A Cairo dispatch to the Times quoting Ragheb Bey Nashashibi, leader of the Palestine Arab moderates, pointed today to the possibility of neither the moderates nor extremists being represented at the forthcoming British-Arab Jewish conferences here. Commenting on the British Government’s acceptance of a five-man delegation of the moderates, Nashashibi stated that if the arrangement resulted in the withdrawal of the Palestine extremist delegation from the conferences, his delegation was prepared to renounce participation and accept any solution accepted by the representatives of the Arab countries without the cooperation of any Palestine representatives whatsoever.
