The Arab daily paper, “Al Hayat,” organ of the extremists in the Arab Executive, was today indefinitely suspended for publishing a speech of Zaki Pasha, Egyptian Arab leader, in which he said that the Arab murderers of the Jews of Hebron and Safed are heroes before whom the Arabs should bow down.
It is understood, too, that the acting High Commissioner has requested the Grand Mufti, who is Zaki Pasha’s host, to warn his guest to moderate his language if he desires to remain in Palestine, otherwise he will be compelled to return to Egypt.
