A warning to Dr. Chaim Arlosoroff, the successor of Col. Kisch in Palestine that his efforts to bring about peace between the Jews and the Arabs will not be successful, is made today in the Arab paper, Falastin, on the eve of the Arab Press’ seven day’s strike.
Pointing out that the duty of Dr. Arlosoroff will hence-forth be a two-fold one; to represent the Jewish Community before the Government, and at the same time to reach an understanding with the Arabs for establishing Arab-Jewish friendly relations, the paper says:
“What Dr. Arlosoroff will do with the Government is his own business. But with us Arabs he is certainly not likely to succeed. The Almighty knews we shall never come to an agreement with the Zionists as long as they desire our expulsion from the land.
“We shall never make peace with the Jews as long as Zionism exists,” the paper continues. “We shall never come to an agreement with them, as long as there is a Zionist Executive and Zionist branches in all parts of the world. We can inform Dr. Arlsoroff right now that failure awaits him,” the paper concludes.
