The cancellation of the Palestine elections can hardly be described as a victory for the Arabs, says a statement circulated by Reuter’s today, obviously inspired from official sources. No trouble is anticipated as a result of the step taken, which is held to have been "absolutely necessary."

The DAILY EXPRESS declares this statement is at variance with the facts.
