Palestine Jews, Is To
SO, Registered For
National Service

JERUSALEM (JTA)-Registra-
ton of all Jewish men and women
between the ages of Is and SO for
national service was announced
after a joint meeting of executives
of the Jewish Agency and Jewish
National Council.
Those enlisting will be used %
for security purposes and (2) to
render the British army in Pales-
tine any necessary assistance, it
was stated.
The Jewish Agency issued a
statement calling for assistance to
the British army and people, and
urging discipline and national SER
vice. I'm this emergency, Pales-
tine Jewry must maintain a triple
'front.'" the statement said, for
defense of the Jewish homeland,
the security of the Jewish people
and the victory of the British
Empire" The statement added
that opposition to Britain's new
Palestine policy was not directed
against Britain itself.
A warning to weak people"
not to expect selfish advantage
from Europe's turmoil" was sound
ed by High Commissioner Sir
Harold A. MacMichael in a broad
cast to the country in which he
defined the issue of the war as
civilization against brute force.
Il have received many protesta-
tons of loyalty" Sir Harold de-
clared, "but to the many hoping
for selfish advantage from Eu-
ropes turmoil point out that
weak peoples cannot rely on a
brutal clique whose watchwords
are force and faithlessness.
Sir Harold appealed to all peo-
Piles in Palestine to sink their
differences. He said steps had
been taken to safeguard the inter-
ests of all communities.
Some 1900 Czech Jewish ex-
servicemen have been called to re-
port to the Czech consul general
here in connection with the world
wide preparations to raise Czech
army to fight Germany.
The moment war was declared
against Germany, the British au-
thorities detained Germans
throughout Palestine. The police
hauled down the swastika flag
flying over the German consulate
here, while Jewish crowds cheered.
A wave of enthusiasm for Brit
ain has swamped the bitterness
engendered by the White Paper.
On almost every street the CONVEX
sation turned to how the Jews
might help Britain. The Arab
Christian newspaper Falastin said
editorially that the Arabs must
also support Britain if only to
prevent the Jews from profiting
from their support.
