Professing disappointment that the two Arabs from Hebron and one from Safed under the death sentence have not been reprieved the Arab Executive interviewed the High Commissioner today and urged him to reprieve them but the Commissioner declined. He did, how ever allow a telegraphic appeal to King George.

The Arab paper Jamal Al Arabia in sists that the reprieves did not compensate the Arabs for their lack of independence while the Falastin argues that the reprieves are not complete and hence of no value.
