A big mass meeting to protest against the barring of Jewish immigration to Palestine was held here last night at the Scala Theatre.
Speakers belonging to various sections of the Zionist movement complained of the action of the Palestine Government in issuing to the Jewish Agency only 350 immigration certificates for the coming half-year, and criticised the Jewish Agency for accepting such a small number of certificates.
