According to figures made public here today by the executive of the Jewish Agency for Palestine, 30,000 Jewish immigrants legally entered Palestine in 1933. These figures do not include tourists who have remained in Palestine without permission. The Agency figures are based on official government statements up to the end of November and included an estimate for December 1933.
