ARAB FEAR OF JEWS
ADMITTED FROM GERMANY
MISTAKEN BELIEF
(British Official Wireless.) (Received October 31", 11 a.m.)
BTJGBY, October 30,
According to reports reaching London, the situation in Palestine was today quiet, though some, tension still exists after tho riots of the weekend. This morning the High Commissioner, Sir Arthur Wauehope, visited tho Government hospital in Jerusalem to which the wounded in Sunday's disturbances had been taken.
Tho formal opening of Haifa Harbour tomorrow will take place, but the ceremony has been curtailed.
It would appear that the recent troubles largely originated in the mistaken belief among the Arab population that events in Germany, had led to theadmission 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, numbers of whom are regulated not by .conditions* in pther countries, but by capacity of Palestine profitably to absorb additional labour.
