All Dutch citizens between 19 and 27, residing in Palestine, were ordered today to join the Dutch colors. The order was made public by the Dutch consulate.

Extensive and successful anti-aircraft and anti-parachutist maneuvers were carried out today in Palestine, following the appearance this week of enemy planes over Haifa and Tel Aviv. The maneuvers proved that Palestine is now well protected against possible enemy air raids.
