An all-Indian Moslem delegation, headed by Shaukat Ali, well known Indian Moslem leader, which was organized by the Indian Kahlifat group, central Moslem authority in India, is proceeding to London to discuss Jewish immigration to Palestine, which is alarming the Moslems of India.

Another Moslem delegation from India is leaving directly for Palestine, Syria and Egypt in order to present the Indian Moslem view on the necessity of concerted action on the Jewish problem in Palestine.

A meeting of both delegations was held here, presided over by Shaukat All, who emphasized the urgent necessity for an early solution of this problem, “which is creating bad blood between the two ancient races.”

At the same time it was announced that Sir Rabindranath Tagore, noted Hindu poet, is leaving for a personal visit to Palestine early in September
