ARAB UNREST
THE SITUATION NOW QUIET.
AGITATORS' MISTAKEN BELIEF.
NO IMMIGRANTS FROM GERMANY
Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 9.50 a.m.) LONDON, October 30.
According to reports that are reaching London, the situation in Palestine was to-day quiet, though some tension will exist after the riots of the weekend. This morning the High Commissioner (General Sir A.. G. Wauchope) visited the Government Hospital at Jerusalem, to which those wounded in the disturbances on Sunday were taken.
The formal opening of the Haifa harbour will take place to-morrow, but the ceremony has been curtailed. ■' It appears that the recent troubles largely originated from 3; mistaken belief among the Arab population, that events in Germany had led to the admission to Palestine of a number, of Jewish emigrants. The fact is that immigrants of all nationalities are controlled by the Palestine Government, particularly as' regards those seeking employment, the numbers of whom are regulated by the capacity of Palestine profitably to absorb additional labour. —British Official Wireless.
