The resolution demands a more liberal immigration policy for Palestine, points out to Great Britain that much more money would flow into the Keren. Hayesod if it beeama perfectly dear that a genuine Jewish national home was being established, and calls upon the government to delay no longer the Palestine national loan. Asks Action Be Hastened. "Taking grateful note," says the resolution, "of the magnanimous methods of President Coolidge to the American Jewish. Congress through Dr. Stephen S. Wise^ expressing his sympathy with, the policy of upbuilding in. Palestine, the Jewish, national home; "Taking note also of the resolutions of the recent Zionist World Congress* at Karlsbad," stating "that Jewish emigration to Palestine is too severefeat-the administration of Palestine shall carry out the obligation assumed under the mandate, which provides that it shal encourage, in co-operation with the Jewish Agency, close settlement by Jews on the land, including state lands and waste land not required for public purposes, and if there has been discrimination against Jewish schools in the matter of subsidization; • "This congress, with full recognition of the difficulties which hamper the. noble task undertaken by the British government, respectfully and gratefully asks it to do all that possible to remedy the grievances eipressed by the Karlsbad congress. Desire for Peace With Arabs. "At the same time the Congress expresses to the Arabs its earned desire for peace and good will and brotherly co-operation in rebuilding for civilization the ruined, neglected, half-empty, yet supremely historical land which both races inhabit. It asks them to recognize that for more than 1,850 years the dreams and hopes and prayers of the Jewish people have been centered upon this land, and thst the return of large numbers of Jews to it would brine a blessing to all its inhabitants and would build a bridge of mutual understanding between th< East and West. "We further trust that the Arab of Palestine mil meet their Jewish kinsmen in a fraternal spirit and will recognize the spirit of the Balfou declaration so that all sections of the population shall enjoy freedom together with a prospect of attaining: ultimate autonomy and membership in the' League of Nations. "Finally, the Congress extends it fraternal greetings to all sections -o: Christianity and Islam interested the Holy Land. We trust and pray that Jerusalem will be rebuilt in our day and become the center of peace for all nations, races and religions, as our great Jewisi prophets predicted, and that the darkness which at this time threatens the extinction of civilization will pass away, and we will work unitedly for the common good cf all mankind."

" In view of the Arab rejection, Ifc says, the.only course open is for the Palestine government to utilize the ample .powers conferred by the mandate and continue the old pojdcv daspite the opposition of the Arabs. If the Arabs refuse to help, it concludes, "we must and will fulfill the understanding ourselves." . Jerusalem. (J, T. A.) The~ A n * delegation heard from the lips of Sir Herbert- his plan which he hoped •would put an end to their opposition. The delegation, however, with little hesitation rejected it. The -plan'of the High Commissioner as previously intimated -provided for an Arab agency analagous to the'Jewish Agency. ' • . Segarding^ the Balf our Beci&mti&a* the Higfe ^Commissioner said that an international obligation and •wras no way to recede from it. In view of the special position established for the Jews by means of the Jewish Agency, the government he said, offered to place the Arabs OR the same footing by creating an Arab agency. Samuel urged that it should be accepted until a fully representative council is established. The Arab agency, he said, woaM control the immigration by reason of the fact that there would be five Arabs on the special committee dealing with immigration and only one Jew. By creating an Arab agency? there would be insured absolute impartiality-as..between the government and the Arabs and the Jews. The agency, he said, would not be legislative, hut advisory, equivalenttg the Zionist Organization. . ' "When Samuel concluded,, the-Arab delegation announced that the p£o posals wer& not satisfactory. It xa« iterated its -demand for a coustitational government. , "I am -sorry,** Samuel rejoined. 41 am requested to say by his majesty's government that they regard the establishment of an Arab agency as *. very great advance in the direction «f meeting the wishes of the Arab population and consider that it should bft accepted as a settlement of the points in controversy/'
