ARABS AND JEWS IN
 PALESTINE CLASH
Decision Over Establishment Of
 Zionist Homeland WidenS

Jerusalem, April 14.-The division
 between Arabs and Hionists over the establishment of the Jewish Home land in Palestine is becoming more clearly defined as the two opposing elements clash.
 Before Winston Churchill told the Arab delegation in London few weeks ago that the creation of a na- tonal independent government in Palestine could not be sanctioned now, the Arabs here had hopes that the Balfour declaration would be scrappcd and that an independent Arab Pales- tine would be set up under British advisors.
 Jamal Effendi Fl Husseini, secre- tary of the Christian MoSlem com mittee, whose aim is to combat Zion ism, told The Associated Press cor respondent that the Balfour declara- tion kas unjust and impracticable because it tends to sacrifice 800, ,000 souls on the cross Of political Zion ism. If is impracticable because if does not solve the Jewish problem since Palestine can a most aCCommo- date only 2,000,00O of the 14,000, GOO of Jews in the world"
 MT. Husseini defined the demands of the Arabs as including the right of Palestine 10 have control of it's in ternal affairs and of Jewish immi- grafton, the privilege of administering it's own finances and revocation Of the order that Palestine police force be organized by recruiting former British soldiers.
 "We do not resent the thought of a British protectorate provided we are permitted to retain our national entity" said Mir. Husseini. We are even willing to permit our foreign re- lations to be dominated by British policy" He pointed to the example of Malta as one which Palestinians would be glad to emulate.
 The Arab leader charged that the economic development of Palestine had been retarded since the Zionist organization gained ascendency and declared that the Palestine govern ment, at the request of Zionists, was refusing to grant concessions to either English or American companies and that consequently the land was economically stagnant.
 I1e utCidIt'i, lllil tIl' oliIS oo'o'ioii to the Palestine problem would be return to the starting point after the armistice and a settlement in con formity with the wishes of the Arab population.
 The other side of the picture is pre- sented by Levi Solomon. a leading Zionist in Palestine who declared that the Jews were anxious and ready to do everything ''in their power to ere ate friendly relations and mutual un- derstanding with their brethren the Arabs who are of the same semitic | race"
 "1'he presence of the Jews in Pal estine Is far from being preiudicial | to the interests of the Arabs" he said "On the contrary, it has proved very beneficial
 He enumerated number of enter prises which are being undertaken or planned by Jews. These included the Ruttenberg scheme for the generation of electricity, the Hafa bonded ware houses for facilitating foreign trade. harbor improvements of Java to make it a navigahe port all the year round and the building of several fac tories. These he said were only a few of the many Jewish schemes for the building up of Palestine.
