A proposal that all newspaper owners in Palestine discontinue the publication of their papers until the government definitely clears up what is printable and what is not is made today by the Arab paper, Al Hayat, in connection with the suspension of the Hebrew daily, Doar Hayom and the Arab daily, Falastin.
The Jewish National Council is expected to protest the suspension of the Doar Hayom while Mouzza Kazim Pasha, president of the Arab Executive, today saw Mark Aitchison Young, the chief secretary, and protested against the suspension of the Falastin. Meanwhile another Arab paper, Seraat Al Mouskatim, which is under Moslem ownership, today opened its columns to the staff of the Falastin for the duration of the latter’s suspension.
