The question of sending a new Palestine Arab Delegation to London (of which there was an unconfirmed report current in Palestine last week-given in the J.T.A. Bulletin of the 11th. inst.) will be under consideration at the next meeting of the Palestine Arab Executive, which is to be held on Tuesday, the Arab papers state to-day, adding in connection with the suggestions made that the Delegation may be going to London to participate in the second stage of the negotiations between the British Government and the Jewish Agency, that the Arab leaders have informed the Government that they do not agree to a Round Table Conference. The Government, the Arab papers proceed, thereupon assured the Arab leaders that Mr. Ramsay MacDonald’s letter to Dr. Weizmann will not be the basis of the proposed conversations, which need not necessarily take place in the presence of the Jewish representatives. The Arab papers suggest that it would be preferable to conduct the conversations in Palestine rather than in London.
