Despite continued racial rioting in Palestine, 400 Jews left here for the Holy Land today to make their homes there. The Palestine Office said not one of the previously registered emigrants had hesitated about leaving because of the disorders.

The consensus of Jewish newspapers on the rioting is that the Jewish people would support their “advance guard in Palestine,” undeterred by recent events. The slaying of Jews will stir the Jewish people to renewed activity, they said in editorials.
