The Arabic paper, Ahram, reports today that British representatives at Geneva had proposed to delegations from other countries three possible solutions to Arab-Jewish difficulties in Palestine, as follows:
1- Jewish immigration to be based on an understanding between Arabs and Jews under Groat Britain’s supervision. (The paper said this solution was unlikely because Britain did not believe in the possibility of such an agreement.)
2- Carrying out the Balfour (Jewish homeland) Declaration on new lines, the main purposes of which would be not to permit the Jews to monopolize Palestine’s natural resources and to base both Arab and Jewish immigration on economic absorptive capacity. (This proposal, it was said, was not favored by the governments interested in a large Jewish emigration from their respective territories.)
3- Partition of Palestine between Arabs and Jews. (Prominent Zionists have given assurances that modern scientific methods make possible the colonization of 3,000,000 Jews in a Jewish State which would be established if the Holy Land were partitioned, Ahram said.)
