Non-co-operation along the lines of the non-co-operation movement in India is urged here by Mr. Jemal Husseini, Secretary of the Palestine Arab Executive, in admitting to-day that the Arab tactics pursued hither to have failed, and insisting that a new policy is necessary, even if it means wholesale arrests as in India.

The Arab Conference, which is to be held in Nablus on September 20th., with the participation of Arab delegations from the neighbouring Arab countries, is to consider in this connection, the J.T.A. learns, a proposal from the Palestine Arab Executive that the Arabs should refuse to pay taxes.
