A report from Jerusalem yesterday that Dr. Chaim Weizmann is determined not to compromise with David Ben-Gurion, was denied today by members of the Palestine delegation which is participating in the negotiations on Palestine being conducted here by Dr. Weizmann with British officials.
Individual members of the delegation all declared that the internal crisis in the ranks of the executive of the Jewish Agency was “satisfactorily liquidated” this week. They added that cables to this effect have been sent to the Jewish Agency in Jerusalem and to leaders of various Jewish political parties in Palestine.
Dr. Emil Schmorak, a member of the delegation, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that David Ben-Gurion’s return to the post of chairman of the executive of the Jewish Agency, from which he resigned several months ago, was expected in view of the fact that the cables sent Jerusalem specified that personal matters had been arranged in a manner which would satisfy Ben-Gurion.
