The hunt for the murderers of a Jewish policeman, Sergeant Moshe Rosenfeld, having thus far proved fruitless, the Palestine Government is planning to announce a reward of $1,000 for their capture, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learned today.
Rosenfeld was killed November 7 at Affuleh, near the Jewish colony of Ein Chared, while searching for thieves who had been looting grapefruit groves. An Arab gang is believed to have committed the murder.
