All the Jewish Agency schools in Palestine are being re-opened to-morrow (Sunday) morning, the teachers having agreed to call off their strike, on the promise of the Palestine Jewish National Council (Vaad Leumi) to act as mediator in the dispute between them and the Jewish Agency, and to support as much of the teachers’ case before the Jewish Agency as it will find just.
As a result of the strike there has been a delay of a whole week in the re-opening of the schools after the Passover vacation.
