NATIONAL HOME
Palestine For The Jews LONDON, Aug. 23. Lord Strabolgi, in a speech at the British Palestine Club, said: “The Labour Government is bound by every obligation of honour and national interest to facilitate the establishment of a Jewish national home in Palestine. I am confident that this will be a long-term policy and will be carried out as soon as the general situation is clearer.”
He said that a short-term policy should be to permit a reasonable number of homeless survivors of Nazi persecution to emigrate to Palestine; but the best solution would be to allow Palestine to become a self-governing Dominion. Lord Strabolgi added that he was sure this would be the solution eventually arrived at.
