Jonah J. Goldstein, New York attorney, and Mrs. Goldstein arrived here tonight on the steamer “Bremen.” Mr. Goldstein received a wireless aboard the steamer from Dr. Chaim Weizmann, president of the World Zionist Organization, requesting him not to go directly to Palestine, as he had intended for the purpose of aiding in the investigation of the crimes committed. Dr. Weizmann requested Mr. Goldstein to stop in London to confer with him on coordination of American and British activities in connection with the situation in Palestine.
