Although signs are plentiful that the boycott agitation conducted by the Arabs against the Jewish shopkeepers is relaxing, the Jewish store-keepers of Jerusalem continue to complain of the rough treatment received by Arab customers venturing into Jewish stores. It is charged that hired agitators are molesting them. Circulars signed “Blackhand” and threatening Arabs patronizing Jewish merchants were distributed in Haifa on Friday.
