Strong attacks on the Jews and British were voiced in Jaffa today at ceremonies marking the first anniversary of the establishment of Najada, Arab “defense” organization.
One of the speakers at the meeting told the members of Najada “to hold your selves in readiness to strike.” Over 3,000 members of the “army” marched in the parade which proceeded the meeting. They were joined by hundreds of members of the Arab Legion, clad in civilian garb.
