In view of the latest reports concerning the unabated terror against Jews in Nazi-dominated countries, the Jewish National Assembly of Palestine, in cooperation with the Agudas Israel Organization, will hold a rally here next week.

The meeting will attempt to map out plans for adequate action by the Yishuv to aid the Jews in Europe and will also forward demands to the United Nations urging immediate measures to rescue the Jews.

The Palestine Post, the only English language daily in the country, comments editorially today that unless the rescue of the Jews is handled according to the tempo of today and not that of 1939, there is little prospect that those Jews still surviving will be saved.
