The government is said to have
a three fold aim: weakening of the
Haganah, so that it would be
unable to fight effectively against
either the Arabs or dissident
Jewish groups; incite Arab-Jewish
disturbances to divert Jewish at
tacks on the British; and provoke
incidents which will aid the mill
tary recruiting campaign sched-
uled to open in England shortly.
These reports indicate that the

$4,000 troops into Palestine on the
pretext that more protection is
needed for the Arabs.
A Haganah spokesman said that
new tension between Jews and
Arabs has arisen i'm recent weeks,
particularly along the borders of
neighbOring states. He charged
that the Arab League was behind
the campaign of ''incitement and

AMERICAN GROUP FOR

NEW YORK (Palor) :

NEW YORK (Palor) = A
new organization, known as
Americans for Haganah, was
formed at a rally here last
week in support of Haganah,
central Jewish resistance
movement in Palestine. In a
statement the new group de-
clared: 1--WE plan to tell the
American people about the
constructive, heroic work of
Haganah; how it is rescuing
Jewish survivors of Hitler
terror in Europe; how it is
transporting them to Pales-
tine" The American Friends
for Haganah also denounced
the Palestine extremists.

History repeats itself outside
the history books, too. For to-
davis example we will take Hal
Amin ell Hcsseini, the former
Mufti of Jerusalem.
Ever since the wars end the
United States has had in it's pos
session detailed files and docu-
ments attesting to Husseini's col
liberation with. the Axis. Non
governmental bodies have already
published a part of the mass of
available material. Last August
it became known that the State
Department had in it's possession
documentary evidence Of the ex-
Mufti's pro-Axis activities. At
Just about that time Husseini was
resuming political activity, fol-
lowing his remarkably unimpeded
escape from protective custody in
France.
Dean AchesOn, then Acting
Secretary of State, was asked by
this correspondent whether the
Department was considering pub
iicatiOn of it's materials on the
Mufti.
There was no plan said Mr.. Ach-
eson, to release specific docu-
ments, but all the Axis docu-
ments, including those relating to
the Multi, were being translated
and would be published. They
would be released together, he
continued, possibly in a White
Book. No date of publication was
given, the emphasis being on the
work involved in studying and
translating the papers.
That was August, 1916.
In June 1047 the question OF
publications was again raised. The
answer was the same, only more
involved.
Senator Robert F. Wagner of
New York wrote a letter to Sec
rotary of State Marshall, urging
that the documents be published
soon, to facilitate the work of the
United Nations Inquiry Commit
Tee on Palestine. To ascertain the
present view of the Department,
tnis correspondent, almost a
year after the first question,
asked Secretary Marshall, what
about publication. He had an an
Swer ready, = prepared by the
departments expert weavers:

City on Thursday night, July Srd,
The messages on the occasion of
the convention came from Sena-
tors Robert A. Taft of Ohio;
Claude Pepper, Florida; Irving M.
Ives, New York; Henry Cabot
Lodge, Jr., Massachusetts,; and
Senator Owen Brewster, Maine;
who will address the closing ses-
sion of the convention on Sunday
night.
Senator Taft in his statement
declared that "at this trying time
is the lives Of those thousands Of
Jewish refugees who have been
denied admission to Palestine iC
is more important than. ever that
we redOubIe our efforts to secure
the fulfilIment of the terms of the
Palestine Mandate"
Emphasizing that the Ameri-
can policy has been frequently
stated both by Congress and by the
Executive in favor of the estab-
liShment of a Jewish National
Home in Palestine and the opening
of Palestine to immediate unre-
stricted Jewish immigration" SEN
ator Taft added: "In the hearings
now being held by the United
Nations, the United States author
tiles should reaffirm our position
and insist on the performance of
the terms of the Mandate"
Pepper Asks ZiOnists To
Place Faith in u. n.
Asserting that "for some time I
have advocated that the problem
of Palestine and the Jewish Nat
ional Home be placed before the
U. NJ" Senator Claude Pepper in
his statement addressed to the
Zionist convention, declared that
he felt that mo solution would be
reached bilaterally between rep
resentatives of the Jewish people
and the government of Great
Britain or by Great Britain uni
laterally."
VOicing his expectations that
the U. N. proceedings will bring
"gOOd results, Senator Pepper
said: 1--WE all look forward to the
day when the displaced Jews of
Europe who seek a homeland will
find a haven of peace and
security"
"Any democratic proceeding is
slow, its course is uneven. There
will be delays in the U. N. pro-
ceedings, but I anticipate some
good results"
'I ask the Zionist Organization
of America and it's members to
place their faith firmly in the
United Nations because it is the
only hope of the Jewish people and
the members of every other relig-
ious faith to prevent the occur
renee of World War III and the
horrible destruction of human
beings and morals which would

Green's delay in signing the bill

Attacking widespread lay-offs
and down grading in the ISES,
Phillips pointed out that nearly
400 workers third of the total
foree-have been laid off, while
many others have received pay
cuts ranging from SIS to $165 a
month.
He said that the 1ay-offs had
cut deeply into the work of ad-
vising veterans and others on job
possibilities, and that services sup
piled to employers also were
sharply reduced.
THE GREEN administration is
trying to get rid of efficient non
political workers in order to make
room for political appointeeS, ="
Phillips declared.
Robert L. Gordon, state direc-
tor of labor, and "his two axe
men," Mark Costello, employment
service director, and James Hol-
icky, assistant director, were held
directly responsible for the con-
ditions in the ISES.
Phillips said that the lay-offs
had avoided the political appoint
ees, striking almost solely nom
political workers.

the process of raising a fund to

Ruling that tenants cannot be

week dismissed an eviction suit
filed by Arthur D. West, owner
of a IMPAIRMENT building at

Joseph Meegan, executive sec

Council, told Judge Heller that
West was trying evict all IA of
his tenants in order to partition the
apartments, rent to more tenants
and collect higher rents.

THE FACTS cAME-reluctant-
1y-from the office of the Hous-
ing Expeditor of Rent Control.
Oscar Abern, regional director
for the Office of the Housing ExA
peditor,. stated that 100000 rent
increase leases had been filed in
the. Chicago office as of Aug. II.
Abern ventured: ours is the
heaviest lease-filing office in the
country, outrunnng all other
cities"
ALTHOUGH he said that ma
tional figures were not available
for this week, figures estimated
week ago proved that only 276,-
900 leases had been filed through
out the entire nation Gncluding
Chicago.
Officials would make no COM
ment on the fact that Chicago has
taken ''the worst beating" from
landlords
However, the Chicago Real Es-
tate Board-biggest of the land
lord associations - was frankly
gleeful.
1T ISN'T EXACTLY victory"
chortled Jack C. Hosford, execu-
tive assistant of the board" but
it makes us feel awfully good"
Hosford ha-ha'd again. "It GER
tainly is step in the right direc,.
ton"
We're very happy to realize
the high degree of cooperation
between tenants and landlords"
said he, but we will only feel
gratified when there are no
more controls"
FROM VARIOUS tenant organ
izations came the bitter convic-
ton that the city's renters have
been made the victims of mon
StrouS hoax.
In Chicago as in no other city,
it was pointed out, the newspapers
unanimously backed the move for
a Is per cent rent increase.
At the same time, both city and
state Officials cooperated with the
real estate interests to cause de-
liberate confusion concerning pro-
jec&ed controls.
