CAVES IN PALESTINE LONDON, November 1. The Jerusalem correspondent of The Daily Herald reports that British sappers are laying death traps in the caves of Palestine’s “terror triangle” where a big band of Arab extremists is being rounded up. The area of operations is the mountainous district bordered by a line joining Tulkarem, Nablus and Jenia. The mountains are full of caves, many of which are known to serve as the hiding places of Arab terrorists Sappers leave a mine in each cave which will explode as soon as a tripwire is touched by anyone taking refuge. The correspondent of the British United Press at Jerusalem says the prisons are so crowded that the authorities are preparing concentration camps.
