The government’s suspension for the third time since the riots of 1929 of the Hebrew paper, Doar Hayom, is sharply criticized by the other two Hebrew dailies, Haaretz and Davar. The latter charges that the suspension is due to the government’s desire to show the world on the eve of the parliamentary debate that a Jewish paper indulges in inciting articles. The Davar points out that the Doar Hayom’s criticism was directed at the government in London and did not endanger the peace of Palestine.
The Palestine Bulletin invites the government’s attention to the threats of Meraat El Shark, Arab daily, of fresh disturbances and of the Arabs’ preparedness to sacrifice their lives and to invoke the aid of the Indian Moslems to “cure Britain’s headache caused by the Zionist protests”.
