LONDON, P)-The Labor party government issued today a grim white paper called "a working pattern for the nation" It told the austerity-weary Britons they must increase production or risk the foundations of our national life. |"
 The white paper-ueslgnation of important official documents is sued by the government-said:
 The nation needs coal, produc- tion, foreign currency.
 The private individual must continue rationing, forego hopes of shorter hours, increase his indi- vidual output in mine. mill, fac tory.
 Organized labor must abandon industrial arrangements which restrict production, prices or em- ployment."
 Industry must export One-fOurth its products and accept a stern system of priority allotments of manpower and supplies.

Is pounds or 500 we are still here

Emile Khoury, member of the
Arab Higher Executive in Pales-
tine, described the statement as
strangely like that by Mr.. Creech
Jones at our London conference
when he told us Britain would take
responsibility for a solution only if
it was agreed to by Arabs and Jews.
This will make our friends the Jews
very happy since it tells them they
can be even more radical in their
demands, knowing if the Jews are
displeased, Britain will stick by
them.

solemn announcement about the
termination of the mandate and
withdrawal of troops. But we wish
we could be sure Of the honesty
of this solmnity, particularly in view
of Britain's record in withdrawing
from Egypt"
Statement Given Committee.
Britain's position on Palestine
was set forth in a 1000 word state
ment before the U. N. Assembly's
Special Palestine Committee, in
which the British said they must
plan for complete withdrawal of
British troops and administrative
personnel from Palestine.
T. r. Lurie, assistant editor of
the Palestine Post, Zionist English
language daily in Jerusalem, COM
mented:
"It seems that if Britain wanted
to be helpful, it could have pledged
itself to help in implementing some
United Nations solution without
conditioning itself on a Jew-Arab
agreement. We know beforehand
there will never be a Jew-Arab
dSIecIIltIlC.
DR.. Hussein Ell Khalidi, secretary
of the Arab Higher Executive, said
six Arab states which signed the
U. N. Charter would take over the
military burden and maintain law
and order until a representative
democratic government is set up" in
Palestine.
DR.. Khalidi named the states as
Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and
Saudi Arabia, now U. N. members,
and Yemen, to be admitted at the
current Assembly session.
David Ben-Gurion, chairman of
the Jewish Agency Executive refused
to make a general comment on the
British statement until he had read
it in full.
He termed meaningless" how

Facing New Situation"
A British Foreign ONCE spokes-
man in London expressed hope that
as a result of the British announce
ment the Jews and Arabs in
Palestine might resolve their differ
ences.
1--WE are not counting on it, or de-
pending on it in any way" the
spokesman said, but the statement
of British policy does give the ir-
reconcilable factions in Palestine a
definite and new situation to face.
They couldn't come to an agree
ment while we were there. Now
that British intentions are clearly
understood the factions, facing the
prospect of our complete withdrawal,
may re-examine their own posi-
tions."
The spokesman declared that any
eventual withdrawal of British
troops from Palestine would not
mean British withdrawal from the
Middle East.
British troop strength in the Holy
Land has been estimated to be in
excess of 100000 men.
An Arab spokesman in London
said the British announcement was
"favorably received" but said the
Arabs would resist control by any
United Nation authority.
Trap for America Seen.
Israel Cohen, former general Sec
retary Of the World Zionist Organi-
zation, termed it "unjustifiable" for
Britain to say she would not employ
arms to carry out the United Nation
decision.
Britain has been using force of
arms in violation of the mandate
for the purpose of keeping Jews
out Of Palestine" he said.
In Cairo, the British announce
ment was branded by Sheikh Hassen
Evening star., 1947-09-27

el Banna, Moslem BrotheIkoci i
leader, as trap to scare America. y
The sheikh asserted Britain in
tended to make the United States
understand that the doors of
Palestine and the Arab east will be
opened to communism with the
evacuation of British troops from
Palestine.
America would then be obliged
to join Britain in the crime of illegal
occupation of the country" he said.
