It is truly impossible to arrive at any understanding with Dr. Weizmann or with any other Jew, the Palestine Arab Executive declares in a resolution which it has just adopted following an all-day session held here attended by thirty members of the Executive.
The session approved the statement made to Sir John Chancellor, the High Commissioner for Palestine, on February 16th, by the officers of the Arab Executive (reported at the time in the J.T.A. Bulletin), rejecting Mr. MacDonald’s new interpretation of Palestine policy in his letter to Dr. Weizmann.
The meeting also ratified the decision to proclaim an Arab boycott against the Jews, and confirmed the resolutions adopted at various times by the Palestine Arab Executive and the Palestine Arab Congress denouncing the Palestine Mandate and the Balfour Declaration.
