Claiming “prescriptive rights” a number of Arabs from Hebron have commenced to plough and plant land abandoned by the Hebron Jews after the riots. The discovery was made on Sunday when Col. Frederick Kisch, Maurice Hexter. Charles Passman, Ben Zvi and H. Salomon visited Hebron to view the construction of the new Jewish quarter for the returning Jews.
