Resolutions endorsing the Zionist Executive’s tactics in combating the new British policy on Palestine and condemning the shedding of the blood of innocent persons were adopted today at a special session of the Palestine subcommittee of the Zionist General Council.

The committee also supported the Executive’s line of action designed to strengthen the economic defenses of the Palestine Jewish Community. Its resolution condemning violence declared it “stained Israel’s fight” for a homeland.

A committee of 11 was named to cooperate with the Executive and Jewish National Council representatives to work out a detailed program aimed against the British Palestine policy. The program will be submitted to a meeting of the Zionist General Council next week.

Six Arabs were wounded today when a bomb exploded in a mail box on the garden wall of the German Schneller School here.
