Many Communists, including Arabs participating in marauding bands, have been arrested in various parts of the country on charges of throwing bombs at Jews, it was reported here today. A teacher employed by the Government was arrested on a similar charge.

Four Jews were arrested at Petach Tikvah on suspicion of connection with the death of an Arab, whose body was found near Yarkona. They were released when the suspicion proved unfounded.
