Arab landlords stand to lose $1,000,000 annually if the Jews carry out their intention of leaving all Arab premises by the next rent day, estimates Serat Moustakim in censuring the Arabs for profiteering from the anti-Jewish boycott while the Jews are quietly building houses and shops in Jerusalem, Jaffa and Haifa. He said “the Jewish boycott is natural and peaceful whereas ours is artificial and compulsory. We should utilize the same weapons as they.”
