body corresponding to the Zionist
Commission, a Committee Of Arab
notables has been formed. In pub
fishing the report, Winston Churchill,
the British Colonial Secretary, adds
that the report is "ably compiled,
lucid and we'll reasoned. Lessons"
he says, Learned in the Jaffa dis
turbances, will rule the action of the
police and military in handling future
affairs of similar nature"
The report begins by describing
the new Zionist immigrants who have
been arriving in Palestine, and as
serts that these are affected by Euro
pean labor politics and habits. "The
Arab discomfort with Zionism reached
it's climax during the demonstration,
when Bolshevik Jews melted workers
to civil war;" Here follows a de-
tailed discussion Of the Jewish labor
organizations - Achduth Haavodah
and "Mops," the Jewish Communist
party. It tells of "Mops" demon

present time is none other than Asa
Yoelson, son of the Rev. M. R. Yoel-
son, orthodox cantor of Washington,
D. C.
Asa himself, by parental decree,
was slated to follow in his fathers
footsteps and did, at an early age,
sing regularly in the synagogue. But
Asa, as he himself now admits, cast
ing a retrospective eye over the
period of his youth, was not dutiful
child and at the age of 13, shortly
after his Bar Mitzvah, he resigned
surreptitiously from his fathers choir
and plunged boldly into the dramatic
life Of the nations capital.
That is to say, he dipped, rather
than plunged, for he was discovered
by the Rev. Mr.. Yoelson three days
after he assembled the Thespic boards,
playing the heavy role of Hester
street urchin in street scene of
Israel Zangwill's children of the
Ghetto" Asa's father, unapprecia-
tive of his child's contribution to the
dramatic wealth of the city, took him
home and while the histories are
silent on that part Of young Asa's life,
there is a deep probability that Asa
received disciplinary action long asso--
ciated with woodsheds and paternal
belts. Anyhow, Asa returned to the
choir, and while the histories are
again silent on this important phase
also, it is said that Asa for week
or so was diffident and bashful as to
sitting down.
Asa Runs Away
AS the sub-titles used to say, 1.-TWO
Years Have Elapsed and Our Hero
well we find Asa at the age of Is run
ming away from home to enter the
Spanish-American war. He went to
Middletown, Pa, where naturally he
was rejected because of his age. But
fearing to return home, because of
that part of his life upon which the
histories are silent, Asa sang around
the troops for two months. He was
so successful as an entertainer that
wnen a circus came to town he con-
nected for vocal entertainment in the
"grand concert" that one who pays an
additional rs cents, is privileged to
stay behind, hear and see.
The circus, sad to relate, dropped
Asa from the payroll at York, Pa,
whereupon that young man got to
Baltimore via cow catcher. Some
day, he says, if the railroads ever
lower the fares, he will reimburse the
B. & o. for that trip. In Baltimore
he passed the tragic time as newsie
and singing in saloons, until his faith
er, by the aid of detectives, found and
brought him back home again.
Joins Burlesque
But he wasn't home long. Soon he
was in the chorus of AL Reeves bur-
lesque show, but Asa, always frail
and unhealthy, broke down and came
home, this time on his own accord. He
was II now and after he had regained
his health, he came to New York, sing
ing anywhere he could for enough to
give him three meals and bed. Most
of his beds were made, so it is related,
along the river fronts, where sleeping
quarters are most spacious, if not al
ways comfortable, clean and warm.
This continued for some time, until
Asa got into cheap vaudeville and
finally five weeks contract on Poll
time.
Then in 1909 at the Colonial Theater
in New, York, where he went on in
place of a Observation-Disclosures act, he
