The notoriously anti-Zionist Daily Mail today sharply attacks former Premier Stanley Baldwin and former colonial secretary Leopold Amery for their “reckless letter” in yesterday’s Times “denouncing the government for its one sensible act in recent months and for professing that the abandonment of the Balfour Declaration is contrary to the intention of the Mandate.”
Millions of British money has been spent in an effort to uphold the Balfour Declaration, the Daily Mail Says, “the only result being to damage the prestige of the British nation throughout the world. The foolish experiment of forcing Zionist predominance on the people of Palestine has got to stop now.”
