SEEK ORIGIN OF AMMUNITION USED IN PALESTINE OUTBREAK

Efforts are being made by the military in Palestine to trace the origin of ammunition used by the Arab attackers in the recent outbreak, the Jerusalem correspondent of the London “Daily Mail” reports. The ammunition was made to fit British rifles, but does not bear a British mark. It is believed this ammunition was supplied from an outside source, the correspondent writes, in order to discredit the British by the suggestion that anyone killed by this ammunition was shot by the British soldiers.
