Britain Yields to Terror
philadelphia Record


The British proposal for an independent AraE
State in Palestine, to be preceded by abandonment
If the British Mandate is another victory for terror
ism in world in which terror has of late been spec
tacplarly successful.
The proposal that the Jews accept a permanent
minority status, at the tender mercies of the Arabs
proposal that Arab extremists led by the exiled
Grand Mufti Of Palestine, have extorted from the
English by force and force alone.
The betrayals involved the tearing up of the Bal
four Declaration of 1917 which promised the Jews a
national home in Palestine the callous disregard OF
The terms of the League of Nations mandate are of
the order as the betrayal of Czechoslovakia a
few months ago.
The moral responsibility of England is even
sharper for it the express specific backand-
white promises of the British that Jews were per-
suaded to send 100000 of their people to Palestine and
to invest S500000000 in turning desert into garden
Not only is Colonial Secretary McDonad's pro-
posal surrender, but it is surrender to the most
violent and extreme of the two Arab groups It is
not generally understood that the Grand Muftis
fanatics have slaughtered more Arabs than Jews in
their drive against the Mandate. They have used
terror not only against Britain but against the mod
crate followers of Ragheb Bey Nashashibi to swing
them into line.
So deep is the hatred between these two Arab
groups that they refused to sit together the begin
ming Of the London Conference Palestine In
January alone 81 Arabs killed by the Mufts
trenlists for opposing the program of violence
Mcdonald (who entered the conference with a
broad if unofficial, assurance that England would
stand by the Mandate) brought the Arab groups to-
gether only by pulling proposal of his pocket
sweeping that it included the programs of both
Arab groups 1t is unconditional surrender of
British standing and prestige
1t is perfectly true that both the Arabs and the
Jews have historic claims to Palestine Such claims
of small moment after the nations of the world
have allowed situation to arise in which half a
million human beings have gambled their lives and
possessions on a specific pledge. To maintain the
status quo is the least civilization can do
The British plan will be callous preparation for
period Of murder and oppression perhaps without
parallel in recent memory.

Children the Real Victims
Cleveland Plain Dealer

When the passions of prejudice have cooled there
will be terrible monument left to the memory of the
Nazi state in the $4,000 children made to suffer be-
the regime does not approve the race religion
politics of their parents The heplessness OF these
Victims all under IA years of age shown recently
when several hundred of them were shipped out of
Germany with only 40 cents in their pockets and an
unknown future ahead.
Senator Wagner has introduced resolution, now
before the Senate committee immigration, to per-
nit 10000 of these children to enter the United States
in the calendar years 1889 and 1910 They would be in
addition to the regular number admitted under the
quota system
Private individuals and public charities would pro-
vide for their future. In no way would they become
public charges in any degree threat to employ
ment. Senator Wagner's plan has been Endorsed by
labor, the Catholic and Protestant churches and by
leaders throughout the country
The United States of course, should not feel
bound to take all refugees but it should furnish
haven for portion of these children. Little Holland
has already accommodated 1700 of them. Britain is
finding homes for 5000 more. Ten thousand not
too many for this country with its and its
organized charity When the resolution is considered
it will be well to keep in mind the misery such act
will end and its humanitarian influence on the rest
of the world.

One way to be convinced they do is to sit in a

This happened in Juneau Wednesday evening,
