asnlcably and it was Indicated that they would be renewed.
 General Motors Silent
 General Motors officials refused Co comment. Tn talking with them, Martin represented workers in the Buick plant nt Flint where a strike vote has been postponed twice.
 Martin said that all points of the workers grievances. except the S2- hour week, had been discussed. He said he would confer with the unions committed of 2B in Flint Thursday, and was hopeful of Q
 ft was reliably reported that no strike would take place ct Buick and that workers would not quit in Chrysler or c. M. after working 32 hours this week. Lester l.. Colbert, ChrysIer attorney, indicated that the corporation would probably call afl- other conference this week to dis- cuss the 32-hour week.
 The union contends that the shorter week is compatible with the contract signed by the company. colbert said tha tthe company did not agree. He said the contract specifically stated that the shorter week would be effective in layoh periods but was not specific, con. corning periods of rehiring.
 In Effect 10 Months
 R. J. Thomas, vice-president in charge of. Chrysler locals, said, hcw- ever, that 1t had been in effect in the company's plants for the past 10 months. workers who are not rehired before Nov. l will lose their seniority standing because many have been idle Q year on that date. The contract protects their stand- ing for just 0 year.
 Tn e radio address last night, Martin declared that the union was anxious for c peaceful solution of the problems which face the auto. mobile industry and the workers in that industry"
 "Whether or not peace prevails" Martin said, depends not only upon the approach the employer has to- ward the settling of grievances through the grievance machinery, but in addition to his efforts In preventing the occurrence of griev- ances."

 Going On Five Years

 The outbreaks, which have con- tinued sporadlcally for i've years, were of Q racial and political Fla- ture--a revolt by Arabs against Jewish immigration and an insist enct that Jews be kept subdued as a minority in the land of their fore- fathers. All terms for peace of- manded that Jewish immigration stop. The Damascus-P Palestine coina- mlttee for defense warned Chaiin WelEmann, president of the Zionist Federaticr, by telegram yesterday that his fight for Jewish rights was 'causing a1ti-Jewish feeling in Arab neighboring countries where Brit- ish bayonets cannot protect Jews"
 Accentuate Zlonism
 Weizmann replied today to the committte that "Arab prosecutions of Jews will only accentuate zioil- ism" He said that the present at- titude of Arabs toward Jews indi- cates the fate of Jews as . niinor- ity" under the proposed Arab settle. rnent plan, although he reiterated that Jews were willing to live peace- ably with Arabs if their rights were recognized,
 The British government feared that c holy war between Jews and Moslems might result. The heaviest British troop achievements were arriving on on route and Q puni- tive campaign against the Arabs was begun yesterday with the dyna- hitting of 2i Arab homes n Lydda and 20 in Majdallarb, c village h South Palestine.
