It is not true that the High Commissioner has expressed himself dissatisfied with the negotiations in progress between the Jewish Agency and the Cabinet Committee or that he has expressed an opinion that the White Paper should not be whittled down, declares an official statement which has been sent to the “Palestine Bulletin” denying a report to this effect which it had quoted this morning from the Arab paper “Al Hayat”. The official statement further repudiates a suggestion made by “Al Hayat” that the High Commissioner said that he would resign if the negotiations between the Jewish Agency and the Government should lead to the withdrawal of the White Paper.
