Edward Jacobson, former business partner of President Truman in Kansas City, called on the President today to discuss the Palestine situation. He was accompanied by Rabbi Arthur Lalyveld of New York, director of the Committee on Unity for Palestine.
Mr. Jacobsen said that President Truman is “all for getting the Jews out of Central Europe right away.” Rabbi Lelyveld said that Mr. Truman’s attitude was “most reassuring as an indication of the President’s concern in facilitating the rapid transfer to Palestine of the 100,000 Jews.”
