REVIN OUTLINES
HOLY LAND STAND
Views Expressed At Farley
Startles Arab
Delegation

LONDON, Sept. 16. WD -
Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin
bluntly told the representatives
of seven Arab nations today that
no solution of the Palestine prob
lem was feasible or possible that
failed to take the Jewish minority
into account.
Bevin's outline of British views
of the Palestine problem Sc start
led the Arabs that they asked for
an indefinite adjournment OF the
Palestine conference to prepare an
answer. A spokesman for the con-
ference said it might" reconvene
Thursday.
The foreign secretary urged &C
ceptance of the federation plan as
a fair and workable" solution OF
the Palestine problem.
He also told the Arabs that the
Palestine problem must be con-
sidered in an international light
and must play it's part in solving
the world refugee problem.
The Arabs are dramatically op-
posed to the proposal to divide
Palestine into four federated states
with British control at the top. In
fact, it was understood that n OF
the ALTERNATIVES" they had intend
ed to present tomorrow was that
Palestine be made an independent
Arab state.

POLICE PREVENT
MOB ABDUCTION
Haywood County Officers
Protect Veteran From
Violence

WAYNESV1LLE, Sept. 16.-U.D-
Haywood County police today
frustrated an apparent attempt to
lynch a 24-year-old Negro war
veteran abducted by four white
men who were believed planning to
turn him over to an angry mob Of
some 400 citizens of Sylvia, N. c.
The mob was demanding venge-
ance for the beating to death last
night of William Jordan, a white
man, in the Negro section of Sylvia.
Paul Dorsey, the Negro veteran,
was in the Waynesville Jail tonight
and armed officers stood watch for
fear that a mob which gathered
in Sylvia, 20 miles away, earlier
today and dispersed when Dorsey
could not be found, might reform
and come here to try again to
lynch the Negro.
The mob closed in on the Sylvia
Jail this morning, believing Dorsey
was there. They threatened to
tear down the Jail if Dorsey was
not turned over to them. The
sheriff there allowed them to enter
the Jail and search it for Dorsey,
who was wanted for questioning in
the death of William Jordan. Jor-
dan, 4~5-year-old truck driver, was
beaten to death last night in the
Negro section of Sylvia.

had come to Seattle with a white

himself and Randall, while the lat

ing their baggage.
When the proprietress saw that
Randall was Negro, she asked
Dorman, why didn't your tell me
your friend was colored?"
Dorman said he didn't see what
difference it made. The woman
replied that he could not stay in
the hotel as my tenants wouldn't
like it," Upon being questioned as
to which of her tenants had OBJ

She flatly refused to permit
Randall to occupy the room for
which he was registered, saying

Later, in the presence of Dor

Marine Cook business agent, the
woman repeated substantially the
same line adding:
Hotels discriminate everywhere

When Dorman asked for a re-

The Real Lesson

The basic issue underlying the
continuing soft-coal controversy
has turned into this: Shall one
union have life and death power
over a priceless natural resource
on which our entire industrial sys-
TEN depends-his it the power to
arrogantly and successfully defy
the authority of the government
itself? Apparently it has.
No other construction can be
placed upon the reopening of the
uneXpired agreement between the
United Mine Workers and the gov
eminent.
Commenting on this situation,
the New York Times says: Clear
ly tn Administration has not yet
learned that it buys a score of
future stikes for every present
strike that it settles in this way
II has not yet learned that a
continuous policy of Yielding to
such threats merely causes a con-
slant increase in such threats and
constant increase in the price
demaded for settlement. 1t does
not seem to know that it is about
to set a precedent in the coal
fields for still another general
round of wage demands, more
strikes and wage increases. 1t is
giving a perfect demonstration of
what might have been suspected
in advance-that when the govern
ment takes over directly the set
