Evidence which may lead to a conclusion that the Communists had a hand in the incitement and organization of the anti-Jewish Arab rebellion in Palestine was found by government officials who made a search in Jerusalem and its environs. The police discovered at Sarafa, an Arab village, a Communist nest. Communist proclamations, calling on “all Palestine to rise against British military imperialism” were confiscated.
