Abolition of the White Paper and development of a Jewish national home were urged in a program presented to the opening session of a country-wide convention of the Palestine Communists Party, which was attended by 70 delegates including six uniformed men.
The program stated that Jewish-Arab rapprochament will come when both Jews and Arabs “understand the principles of democracy,” and when the Arabs comprehend the advantages that the entire country will derive from the establishment of a Jewish national home.
