Haj Amin Al Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem, and more than 200 members of the Arab Youth Federation attended the commemoration exercises held here as a tribute to the Arabs killed last October during the illegal demonstrations sponsored by the Arab Executive.

The meeting was held in the Greek Orthodox School. Addresses were delivered by four youth leaders — Jacob Ghussein, Nimr el Masri, Saad| Khalil and Saliba Arida, all of whom were arrested in connection with the disturbances.
