A sub-committee of the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry on Palestine was expected to arrive in Berlin from London today or tomorrow, the British news service in Germany reported today. Other sub-committees will visit the British, United States and French zones.
(The members of the committee were criticized today for the “arrogance” and “downright impoliteness” that characterized its public hearings, in London in a dispatch from there appearing in the New York Herald-Tribune.
(The correspondent, Don Cook, says that the committee has “by the tactics of some of its members aggravated a situation already delicate, considerably dampening hopes, inevitably pinned on the inquiry.” He added that there has been “something of the stamp of a police line-up in the way the inquiry committee has been conducted by some of its members.”)
