A new Communist-sponsored Arab Front made its appearance in Acre last night at a meeting held in the local Communist Party headquarters after a hall was refused the organizers of the new organization. The meeting, which was small because the military authorities imposed last minute restrictions on the movement of a number of Arab notables invited to the function, was addressed by Tewfik Toubi, Arab Communist deputy in Knesset.
The Arab Front adopted a number of resolutions patterned along the lines of the Communist Party platform demanding: the return of Arab refugees to their homes; abolition of military government in Arab areas of Israel; return of lands confiscated from Arabs; return of Arabs to villages taken over by the military government, and end to the alleged discrimination against Arab citizens of Israel.
