Since, as it was pointed out, the coming three weeks will cause great concern to the Palestine government, the acting chief secretary today invited the editors of all newspapers and urged them to refrain from exciting language. He said that while the government did not expect disturbances, on a number of occasions in the past sad happenings had occurred during this period and hence the greatest caution was necessary. He told the editors that the government was considering measures to assist the press in guiding public opinion, but it was hardly likely that these measures would be put into effect before 1931.
