The fact that a still undiscovered Hebrew radio transmitter in Palestine is continuing to attack the land ordinance and the police for suppressing demonstrations following its issuance was revealed today in a statement by the Dominions and Colonial Department of the Ministry of Information.

The department also reports that Palestine has been quiet since March 8 except for an attack on a Jewish-owned truck March 27, when one Jew was killed and one wounded.

The Jews, the statement asserts, are adopting a “less uncompromising” attitude toward the land act, the leaders “realizing the harm done to the Zionist cause by the earlier violent manifestations.”
