Police intervention and the arbitration of Moses Smilansky and Aaron Hankin, the latter a prominent land agent, were futile in preventing a disagreement between colonists in Kfar Saba and the Histadruth (Palestine Labor Federation) workers in the colony. The dispute arose when the Histadruth workers opposed 25 workers, members of the Brith Trumpeldor Society, who had been invited by the colonists.
They declined to register with the Labor Bureau because they say they are opposed to a class war and favor the organization of a national labor bureau. All 25 of the Brith Trumpeldor workers were removed from the colony by the Histadruth workers.
