The projected Palestine Legislature and the proposed Arab-Jewish Round Table Conference were discussed today at the continued session of the Palestine Jewish Elected Assembly (Assefath Hanivcharim). The Revisionist spokesman, Mr. Weinstein, demanded unqualified opposition to both as a condition for the continued participation of his Party in the united organisation of Palestine Jewry.
Dr. Mossinsohn, speaking on behalf of the General Zionists, declared himself against non-co-operation.
Mr. Ben Gurion, speaking for Palestine Labour, said that he was in favour of constitutional changes in Palestine, provided they were effected with the consent of both Arabs and Jews, and with proper safeguards so that there should be no domination by one people over the other.
Mr. M. M. Ussischkin, the head of the Jewish National Fund, said that he deprecated the minimising of Zionism, and urged that they should strive rather to obtain better conditions.
