ARAB BITTERNESS.
Dissatisfaction With British
Attitude.
PROPOSAL OF BOYCOTT.
("Times" Cables.) LONDON, February 22. The Jerusalem correspondent of the "Times'"'" states that the Arabs' dissatisfaction with the new interpretation of the Palestine report is growing in bitterness. Political organisations throughout the country are protesting and proposing demonstrations in Palestine, Transjordania and Syria. The Moslem Christian Association of Jaffa, in a letter to the High Commissioner says: "The White Paper was only aimed to gain the sympathy of the Indians attending the Round Table Conference in London. When that closed the document was torn up." The association threatens to boycott the Jewish newspaper, and declares that in view of its 10 years' experience of British vacillation the present antagonism of the Arabs will merely produce a new anti-Zionist version of the White Paper.
