BLOODSHED FEARED
BRITISH PROPOSAL SAID TO BE A TRICK
Recd. 10.30 p.m- Washington. Nov. 28. The British rejection of President Truman’s proposal for the admission of 100,000 Jews is denounced by some congressmen and Jewish leaders, says the “New York Times” correspondent
Rabbi Baruch Korff, leader of the rabbis who paraded to the Capitol, said: “This is the death sentence to European Jewity. The committee’s proposal is a well-known British trick to postpone action. I feel this announcement will cause bloodshed in Palestine.” Senator Mead (Democrat, New York) denounced the committee’s proposals. “I have no hone in the deliberations of a fact-finding body when action is needed.” he said. "If Mr. Truman’s proposal had been accepted, we would have found out much sooner how manv European Jews wish to go to Palestine.”
