Some weeks ago the Jews of Tel Aviv went on a meat strike when the government declined to permit them to slaughter in a temporary abattoir in Tel Aviv and insisted that the slaughtering be done in Jaffa, as it had been done before the riots. After lengthy negotiations, the government finally granted a permit for the construction of a permanent abattoir in Tel Aviv.
