About 20 Jewish families are returning to Hebron (as was foreshadowed in the J.T.A. Bulletin of the 6th. inst.) in the middle of the present month. They are all Sephardim, who are being partly supported by special Haluka. The Fugitives hope that permanent provision for their future and security will be made on their return.
Leading Hebron Arabs have approached the leaders of Palestine Jewry, the J.T.A. learns, to ask them to persuade all the refugees to resettle in Hebron.
