REJECT
BRITISH PLAN
IN PALESTINE
BY FLOYD GIBBONS
Copyright, 1888. by international
News Service)

JERUSALEM, Dec. 23.-There
will be no peace in the land OF
Israel under the form Of self
government which King George
of England has offered in the
past two days to the people Of
Palestine.
The proposed legislative council,
which would have IA Arabian,
seven Jewish. and seven British
members, with veto powers in
the hands of the British high
commissioner, offers no solution
of the inherent, age-old conflict
between the Arabs and Jews.
Boycott Planned
The entire Jewish population
OF $4,000 will boycott the British
proposals. They will abstain
from elections, refuse appoint
ments, and refrain from any
participation in the measure,
which they denounce as a
hindrance to the country's pro-
greSS, incapable of fostering bet
ter relations between the Jews
and Arabs, and contrary to the
Jewish conception of a national
home for the Jewish people in
Palestine.
This emasculated legislative
debating society,"" stripped Of
all self-governing power, is even
more unsatisfactory to the
Arabian population of 100000,
some of whose leaders, however,
may advocate acceptance, hoping
thereby to obtain at least legal
rostrum from which to oppose
I, further acquisition of land by
Jewish financial powers and con-
.tinued Jewish immigration,
through which the Arabs see
sheir better than two to one
numerical superiority reduced to
/ minority with no political
potentiality.
Jews Turn 1t Down
The proposed measure practi.
cally amounts to Britain's calling
both bitter opponents to the cen
ter of the ring, offering them q
new and unsatisfactory set of
, rules, and then sending them back
to their corners to get ready for
the next round, which neutral
observers fear will plunge the I'M
happy, strife-torn Holy Land into
fierce violence and bloodshed,
with possible upheavals spreading
out to the entire middle eastern
MoSlem world.
When this next round starts
no one knows.
The Jews answered the British
proposals promptly yesterday with
q politely-worded refusal by DR..
} Chain Weizmann, the Zion chief,
to cooperate with the government.
The Arabs have until January
Z to answer.
If the Arabs also refuse to CO.
operate, the British will continue
the present status, and be able
to report to the League Of Nations,
that England's offer of a self
governing institution" under the
Palestine mandate has been re-
fused for the second time.

CAR ACCIDENT
. HAS POLICE
. GUESSING

Police today are wondering what
they can do to force a street car
tnotorman to report an accident"
This situation was brought
about by the crash, Saturday
night, of Capital Transit street
car and an automobile near First
Street and Independence Avenue
Southwest. The driver Of the au-
tomobile now is in Casualty Hos.
pital suffering from head injuries.
According to Fourth precinct
police, the motorman Of the street
car, whose name the police have,
failed to aid the driver Of the au-
tomobile, Clinton Baker, 80, 1926
Thirty.third st. N. W., while the
latter lay unconscious in the
street, but went through the
street car getting the names Of
witnesses to the crash.
No Report Received
Two taxi drivers took Baker
to Casualty Hospital. When po-
lice arrived at the scene, the
street car had departed and ef-
forts to get a report of the
crash from street car company
officials met with the statement
that a report would be sent to
the Public Utilities Commission,
police said.
At the Public Utilities Commis-
sion offices today it was said no
report of the crash had been
received from the transit COM
pany. This statement was made
by E. j. Milligan, chief clerk.
Under the traffic and motor
vehicle regulations, street cars,
drivers Of horSe-drawn wagons and
riders of bicycles are exempted
from hitrand-run charges. In Sat
urday nights crash, SpottSwood
Gravely. Fourth Precinct patrol
man, threatened to charge the
motorman with hit-and-run if q
report was not made. The report
was not forthcoming and Gravely
said he was told by Assistant
Corporation Counsel that he could
not prefer such a charge against
the motorman.
Officials Wonder
Traction engines, road rollers,
and vehicles propelled only upon
rails and tracks are also ex-
empted from the motor vehicle
regulations, it was pointed out to
Gravely.
It was brought out further that
speeding charges cannot be
brought against motormen be-
cause the vehicle and traffic reg
ulations specify "the operator Of
q motor vehicle" Street cars are
not mentioned in the regulations.

dering whether a street car can
