Simulteneous Jewish National Fund land conventions will be held on Jan. 6th in Palestine, American and England in order to bring to the attention of the entire world the anti-Jewish land restrictions established by the White Paper, it was announced here today.
The conventions will also attempt to devise means of opposing these restrictions, and to adopt methods for implementing plans for land redemption. It is also expected that the conferences will point out that the White Paper’s land restrictions, which bar the Jews from 95 percent of Palestine’s soil, constitute the only single instance anywhere in the world of legally practiced anti-Jewish discrimination.
