Palestine Again
BY SAMUEL STEIN
Daytona Beach

Recently in a radio address, for
mer Undersecretary of State Sum-
ner Wells said, "It would almost
seem as if an effort were being
deliberately made to provoke the
Jews now in Palestine into gen
eral revolt and thus make wholly
impossible the negotiation Of any
settlement between the Jews and
Arabs which could be submitted
to the General Assembly of the
Palestine problem" Now in 1921
at the Paris Peace Conference
King Feisel of Era, who was the
chief spokesman of all the Arabs
said it was to his entire satisfac-
ton to set aside Palestine as a
National Home for the Jewish
people. Feisel, who was unques-
tionably the ablest of all the Arab
chiefs, had welcomed the Jews
back to the Near East, convinced
that their return would prove a
real blessing to the Arab nations,
but it seems that England's pol
icy is to repudiate the Balfour
declaration and to brew hatred
between the Jews and Arabs. Had
England been sincere with the Bal
four Declaration she would give
one wink to the Arab Kings, most
of whom are on the English pay
roll, and the disturbance would
cease and the peace Of the world
would be on a better footing. Or
let England step out of it entire
ly for the sake of human suffering.

New D. {. Chapter in
Racial Controversy
Will Fight Injunction
Sought in Dispute Over
Exclusion Of Negro

The American Association of
University Women will 60 into
court to fight the preliminary
injunction sought by its Wash
ington branch and will form a
new branch composed of women
willing to operate without ra-
cial discrimination, an attorney
for the national group said to-
day.
The attorney was Charles A.
HorSky, who is associated with John
Lord O'Brian in representing the
national group.
Although today was the deadline
given by the national board for the
Washington branch to decide to
change its membership rules or face
exclusion, a restraining order pre-
vents the national board from act
ing until May 13, Mr. Horsky ex-
planned. On that day, hearing is
scheduled on the preliminary in
junction.
Today, DR.. Althea K. Hotel, dean
of women at the University of
Pennsylvania and president of the
association. issued a statement de-
claring that since the branch has
decided not to follow the member
ship policies of the association lit
should not, of course. expect to op-
crate as unit of the American

No Hasty Eviction Planned.
She added, however, that the court
order obtained by the branch repre-
sents "unwarranted apprehension
since mo haSty eviction from the
building owned by the national as
sociation was or is contemplated.
Mr.. Horsky indicated the national
group is basing its fight against the
injunction squarely on the issue OF
