and should back up Great Britain
in Palestine. but insists, and there
comes the real point of difference,
that Britain should hold Palestine's
door open to immigration of perse-
cuted Jews from Europe.
There was not enough difference to
be noticeable on this Palestine ques-
ton until rumors came that Britain
was about to make peace with the
Arabs on the pledge that no further
Jewish immigration would be per-
mitted Then there were quick re-
percussions from surprisingly wide,
ly separated groups in this country.
Now it SO happens that the one
criticism which the left wing ele-
ment of the New Deal has been
making of Secretary Hull has to do,
in part, with question of British
foreign policy. 1t has concerned the
Spanish civil war, with the left wing
ers insisting that the so-called neu-
trality policy of embargo against
belligerents actually helped Franco
and hurt the Loyalists.
Hit Hull Over Shoulders
OF So-Cailed Career Boys
Bearing in mind what has hap
pened to everyone who fought Hull
in this administration, notably
George Peek and Ray Moley, left
wingers were a little loath to stick
their necks out. So they invariably
attempted to fasten all the blame
on Sumner Welles, the under Sec
rotary of state, and the so-called
career boys in the department Of
state, especially as it has always
seemed comparatively easy to en-
rage the public against the "spatted
teacup balancers," who APE the
British both in accent and Clothes"
etc. Actually they were hitting at
Hull over the career boys Shout
ders.
The campaign, nevertheless. has
been carried on persistently. the left
wingers leaking allegedly inter-
esting incidents of how the wool
was being pulled over Hull's eyes to
their favorite newspaper writer's.
and always with Sir Ronald Lind
say, the British ambassador, as the
master mind in the strategy, and
the teacup balancers the eager
stooges.
Be that as 1t may, the left wingers
have endorsements in their deter
mination to force Cordell Hull's
hand, and to insist that the ''hands
across the sea" business with Eng
land must come to an immediate
end unless Britain goes down the
line for the creating of political
refuge in Palestine for all of Eu-
ropes prosecuted Jews.
