Palestine Partition
Suggested by Arabs,
Jews in Paris Say
bY the kssoeiaied Press

| PARIS, Aug 3-Jewish sources
said today that the present British
American cabinet plan for parti-
tioning Palestine was suggested by
Arab leaders during recent extra
ordinary negotiations between Brit
ain and the Arab League.
These sources said their informa-
ton came from the Middle East in
a confidential report dated July 28,
l946, and expressed the belief that
it represented an authentic account
Of diplomatic maneuvering in which
Arab leaders pledged eventual ac-
ceptance of the plan to admit 100.-
900 Jews to Palestine over the next
five years.
| According to the Jewish report
these negotiations began several
months ago, when the British gov
ernment requested the Arab states
not to press for an immediate de-
cision on Palestine, but to give
Britain time to evolve an interim
solution.
At the same time, this report said,
Britain committed itself not to carry
out any of the recommendations of
the British-American Inquiry Com
mittee before consulting the Arab
League again.
Insisted on 3 Points.
Such a message was reported to
have been conveyed personally to
the conference of Arab kings and
princes by the Saudi Arabian Ambas-
sador to London, who few to the
Middle East.
The Shah's conference, continued
the Jewish report, then directed the
regent of Iraq to inquire what sort
of interim plan was proposed. He
also was instructed to insist on
three things:
First.-Any solution in Palestine
must not strengthen or increase the
area Of any Arab country. This, &C
cording to the Jews, was because of
friction between Ibn Saud of Saudi
Arabia and the Hashamite family,
and was to guard against upsetting
the balance of the Middle East by
increasing the new kingdom of
Trans-Jordan.
Second.-No solution would be ac-
ceptable to the Arabs which estab-
lished an independent Jewish state
in any part Of Palestine.
Third. - Whatever solution was
adopted, the Jews must not con-
troll Jewish immigration.
If these conditions were accepted,
the report continued, the Arab states
would undertake to restrain the
Arabs in Palestine.
Scheme Taken Under Consideration
In the course of these consulta-
tions, these Jewish sources said
Nuri Pasha, former Prime Minister
of Iraq, produced plan suggesting
provincial autonomy for Jews and
Arabs with the central government
under Great Britain. He further
proposed the admission of 100000
Jews within five years-but on con-
dition that Britain and the United
States would promise to find shelter
for other Jews elsewhere in the
world.
Prime Minister Attlee did not &C
cept Nuri's scheme entirely, the re-
port added, but did take it as the
basis for expert consideration.
The Jewish report stated that
criticism of the British-American
plan by members of the Arab League
was to be expected. but predicted
that the Arab states-if not the
Arabs Of Palestine-would accept

In the midst of developing new
crisis over Palestine, Finance Min
lister Abdulla Suleiman of Saudi
Arabia and an Arab trade delegation
arrived yesterday to launch a pur-
chasing program in the United
States.
Diplomatic authorities said the
visit of Suleiman and the l3 mem
bers of his delegation had no con-

but some were afraid it might dew
elop connections in the days ahead
Some American officials believe
any economic assistance to the Arab
states should be made dependent on
Arab cooperation with the United
States and Britain on the Palestine
issue.
Meanwhile, it was learned author
itatively that the United States has
told Britain its view on the recently
proposed Palestine partition plan
and that this view amounts to a vir-
tual rejection of the entire proposal
