The report of the Palestine Inquiry Commission has been signed and it will be made public as soon as the report has been considered by the Cabinet, says the political correspondent of the “Morning Post.” He says it is believed that a majority of the Commission takes what may be described as an anti-Zionist view of the working of the Balfour Declaration.
The “Morning Post’s” writer says that the delay in the issuance of the report which has been impatiently awaited by both Jews and Arabs is due to an attempt to reconcile opposing opinions in the Commission. In political circles here it is felt that it is important that the report be published before the end of March in order not to conflict with the findings of the International commission to be appointed by the League of Nations to settle the Wailing Wall dispute.
