A call for a general insurrection throughout Palestine immediately the British Government publishes its White Paper was issued here today by “The Palestine Arab Rebel High Command.” The call was contained in a circular signed by the “Secretary General” of the so-called rebel command. The first circular of the group, urging an intensified terrorist campaign to make Palestine an independent Arab state, was issued three days ago.
According to the circular distributed today the rebel movement has new arms and is well-supplied with money. It was understood that the sponsors of the new group – thus far anonymous – are connected with neither the extremist Arab faction headed by the exiled Mufti of Jerusalem nor the moderates who follow the leadership of Ragheb Bey Nashashibi.
The Government is deducting 417 certificates from the next regular monthly allotment of 1,000 permits issuable to Jews immigrating to Palestine, it was disclosed here today. The deductions correspond to the number of illegal entries recently discovered in the Holy Land.
