Pressure on the United States
Government to use it's influence to
open Palestine to free Jewish immi-
grafton took two forms today.
First, it was announced an "un-
official delegation, including sew
eral members Of Congress, would
go to England within the new two
or three weeks to urge the British
government to modify it's policy
against Jewish immigration into
Palestine.
Second, four members of Congress
demanded that consideration be
given resolution which would place
Congress back of proposal to have
, this Government take appropriate
measures" to open Palestine to jew
ish immigration and the ultimate
establishment of Palestine as a free
and independent democratic state,
with full citizenship rights for its
inhabitants without discrimination
based on racial or religious factors"

Tobey. Republican, of New Hamp-
shire; Senator Myers, Democrat, of

1t is reported that the British

the immigration bars in Palestine
provided the United States will as
sumo part of the responsibility if

rumored that joint American and
British commission would be sent to

Mr.. Gillette, Senator Tobey, Mr.

confidence that steps would be taken
to make it possible for the main

in Palestine. Mr.. Gillette said he
saw little chance of conflict with the
Arabs if the issue of Jewish immi-
, grafton was pressed. He insisted
that none Of the responsible Arab
leaders in Palestine had protested
letting down the immigration bars.
: In a statement urging the adop-

legislators said:

WASHINGTON, July 5 - Ry
There's pretty good evidence
that the new Secretary of State,
James F. Byrnes, will shake up
the State Department.
He has announced:
Il have asked the director of
the budget to make an investi-
CATION of the structure of the
Department. Until ! receive that
report and have an opportunity
to study it and make such per-
sonal inquiry as l deem advisa-
BILE, no change in personnel will
be made
When Edward r. Stettinius,
Jr.-Byrnes' predecessor in the
job-took over last December
he began recognizing the de-
partment, but that wasn't very
drastic.
Until that time the Depart
ment had rocked along, target
of critics who complained 1t
was wrapped in mothballs, and
Byrnes now apparently expects
to continue the job Stettinius
started.
He's. expected to have pref
ty free hand from President
Truman who, unlike President
Roosevelt, has not been practis-
-ed=in5 internationala affairs.
The mid-western Truman has
spent most of his time, until en-
tering the White House, upon
